أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ الْقَاضِي، قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ: أَخْبَرَنِي وَقَالَ الْقَاضِي: حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ دُحَيْمٍ الشَّيْبَانِيُّ، ثنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَازِمٍ، أنبأ جَعْفَرُ بْنُ عَوْنٍ، أنبأ أَبُو عُمَيْسٍ، عَنْ عَوْنِ بْنِ أَبِي جُحَيْفَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ آخَى بَيْنَ سَلْمَانَ وَبَيْنَ أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ، قَالَ: فَجَاءَهُ سَلْمَانُ يَزُورُهُ فَإِذَا أُمُّ الدَّرْدَاءِ مُتَبَذِّلَةً، فَقَالَ مَا شَأْنُكِ يَا أُمَّ الدَّرْدَاءِ قَالَتْ: إِنَّ أَخَاكَ أَبَا الدَّرْدَاءِ يَقُومُ اللَّيْلَ وَيَصُومُ النَّهَارَ وَلَيْسَ لَهُ فِي شَيْءٍ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا حَاجَةٌ، فَجَاءَ أَبُو الدَّرْدَاءِ فَرَحَّبَ بِهِ وَقَرَّبَ إِلَيْهِ طَعَامًا، فَقَالَ لَهُ سَلْمَانُ: أَطْعِمْ، قَالَ: إِنِّي صَائِمٌ، قَالَ: أَقْسَمْتُ عَلَيْكَ لَتُفْطِرَنَّهُ، قَالَ: مَا أَنَا بِآكِلٍ حَتَّى تَأْكُلَ فَأَكَلَ مَعَهُ، ثُمَّ بَاتَ عِنْدَهُ فَلَمَّا كَانَ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ أَرَادَ أَبُو الدَّرْدَاءِ أَنْ يَقُومَ فَمَنَعَهُ سَلْمَانُ، وَقَالَ لَهُ: يَا أَبَا الدَّرْدَاءِ إِنَّ لِجَسَدِكَ عَلَيْكَ حَقًّا وَلِرَبِّكَ عَلَيْكَ حَقًّا وَلِأَهْلِكَ عَلَيْكَ حَقًّا صُمْ وَأَفْطِرْ وَصَلِّ وَأْتِ أَهْلَكَ وَأَعْطِ كُلَّ ذِي حَقٍّ حَقَّهُ فَلَمَّا كَانَ فِي وَجْهِ الصُّبْحِ، قَالَ: قُمِ الْآنَ إِنْ شِئْتَ، قَالَ: فَقَامَا فَتَوَضَّآ ثُمَّ رَكَعَا ثُمَّ خَرَجَا إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ فَدَنَا أَبُو الدَّرْدَاءِ لِيُخْبِرَ رَسُولَ ⦗٤٥٨⦘ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِالَّذِي أَمَرَهُ سَلْمَانُ، فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " يَا أَبَا الدَّرْدَاءِ إِنَّ لِجَسَدِكَ عَلَيْكَ حَقًّا مِثْلَ مَا قَالَ لَكَ سَلْمَانُ " رَوَاهُ الْبُخَارِيُّ فِي الصَّحِيحِ عَنْ بُنْدَارٍ عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ عَوْنٍ.
Awn bin Abi Juhayfah narrates from his father that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) established brotherhood between Salman and Abu al-Darda (may Allah be pleased with them both). Salman (may Allah be pleased with him) came to visit him and saw Umm al-Darda (may Allah be pleased with her) in a shabby state, and said: "O Umm al-Darda, what is the matter with you?" She said: "Your brother Abu al-Darda fasts by day and stands in prayer at night, and he has no need of anything of this world." Abu al-Darda (may Allah be pleased with him) came, welcomed him and set food before him. Salman (may Allah be pleased with him) said to him: "Eat." He said: "I am fasting." He said: "I adjure you that you must break it." He said: "I will not eat until you eat." So he ate with him, and then spent the night with him. When it was the latter part of the night, Abu al-Darda (may Allah be pleased with him) wanted to stand in prayer, but Salman (may Allah be pleased with him) stopped him and said to him: "O Abu al-Darda, your body has a right over you, your Lord has a right over you, and your wife has a right over you; so fast and sometimes leave it, pray, and go to your wife, and give everyone who has a right his right." When dawn drew near, he said: "Get up now, if you wish, and pray." He said: Then they both got up, performed ablution, prayed two rak'ahs and went out to the mosque. Abu al-Darda (may Allah be pleased with him) drew near to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) to tell him what Salman (may Allah be pleased with him) had said, and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Abu al-Darda, your body has a right over you, just as Salman said."
