Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah

Hazrat Abdur Rahman bin Abi Laila (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) made supplication for Hazrat Abdullah bin Rawahah (may Allah be pleased with him): "O Allah! Increase him in obedience—towards Your obedience and towards the obedience of Your Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him)."

Hazrat Qais, may Allah have mercy on him, narrates that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said to Hazrat Abdullah bin Rawahah, may Allah be pleased with him: "Why do you not move our mount?" So Abdullah, may Allah be pleased with him, replied: "Indeed, I have left my poetry." Hazrat Umar bin Khattab, may Allah be pleased with him, said: "Listen and obey." So he, may Allah be pleased with him, got down and began to drive the mount of the Prophet ﷺ while reciting these verses: "O Allah! If it were not for You, we would not have been guided, nor would we have given charity, nor would we have prayed. So send down tranquility and mercy upon us, and make our feet firm if we meet the enemy. Surely, the disbelievers have transgressed against us." Upon this, the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "O Allah! Have mercy on him." Hazrat Umar, may Allah be pleased with him, said: "Paradise has become obligatory."
