Hadith 17476

حَدَّثَنَا بَهْزٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ ، عَنْ يَعْلَى بْنِ عَطَاءٍ ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ بْنِ الْأَسْوَدِ ، عن أَبِيهِ ، قَالَ : حَجَجْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَجَّةَ الْوَدَاعِ ، قَالَ : فَصَلَّى بِنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ صَلَاةَ الصُّبْحِ أَوْ الْفَجْرِ ، قَالَ : ثُمَّ انْحَرَفَ جَالِسًا ، وَاسْتَقْبَلَ النَّاسَ بِوَجْهِهِ ، فَإِذَا هُوَ بِرَجُلَيْنِ مِنْ وَرَاءِ النَّاسِ لَمْ يُصَلِّيَا مَعَ النَّاسِ ، فَقَالَ : " ائْتُونِي بِهَذَيْنِ الرَّجُلَيْنِ " . قَالَ : فَأُتِيَ بِهِمَا تَرْعَدُ فَرَائِصُهُمَا ، فَقَالَ : " مَا مَنَعَكُمَا أَنْ تُصَلِّيَا مَعَ النَّاسِ ؟ " قَالَا : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، إِنَّا كُنَّا قَدْ صَلَّيْنَا فِي الرِّحَالِ . قَالَ : " فَلَا تَفْعَلَا ، إِذَا صَلَّى أَحَدُكُمْ فِي رَحْلِهِ ، ثُمَّ أَدْرَكَ الصَّلَاةَ مَعَ الْإِمَامِ ، فَلْيُصَلِّهَا مَعَهُ ، فَإِنَّهَا لَهُ نَافِلَةٌ " . قَالَ : فَقَالَ أَحَدُهُمَا : اسْتَغْفِرْ لِي يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ . فَاسْتَغْفَرَ لَهُ ، قَالَ : وَنَهَضَ النَّاسُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَنَهَضْتُ مَعَهُمْ ، وَأَنَا يَوْمَئِذٍ أَشَبُّ الرِّجَالِ وَأَجْلَدُهُ . قَالَ : فَمَا زِلْتُ أَزْحَمُ النَّاسَ حَتَّى وَصَلْتُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَأَخَذْتُ بِيَدِهِ فَوَضَعْتُهَا إِمَّا عَلَى وَجْهِي أَوْ صَدْرِي ، قَالَ : فَمَا وَجَدْتُ شَيْئًا أَطْيَبَ وَلَا أَبْرَدَ مِنْ يَدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ . قَالَ : وَهُوَ يَوْمَئِذٍ فِي مَسْجِدِ الْخَيْفِ . .
It is narrated from Hazrat Yazid bin Aswad (may Allah be pleased with him) that I participated in the Farewell Pilgrimage with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). I performed the Fajr prayer with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in the Mosque of Khaif. When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) finished the prayer, he saw that at the end of the mosque two men were sitting and had not participated in the prayer with him. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Bring both of them to me." When they were brought, they were trembling with fear. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked, "Why did you not pray with us?" They replied, "O Messenger of Allah! (peace and blessings be upon him) We had already performed the prayer in our tents." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Do not do so. If you have already performed the prayer in your tents, and then you reach the mosque at the time of congregation, then join in the prayer, for it will be counted as a voluntary prayer." Then one of them said, "O Messenger of Allah! (peace and blessings be upon him) Pray for my forgiveness." So the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) prayed for him. Then people began to get up and go towards the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and I also sat with them. At that time, I was a strong young man. Making my way through the crowd, I reached the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and took his blessed hand and began to rub it on my face or chest. I have never seen a hand more fragrant and cooler than the blessed hand of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). At that time, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was in the Mosque of Khaif.
