(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا
عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ نُمَيْرٍ ، عَنْ
مُجَالِدٍ ، عَنْ
عَامِرٍ ، عَنْ
جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ
عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ ، يَقُولُ
لِطَلْحَةَ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ : مَا لِي أَرَاكَ قَدْ شَعِثْتَ وَاغْبَرَرْتَ مُنْذُ تُوُفِّيَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ؟ لَعَلَّكَ سَاءَكَ يَا طَلْحَةُ إِمَارَةُ ابْنِ عَمِّكَ ؟ قَالَ : مَعَاذَ اللَّهِ ، إِنِّي لَأَحْذَرُكُمْ أَنْ لَا أَفْعَلَ ذَلِكَ ، إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، يَقُولُ : " إِنِّي لَأَعْلَمُ كَلِمَةً لَا يَقُولُهَا أَحَدٌ عِنْدَ حَضْرَةِ الْمَوْتِ إِلَّا وَجَدَ رُوحَهُ لَهَا رَوْحًا حِينَ تَخْرُجُ مِنْ جَسَدِهِ ، وَكَانَتْ لَهُ نُورًا يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ " ، فَلَمْ أَسْأَلْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْهَا ، وَلَمْ يُخْبِرْنِي بِهَا ، فَذَلِكَ الَّذِي دَخَلَنِي ، قَالَ عُمَرُ : فَأَنَا أَعْلَمُهَا ، قَالَ : فَلِلَّهِ الْحَمْدُ ، قَالَ : فَمَا هِيَ ؟ قَالَ : هِيَ الْكَلِمَةُ الَّتِي قَالَهَا لِعَمِّهِ : لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ ، قَالَ طَلْحَةُ : صَدَقْتَ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that once I heard Sayyiduna Umar Farooq (may Allah be pleased with him) saying to Sayyiduna Talha (may Allah be pleased with him): "What is the matter, since the blessed passing of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), you have become disheveled and covered in dust? Did you not like the caliphate of your cousin, that is, me?" He replied: "Allah's refuge! I should never do such a thing. The real matter is that I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) saying: 'I know a word that if a person says it at the time of death, it will make the soul's departure easy for him and on the Day of Resurrection it will be a source of light for him.' I regret that I could not ask the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) about this word, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) himself did not tell me either. That is why I am worried." Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "I know that word." Sayyiduna Abu Talha (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "Alhamdulillah," and asked: "What is that word?" He replied: "The same word that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) presented before his uncle, that is, 'La ilaha illallah' (There is no god but Allah)." Sayyiduna Talha (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "You have spoken the truth."
