حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الصَّبَّاحِ ، حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ ، أَخْبَرَنِي أَبِي ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِي قِلَابَةَ ، عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ اللَّجْلَاجِ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : رَأَيْتُ رَبِّي فِي أَحْسَنِ صُورَةٍ ، قَالَ لِي : يَا مُحَمَّدُ ، قُلْتُ : لَبَّيْكَ وَسَعْدَيْكَ ، قَالَ : فِيمَ يَخْتَصِمُ الْمَلَأُ الْأَعْلَى ؟ قُلْتُ : رَبِّ لَا أَدْرِي ، فَوَضَعَ يَدَهُ عَلَى كَتِفَيَّ فَوَجَدْتُ بَرْدَهَا بَيْنَ ثَدْيَيَّ ، فَعَلِمْتُ مَا بَيْنَ الْمَشْرِقِ وَالْمَغْرِبِ ، فَقَالَ : يَا مُحَمَّدُ ، فِيمَ يَخْتَصِمُ الْمَلَأُ الْأَعْلَى ؟ قُلْتُ : فِي الْكَفَّارَاتِ : الْمَشْيُ عَلَى الْأَقْدَامِ فِي الْجُمُعَاتِ ، وَإِسْبَاغُ الْوُضُوءِ فِي الْمَكْرُوهَاتِ ، وَانْتِظَارُ الصَّلَاةِ بَعْدَ الصَّلَاةِ إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ ، فَمَنْ حَافَظَ عَلَيْهِنَّ عَاشَ بِخَيْرٍ ، وَمَاتَ بِخَيْرٍ ، وَكَانَ مِنْ ذُنُوبِهِ كَيَوْمِ وَلَدَتْهُ أُمُّهُ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I saw my Lord in the most beautiful form. Allah Almighty said to me: 'O Muhammad!' I said: 'Labbayka wa sa'dayk' (Here I am, ever ready to obey You). Allah Almighty said: 'About what are the angels of the highest assembly disputing?' I said: 'My Lord, I do not know.' So Allah Almighty placed His Hand between my shoulders, and I felt its coolness in my chest, and everything between the east and the west became clear to me (and I came to know it). Then Allah Almighty said: 'O Muhammad, now tell Me: about what are the angels of the highest assembly disputing?' I said: 'About the expiations (the deeds that wipe out sins); (and they are): walking on foot to the Friday prayers, performing ablution thoroughly even in times of hardship (such as severe cold), and waiting for one prayer after another. Whoever keeps to these deeds lives in goodness and dies in goodness, and becomes as free of his sins as he was on the day his mother gave birth to him.'"
