Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 3587

وَعَنْ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - يَقُولُ : " رَجُلَانِ مِنْ أُمَّتِي يَقُومُ أَحَدُهُمَا مِنَ اللَّيْلِ فَيُعَالِجُ نَفْسَهُ إِلَى الطَّهُورِ وَعَلَيْهِ عُقَدٌ فَيَتَوَضَّأُ فَإِذَا وَضَّأَ يَدَهُ انْحَلَّتْ عُقْدَةٌ وَإِذَا وَضَّأَ وَجْهَهُ انْحَلَّتْ عُقْدَةٌ وَإِذَا مَسَحَ بِرَأْسِهِ انْحَلَّتْ عُقْدَةٌ وَإِذَا وَضَّأَ رِجْلَيْهِ انْحَلَّتْ عُقْدَةٌ فَيَقُولُ الرَّبُّ - عَزَّ وَجَلَّ - الَّذِي وَرَاءَ الْحِجَابِ : انْظُرُوا إِلَى عَبْدِي هَذَا يُعَالِجُ نَفْسَهُ مَا سَأَلَنِي عَبْدِي هَذَا فَهُوَ لَهُ " .
رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ ، وَفِيهِ ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ وَفِيهِ كَلَامٌ .
Sayyiduna Uqbah bin Amir (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "There are two kinds of people from my Ummah. One of them gets up at night and prepares himself for purification while there are knots tied upon him. He performs ablution: when he washes his hands, a knot is undone; when he washes his face, a knot is undone; when he wipes his head, a knot is undone; when he washes his feet, a knot is undone. Then my Lord, from behind the veil, says: 'Look at this servant of Mine, who is preparing himself for this! Whatever My servant asks of Me, he will receive it.'"
Ahmad recorded it; its chain contains Ibn Lahi'ah, and there is criticism concerning him.
