حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ بُكَيْرٍ الطَّيَالِسِيُّ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ عُكَّاشَةَ الْكَرْمَانِيَّ ، يَقُولُ : أَخْبَرَنَا مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ حَمَّادٍ الْكَرْمَانِيُّ ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ ، قَالَ : مَنِ اغْتَسَلَ لَيْلَةَ الْجُمُعَةِ وَصَلَّى رَكْعَتَيْنِ فَقَرَأَ فِيهِمَا أَلْفَ مَرَّةٍ : قُلْ هُوَ اللهُ أَحَدٌ ، ثُمَّ نَامَ عَلَى طُهْرٍ رَأَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي الْمَنَامِ I " قَالَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُكَّاشَةَ : دُمْتُ عَلَيْهِ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ سَنَتَيْنِ أَغْتَسِلُ فِي كُلِّ لَيْلَةِ جُمُعَةٍ ، أُصَلِّي رَكْعَتَيْنِ أَقْرَأُ فِيهِمَا : قُلْ هُوَ اللهُ أَحَدٌ أَلْفَ مَرَّةٍ ، طَمَعًا أَنْ أَرَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي الْمَنَامِ ، فَصَلَّيْتُ لَيْلَةَ جُمُعَةٍ رَكْعَتَيْنِ ، قَرَأْتُ فِيهِمَا : قُلْ هُوَ اللهُ أَحَدٌ أَلْفَ مَرَّةٍ ، فَلَمَّا أَخَذْتُ مَضْجَعِي أَصَابَنِي حُلْمٌ ، فَقُمْتُ فَاغْتَسَلْتُ ، وَصَلَّيْتُ رَكْعَتَيْنِ ، قَرَأْتُ فِيهِمَا : قُلْ هُوَ اللهُ أَحَدٌ أَلْفَ مَرَّةٍ ، فَلَمَّا فَرَغْتُ مِنْهُمَا كَانَ وَقْتَ السَّحَرِ اسْتَنَدْتُ إِلَى الْحَائِطِ وَوَجْهِي إِلَى الْقِبْلَةِ ، فَدَخَلَ عَلَيَّ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَى النَّعْتِ وَالصِّفَةِ ، وَعَلَيْهِ بُرْدَانِ مِنْ هَذِهِ الْبُرُودِ الْيَمَانِيَةِ ، قَدْ تَأَزَّرَ بِوَاحِدٍ وَارْتَدَى بِالْآخَرِ ، فَجَاءَ فَاسْتَوَى عَلَى رِجْلِهِ الْيُسْرَى ، وَأَقَامَ الْيُمْنَى I " ، قَالَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُكَّاشَةَ : I " فَأَرَدْتُ أَنْ أَقُولَ : حَيَّاكَ اللهُ ، فَبَدَأَنِي ، فَقَالَ : حَيَّاكَ اللهُ ، وَكُنْتُ أُحِبُّ أَنْ أَرَى ثَنِيَّتَهُ الْمَكْسُورَةَ ، فَتَبَسَّمَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَنَظَرْتُ إِلَى رَبَاعِيَتِهِ الْمَكْسُورَةِ . فَقُلْتُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، إِنَّ الْفُقَهَاءَ قَدْ خَلَطُوا عَلَيَّ ، وَعِنْدِي أَصْلَانِ مِنَ السُّنَّةِ ، فَأَعْرِضُهُنَّ عَلَيْكَ ؟ قَالَ : نَعَمْ ، قُلْتُ : الرِّضَا بِقَضَاءِ اللهِ ، وَالتَّسْلِيمُ لِأَمْرِ اللهِ ، وَالصَّبْرُ عَلَى حُكْمِهِ ، وَالْأَخْذُ بِمَا أَمَرَ اللهُ ، وَالنَّهْيُ عَمَّا نَهَى اللهُ ، وَإِخْلَاصُ الْعَمَلِ لِلهِ ، وَالْإِيمَانُ بِالْقَدَرِ خَيْرِهِ وَشَرِّهِ مِنَ اللهِ ، وَتَرْكُ الْمِرَاءِ وَالْخُصُومَاتِ فِي الدِّينِ ، وَالْمَسْحُ عَلَى الْخُفَّيْنِ ، وَالْجِهَادُ مَعَ كُلِّ خَلِيفَةٍ ، وَصَلَاةُ الْجُمُعَةِ مَعَ كُلِّ بَرٍّ وَفَاجِرٍ ، وَالصَّلَاةُ عَلَى مَنْ مَاتَ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْقِبْلَةِ ، وَالْإِيمَانُ قَوْلٌ وَعَمَلٌ يَزِيدُ وَيَنْقُصُ ، وَالْقُرْآنُ كَلَامُ اللهِ غَيْرُ مَخْلُوقٍ ، وَالصَّبْرُ تَحْتَ لِوَاءِ السُّلْطَانِ عَلَى مَا كَانَ فِيهِ مِنْ عَدْلٍ أَوْ جَوْرٍ ، وَلَا يُخْرَجُ عَلَى الْأُمَرَاءِ بِالسَّيْفِ وَإِنْ جَارُوا ، وَلَا يُنْزَلُ أَحَدٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْقِبْلَةِ جَنَّةً وَلَا نَارًا ، وَلَا يُكَفَّرُ أَحَدٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ التَّوْحِيدِ وَإِنْ عَمِلُوا بِالْكَبَائِرِ ، وَالْكَفُّ عَنْ مَسَاوِئِ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، وَأَفْضَلُ النَّاسِ بَعْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ ، ثُمَّ عُمَرُ I " . قَالَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُكَّاشَةَ : I " فَوَقَفْتُ عِنْدَ عُثْمَانَ ، وَعَلِيٍّ ، فَإِنِّي هِبْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ أُفَضِّلَ عُثْمَانَ عَلَى عَلِيٍّ ، قُلْتُ فِي نَفْسِي : عَلِيٌّ ابْنُ عَمِّهِ ، وَعُثْمَانُ خَتَنُهُ ، فَتَبَسَّمَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَأَنَّهُ قَدْ عَلِمَ ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : عُثْمَانُ ، ثُمَّ عَلِيٌّ ، قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : I " هَذِهِ السُّنَّةُ ، تَمَسَّكْ بِهَا ، وَضَمَّ أَصَابِعَهُ ، وَعَقَدَ عَلَى ثَلَاثَةٍ وَتِسْعِينَ ، وَضَمَّ إِبْهَامَهُ فَوْقَ أَصَابِعَهُ I " . قَالَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُكَّاشَةَ : I " عَرَضْتُ عَلَيْهِ هَذِهِ الْأُصُولَ ثَلَاثَ لَيَالٍ ، كُلَّ لَيْلَةٍ أَقِفُ عِنْدَ عَلِيٍّ وَعُثْمَانَ ، فَتَبَسَّمَ عِنْدَ وُقُوفِي ، كَأَنَّهُ قَدْ عَلِمَ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، ثُمَّ يَقُولُ : عُثْمَانُ ثُمَّ عَلِيٌّ ، تَمَسَّكْ بِهَا I " . قَالَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُكَّاشَةَ : I " كُنْتُ أَعْرِضُ عَلَيْهِ هَذِهِ الْأُصُولَ وَعَيْنَاهُ تَهْطِلَانِ بُكَاءً ، إِنْ قُلْتُ : وَالْكَفُّ عَنْ مَسَاوِئِ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، انْتَحَبَ حَتَّى عَلَا صَوْتُهُ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ I " . قَالَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُكَّاشَةَ : I " وَجَدْتُ بَعْدَ رُؤْيَايَ حَلَاوَةً فِي فَمِي وَقَلْبِي ، فَكُنْتُ ثَمَانِيَةَ أَيَّامٍ لَا آكُلُ طَعَامًا ، حَتَّى ضَعُفْتُ عَنْ صَلَاةِ الْفَرِيضَةِ ، فَلَمَّا أَكَلْتُ الطَّعَامَ ذَهَبَتْ تِلْكَ الْحَلَاوَةُ مِنْ فَمِي I " .
