Mu'jam Kabir Tabarani 8343 — Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amir appointed

حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ هَاشِمٍ الْبَغَوِيُّ، ثنا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ الْحَجَّاجِ السَّامِيُّ، ثنا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ زَيْدٍ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ، أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ عَامِرٍ، اسْتَعْمَلَ كِلَابَ بْنَ أُمَيَّةَ عَلَى الْأُبُلَّةِ، فَمَرَّ بِهِ عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي الْعَاصِ، فَقَالَ لَهُ: مَا شَأْنُكَ؟ فَقَالَ: اسْتُعْمِلْتُ عَلَى الْأُبُلَّةِ، فَقَالَ: أَلَا أُخْبِرُكَ؟ قَالَ: بَلَى، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: " إِنَّ فِي اللَّيْلِ سَاعَةً يُفْتَحُ فِيهَا أَبْوَابُ السَّمَاءِ فَيَقُولُ: هَلْ مِنْ سَائِلٍ أُعْطِيَهُ؟ هَلْ مِنْ دَاعٍ فَأَسْتَجِيبَ لَهُ؟ هَلْ مِنْ مُسْتَغْفِرٍ فَأَغْفِرَ لَهُ؟ "
قَالَ: " وَإِنَّ دَاوُدَ خَرَجَ ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ فَقَالَ: لَا يَسْأَلُ اللهَ اللَّيْلَةَ أَحَدٌ شَيْئًا إِلَّا أَعْطَاهُ إِلَّا سَاحِرٌ، أَوْ عَشَّارٌ " فَرَكِبَ فِي قُرْقُورٍ فَأَتَى عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ عَامِرٍ فَقَالَ: «اقْبَلْ عَمَلَكَ فَإِنَّ عُثْمَانَ بْنَ أَبِي الْعَاصِ حَدَّثَنِي كَذَا وَكَذَا»
It is narrated from Hasan al-Basri (may Allah have mercy on him) that Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amir appointed Kilab bin Umayyah as governor over al-Ubullah. Sayyiduna Uthman bin Abi al-As (may Allah be pleased with him) passed by him and asked him: "What is the matter with you?" He said: "I have been appointed governor over al-Ubullah." He said: "Shall I not tell you something?" He said: "Certainly." He said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "In the night there is an hour in which the gates of heaven are opened, and (Allah) says: Is there anyone asking, that I may give him? Is there anyone calling, that I may answer him? Is there anyone seeking forgiveness, that I may forgive him?" (The narrator) said: And that Dawud (peace be upon him) went out one night and said: Tonight no one will ask Allah for anything but that He will give it to him, except a sorcerer or a tithe-collector (an oppressive official). So he (the listener) boarded a small boat, came to Abdullah bin Amir and said: "Take back your post, for Uthman bin Abi al-As (may Allah be pleased with him) has told me such and such."
