٨٩٠٣ - حدثنا أبو الأحوص عن أبي (يعفور) (١) عن أبي الصلت عن أبي عقرب الأسدي قال: أتينا ابن مسعود في داره فوجدناه فوق البيت فسمعناه يقول قبل أن ينزل: صدق اللَّه ورسوله، فقلنا له سمعناك تقول قبل أن تنزل صدق اللَّه ورسوله فقال: (إن) (٢) ليلة القدر في السبع من النصف الآخر وذلك أن الشمس تطلع يؤمئذ بيضاء لا شعاع لها فنظرت إلى الشمس فرأيتها كما (حدثت) (٣) فكبرت (٤).
Hazrat Abu Aqrab Asadi says that we went to Hazrat Ibn Masood, and we found him on the roof of a room. We heard him saying, before coming down, that Allah and His Messenger have spoken the truth. We said to him that we heard you say, before coming down, that Allah and His Messenger have spoken the truth. Hazrat Abdullah bin Masood (may Allah be pleased with him) said that the Night of Qadr is in the last seven nights of Ramadan, and its sign is that on that night, when the sun rises, it is white and without rays. When I saw the sun, I found it in the same state as I had been told, so I glorified Allah with happiness.