Imam al-Zuhri (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "Whoever takes a ritual bath (ghusl) on the night before Friday, prays two rak'ahs and recites in them 'Say: He is Allah, the One' one thousand times, and then sleeps in a state of purity, will see the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in a dream."
Muhammad bin Ukkashah said: "I kept acting upon this for more than two years. Every night before Friday I would take a ritual bath, pray two rak'ahs and recite in them 'Say: He is Allah, the One' one thousand times, in the hope of seeing the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in a dream. One night before Friday I prayed two rak'ahs and recited in them 'Say: He is Allah, the One' one thousand times. Then, when I lay down on my bed, I had a wet dream. So I got up, took a ritual bath, prayed two rak'ahs and recited in them 'Say: He is Allah, the One' one thousand times. When I finished them it was the time of suhur, and I sat leaning against the wall, facing the qiblah. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came to me with his well-known features and attributes. He (peace and blessings be upon him) was wearing two of these Yemeni cloaks; he had tied one as a waist-wrap and draped the other over himself. He (peace and blessings be upon him) came and sat on his left foot, keeping his right foot upright."
Muhammad bin Ukkashah said: "I intended to say 'Hayyak Allah' (May Allah grant you life), but he (peace and blessings be upon him) said it first and said: 'Hayyak Allah' (May Allah grant you life). I had wished to see his broken tooth, and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) smiled, and I saw his broken ruba'iyah (tooth). I said: 'O Messenger of Allah! The jurists have confused me. I have two foundational principles of the Sunnah; may I present them to you?' He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'Yes.' I said: 'Being pleased with the decree of Allah, submitting to the command of Allah, being patient with His judgement, holding to what Allah has commanded and refraining from what He has forbidden, making one's deeds sincerely for Allah, believing in destiny, its good and its bad, that it is from Allah, abandoning disputation and quarrelling in religion, wiping over leather socks, waging jihad with every caliph, praying the Friday prayer with every (imam), righteous or sinful, praying the funeral prayer over whoever dies from the people of the qiblah, (believing that) faith is speech and action, increasing and decreasing, (that) the Qur'an is the Speech of Allah, not created, being patient under the banner of the ruler, whether there is justice or oppression in it, (that) no one should rise against the rulers with the sword even if they oppress, (that) no one from the people of the qiblah should be definitively assigned to Paradise or Hell, (that) no one from the people of tawhid should be declared a disbeliever even if they commit major sins, refraining from (mentioning) the faults (and slips) of the Companions of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), and (that) the best of people after the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) is Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him), then Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him).'"
Muhammad bin Ukkashah said: "I stopped at Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) and Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him), because I felt awe of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) at giving Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) precedence over Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him). I said to myself: Ali is his (peace and blessings be upon him) cousin and Uthman is his (peace and blessings be upon him) son-in-law. Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) smiled, as if he (peace and blessings be upon him) knew what was in my heart, and then said: 'Uthman, then Ali.' Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'This is the Sunnah; hold fast to it.' And he (peace and blessings be upon him) closed his fingers, formed the number ninety-three and placed his thumb over his fingers."
Muhammad bin Ukkashah said: "For three nights I presented these principles to him (peace and blessings be upon him). Every night I would stop at the mention of Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) and Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him), and at my stopping he (peace and blessings be upon him) would smile, as if he (peace and blessings be upon him) knew, and then say: 'Uthman, then Ali; hold fast to it.'"
Muhammad bin Ukkashah said: "Whenever I presented these principles to him (peace and blessings be upon him), tears would be flowing continuously from his (peace and blessings be upon him) eyes, and when I said: 'Refraining from (mentioning) the faults of the Companions of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him)', he (peace and blessings be upon him) wept so much that his (peace and blessings be upon him) voice rose."
Muhammad bin Ukkashah said: "After this dream I felt a sweetness in my mouth and my heart, so for eight days I did not eat any food, until I became too weak (to stand) for the obligatory prayer. Then, when I ate food, that sweetness left my mouth."
