(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ أَبِي ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ الْهَادِ ، أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ خَبَّابٍ حَدَّثَهُ ، أَنَّ أَبَا سَعِيدٍ الْخدْرِيَّ حَدَّثَهُ ، أَنَّ أُسَيْدَ بْنَ حُضَيْرٍ بَيْنَمَا هُوَ لَيْلَةً يَقْرَأُ فِي مِرْبَدِهِ ، إِذْ جَالَتْ فَرَسُهُ ، فَقَرَأَ ، ثُمَّ جَالَتْ أُخْرَى ، فَقَرَأَ ، ثُمَّ جَالَتْ أَيْضًا ، فَقَالَ أُسَيْدٌ : فَخَشِيتُ أَنْ تَطَأَ يَحْيَى يَعْنِي ابْنَهُ فَقُمْتُ إِلَيْهِ ، فَإِذَا مِثْلُ الظُّلَّةِ فَوْقَ رَأْسِي ، فِيهَا أَمْثَالُ السُّرُجِ ، عَرَجَتْ فِي الْجَوِّ حَتَّى مَا أَرَاهَا ، قَالَ : فَغَدَوْتُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقُلْتُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، بَيْنَمَا أَنَا الْبَارِحَةَ مِنْ جَوْفِ اللَّيْلِ ، أَقْرَأُ فِي مِرْبَدِي ، إِذْ جَالَتْ فَرَسِي ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " اقْرَأْ ابْنَ حُضَيْرٍ " ، قَالَ : فَقَرَأْتُ ، ثُمَّ جَالَتْ أَيْضًا ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " اقْرَأْ ابْنَ حُضَيْرٍ " ، فَقَرَأْتُ ، ثُمَّ جَالَتْ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " اقْرَأْ ابْنَ حُضَيْرٍ " ، قَالَ : فَانْصَرَفْتُ , وَكَانَ يَحْيَى قَرِيبًا مِنْهَا ، فَخَشِيتُ أَنْ تَطَأَهُ ، فَرَأَيْتُ مِثْلَ الظُّلَّةِ فِيهَا أَمْثَالُ السُّرُجِ ، عَرَجَتْ فِي الْجَوِّ حَتَّى مَا أَرَاهَا ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " تِلْكَ الْمَلَائِكَةُ ، كَانَتْ تَسْتَمِعُ لَكَ ، وَلَوْ قَرَأْتَ لَأَصْبَحَتْ رَآهَا النَّاسُ لَا تَسْتَتِرُ مِنْهُمْ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Saeed Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) that once Hazrat Usaid bin Hudair (may Allah be pleased with him) was reciting the Holy Qur'an at night in the enclosure of his camels when suddenly his horse began to startle. The more he recited, the more the horse startled. Hazrat Usaid (may Allah be pleased with him) says that he feared the horse might trample his son Yahya, so he went towards him. Suddenly, he felt a canopy above his head in which there were things like lamps. It ascended towards the sky until it disappeared from his sight. The next day, he presented himself before the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said, "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! Last night I was reciting the Holy Qur'an in my enclosure when suddenly my horse began to startle." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Ibn Hudair! You should have continued reciting." He replied, "I continued reciting, but its startling increased." Three times the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said the same. Finally, he said, "Since Yahya was near it, I feared it might trample him, so I went to him. At that time, I saw a canopy in which there were things like lamps. That canopy ascended towards the sky until it disappeared from my sight." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Those were angels who were listening to your recitation. If you had continued reciting, in the morning people would have seen them and nothing would have remained hidden from them."
