٤٧٠٠ - حدثنا أبو الأحوص عن أبي إسحاق عن مخارق قال: مررت بأبي ذر بالربذة (وأنا) حاج، فدخلت عليه منزله فرأيته (يصلي) (١) (يخفف) (٢) القيام قدر ما يقرأ: ﴿إِنَّا أَعْطَيْنَاكَ الْكَوْثَرَ﴾ و ﴿إِذَا جَاءَ نَصْرُ اللَّهِ وَالْفَتْحُ﴾، (ويكثر) (٣) الركوع والسجود فلما قضى صلاته قلت: يا أبا ذر رأيتك (تخفف) (٤) القيام وتكثر الركوع والسجود فقال: إني سمعت رسول اللَّه ﷺ يقول: "مَا مِنْ عَبْدٍ يَسْجَدُ للَّهِ سَجْدَةً أَوْ يَرْكَعُ (لَهُ) (٥) رَكْعَةً إِلَّا حَطَّ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ بهَا خَطِيئَتَهُ (وَرَفَعَ) (٦) لَهُ ⦗٥١٨⦘ بِهَا (دَرَجَةً) (٧) " (٨).
Hazrat Makharik narrates that I passed by Hazrat Abu Dharr at the place of Rabzah; I was intending to perform Hajj. I entered his house and saw that he was performing prayer, and his standing (qiyam) was so brief that in that duration Surah Al-Kawthar and Surah An-Nasr could be recited. He used to perform bowing (ruku) and prostration (sajdah) abundantly. When he completed his prayer, I said, "O Abu Dharr! I saw that you shorten the standing and increase the bowing and prostration; what is the reason for this?" He replied, "I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: Whenever a servant bows or prostrates for Allah, Allah forgives one of his sins and raises him one degree."
