Hadith 22401
اُردوEn
حَدَّثَنَا حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَكْرٍ ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَيْمُونٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبَّادٍ ، عَنْ ثَوْبَانَ ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : " إِنَّ الْعَبْدَ لَيَلْتَمِسُ مَرْضَاةَ اللَّهِ وَلَا يَزَالُ بِذَلِكَ ، فَيَقُولُ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ لِجِبْرِيلَ : إِنَّ فُلَانًا عَبْدِي يَلْتَمِسُ أَنْ يُرْضِيَنِي ، أَلَا وَإِنَّ رَحْمَتِي عَلَيْهِ ، فَيَقُولُ جِبْرِيلُ : رَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ عَلَى فُلَانٍ ، وَيَقُولُهَا حَمَلَةُ الْعَرْشِ ، وَيَقُولُهَا مَنْ حَوْلَهُمْ , حَتَّى يَقُولَهَا أَهْلُ السَّمَوَاتِ السَّبْعِ ، ثُمَّ تَهْبِطُ لَهُ إِلَى الْأَرْضِ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Thawban (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: When a person seeks the pleasure of Allah Almighty and remains persistent in it, Allah Almighty says to Hazrat Jibreel (peace be upon him): "My such-and-such servant is seeking My pleasure; be aware that My mercy is directed towards him." Hazrat Jibreel (peace be upon him) says, "May Allah's mercy be upon such-and-such person." The bearers of the Throne also say the same, and the angels around them also begin to say the same, until the inhabitants of the seven heavens begin to say the same. Then this matter is sent down to the earth.
