Hadith 19618
اُردوEn
حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ سَلَمَةَ ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَاصِمٌ ، عَن أَبِي بُرْدَةَ ، عَن أَبِي مُوسَى ، أَنّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يَحْرُسُهُ أَصْحَابُهُ ، فَقُمْتُ ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ ، فَلَمْ أَرَهُ فِي مَنَامِهِ ، فَأَخَذَنِي مَا قَدُمَ وَمَا حَدَثَ ، فَذَهَبْتُ أَنْظُرُ ، فَإِذَا أَنَا بِمُعَاذٍ قَدْ لَقِيَ الَّذِي لَقِيتُ ، فَسَمِعْنَا صَوْتًا مِثْلَ هَزِيزِ الرَّحَا ، فَوَقَفَا عَلَى مَكَانِهِمَا ، فَجَاءَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنْ قِبَلِ الصَّوْتِ ، فَقَالَ : " هَلْ تَدْرُونَ أَيْنَ كُنْتُ ؟ وَفِيمَ كُنْتُ ؟ أَتَانِي آتٍ مِنْ رَبِّي عَزَّ وَجَلَّ ، فَخَيَّرَنِي بَيْنَ أَنْ يَدْخُلَ نِصْفُ أُمَّتِي الْجَنَّةَ ، وَبَيْنَ الشَّفَاعَةِ ، فَاخْتَرْتُ الشَّفَاعَةَ " ، فَقَالَا : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، ادْعُ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ أَنْ يَجْعَلَنَا فِي شَفَاعَتِكَ ، فَقَالَ : " أَنْتُمْ وَمَنْ مَاتَ ، لَا يُشْرِكُ بِاللَّهِ شَيْئًا فِي شَفَاعَتِي " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Musa (may Allah be pleased with him) that the companions of the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to keep watch at his place. Once, I woke up at night and did not find the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in his sleeping quarters. Various fears and doubts began to arise in my mind. I went out in search of the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and met Hazrat Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him); he was in the same state as I was. We heard a sound like that of a grinding mill and stopped in our tracks. The Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was coming from the direction of that sound. When he came near, the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Do you know where I was and in what condition I was?" A messenger from my Lord came to me and gave me the choice between two things: that half of my Ummah would enter Paradise, or that I would be granted the right of intercession. So I preferred the aspect of intercession. Both of them said, "O Messenger of Allah! Pray to Allah that He includes us in your intercession." The Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "You and every person who dies in such a state that he does not associate anyone with Allah will be included in my intercession."
