(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا
رَوْحٌ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا
حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ ، عَنْ
ثَابِتٍ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنِي
ابْنُ عُمَرَ ، عَنْ
أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ
أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ ، أَنَّ
أَبَا سَلَمَةَ حَدَّثَهُمْ ، أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ : " إِذَا أَصَابَتْ أَحَدَكُمْ مُصِيبَةٌ فَلْيَقُلْ : إِنَّا لِلَّهِ وَإِنَّا إِلَيْهِ رَاجِعُونَ ، اللَّهُمَّ عِنْدَكَ أَحْتَسِبُ مُصِيبَتِي فَأْجُرْنِي فِيهَا ، وَأَبْدِلْنِي بِهَا خَيْرًا مِنْهَا " فَلَمَّا قُبِضَ أَبُو سَلَمَةَ خَلَفَنِي اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ فِي أَهْلِي خَيْرًا مِنْهُ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) that once Sayyiduna Abu Salamah narrated this hadith before her: The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: When any of you is afflicted by a calamity, he should say "Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji'un" and then supplicate: "O Allah, I endure this calamity before You seeking reward, so grant me reward for it and grant me a better substitute for it." Then, when Sayyiduna Abu Salamah passed away, Allah granted me someone better than him in family—the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him).
