٣٧١٤٢ - حدثنا وكيع عن طلحة بن يحيى قال: حدثني إبراهيم (١) بن محمد بن طلحة عن عبد اللَّه بن شداد قال: جاء ثلاثة (رهط) (٢) من بني (عذرة) (٣) إلى النبي ﷺ فأسلموا، قال: فقال النبي ﷺ: "من يكفيني هولاء؟ " قال: فقال طلحة: أنا، قال: فكانوا عندي، قال: فضرب على الناس بعث، قال: فخرج أحدهم فاستشهد، ثم ضرب بعث فخرج الثاني فيه فاستشهد، قال: وبقي الثالث حتى مات مريضا على فراشه، قال طلحة: فرأيت في النوم كأني أدخلت الجنة فرأيتهم أعرفهم بأسمائهم وسيماهم، قال: فإذا الذي مات على فراشه دخل أولهم، وإذا الثاني من (المستشهدين) (٤) على أثره، وإذا أولهم آخرهم، قال: فدخلني (من) (٥) ذلك، قال: فأتيت النبي ﷺ فذكرت ذلك له، فقال النبي ﷺ: " (ليس أحد عند اللَّه أفضل) (٦) من معمر يعمر في الإسلام لتهليله وتكبيره وتسبيحه وتحميده" (٧).
It is narrated from Hazrat Abdullah bin Shaddad that he says: Three people from the tribe of Banu Udhrah came to the service of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and accepted Islam. The narrator says: The Prophet asked, "Who will take care of these people on my behalf?" The narrator says: Hazrat Talha said, "I will." Talha says: So they stayed with me. He says that the people had to go on a journey. The narrator says: So one of them went out on a journey and was martyred. Then another journey came up, so the second man joined it and he too was martyred. The narrator says: The third man remained until he died on his bed due to illness. Hazrat Talha (may Allah be pleased with him) says: Then I saw in a dream that I had entered Paradise. I recognized those people by their names and signs. He says: So the man among them who had died on his bed entered Paradise before the other two. And the second martyr came after him. And the first martyr among them came last of all. The narrator says: Seeing this, a thought came to my heart. He says: I went to the service of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and mentioned this matter to him. So the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "No one has more virtue in the sight of Allah than the elderly person who spent his life in Islam, because he recited La ilaha illallah, Allahu Akbar, Subhan Allah, and Alhamdulillah."
