اُردوEn
حَدَّثَنَا زَيْدُ بْنُ الْحُبَابِ ، حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ ، حَدَّثَنِي نُعَيْمُ بْنُ زِيَادٍ أَبُو طَلْحَةَ الْأَنْمَارِيُّ ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ النُّعْمَانَ بْنَ بَشِيرٍ يَقُولُ عَلَى مِنْبَرِ حِمْصَ ، " قُمْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَيْلَةَ ثَلَاثٍ وَعِشْرِينَ فِي شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ إِلَى ثُلُثِ اللَّيْلِ الْأَوَّلِ ، ثُمَّ قُمْنَا مَعَهُ لَيْلَةَ خَمْسٍ وَعِشْرِينَ إِلَى نِصْفِ اللَّيْلِ ، ثُمَّ قَامَ بِنَا لَيْلَةَ سَبْعٍ وَعِشْرِينَ ، حَتَّى ظَنَنَّا أَنْ لَا نُدْرِكَ الْفَلَاحَ " . قَالَ : وَكُنَّا نَدْعُو السُّحُورَ الْفَلَاحَ ، فَأَمَّا نَحْنُ فَنَقُولُ : لَيْلَةُ السَّابِعَةِ لَيْلَةُ سَبْعٍ وَعِشْرِينَ ، وَأَنْتُمْ تَقُولُونَ : لَيْلَةُ ثَلَاثٍ وَعِشْرِينَ السَّابِعَةُ ، فَمَنْ أَصَوْبُ نَحْنُ أَوْ أَنْتُمْ.
Hazrat Nu’man (may Allah be pleased with him) was once addressing from the pulpit of Homs, saying: We spent the first third of the night in prayer with the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) on the 23rd night of Ramadan. Then, on the 25th night, we stood in prayer until half the night had passed. Then, on the 27th night, the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) made us stand in prayer for so long that we feared the time for suhoor might pass. Therefore, we say that the seventh night of the last ten nights is the 27th night, and you people say that the 23rd is the seventh night. Now you tell me, who is correct, you or us?
