أَخْبَرَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ ، عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مَيْمُونٍ التَّمِيمِيِّ ، عَنْ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ النَّهْدِيِّ ، أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ خَرَجَ إِلَى الْبَطْحَاءِ ، وَمَعَهُ ابْنُ مَسْعُودٍ، فَأَقْعَدَهُ وَخَطَّ عَلَيْهِ خَطًّا، ثُمَّ قَالَ :" لَا تَبْرَحَنَّ فَإِنَّهُ سَيَنْتَهِي إِلَيْكَ رِجَالٌ فَلَا تُكَلِّمْهُمْ، فَإِنَّهُمْ لَنْ يُكَلِّمُوكَ "، فَمَضَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَيْثُ أَرَادَ، ثُمَّ جَعَلُوا يَنْتَهُونَ إِلَى الْخَطِّ لَا يُجَاوِزُونَهُ، ثُمَّ يَصْدُرُونَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَتَّى إِذَا كَانَ مِنْ آخِرِ اللَّيْلِ، جَاءَ إِلَيَّ فَتَوَسَّدَ فَخِذِي، وَكَانَ إِذَا نَامَ، نَفَخَ فِي النَّوْمِ، نَفْخًا فَبَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مُتَوَسِّدٌ فَخِذِي، رَاقِدٌ، إِذْ أَتَانِي رِجَالٌ كَأَنَّهُمْ الْجِمَالُ عَلَيْهِمْ ثِيَابٌ بِيضٌ اللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ مَا بِهِمْ مِنْ الْجَمَالِ حَتَّى قَعَدَ طَائِفَةٌ مِنْهُمْ عِنْدَ رَأْسِهِ، وَطَائِفَةٌ مِنْهُمْ عِنْدَ رِجْلَيْهِ، فَقَالُوا بَيْنَهُمْ : مَا رَأَيْنَا عَبْدًا أُوتِيَ مِثْلَ مَا أُوتِيَ هَذَا النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : إِنَّ عَيْنَيْهِ لَتَنَامَانِ، وَإِنَّ قَلْبَهُ لَيَقْظَانُ، اضْرِبُوا لَهُ مَثَلًا : سَيِّدٌ بَنَى قَصْرًا ثُمَّ جَعَلَ مَأْدُبَةً فَدَعَا النَّاسَ إِلَى طَعَامِهِ وَشَرَابِهِ، ثُمَّ ارْتَفَعُوا، وَاسْتَيْقَظَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عِنْدَ ذَلِكَ، فَقَالَ : " أَتَدْرِي مَنْ هَؤُلَاءِ؟ "، قُلْتُ : اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ، قَالَ : " هُمْ الْمَلَائِكَةُ "، قَالَ : " وَهَلْ تَدْرِي مَا الْمَثَلُ الَّذِي ضَرَبُوهُ؟ "، قُلْتُ : اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ، قَالَ : " الرَّحْمَنُ بَنَى الْجَنَّةَ فَدَعَا إِلَيْهَا عِبَادَهُ، فَمَنْ أَجَابَهُ، دَخَلَ جَنَّتَهُ، وَمَنْ لَمْ يُجِبْهُ، عَاقَبَهُ وَعَذَّبَهُ "
Al-Hasan bin Ali told us, Abu Usama told us, on the authority of Jafar bin Maymun Al-Tamimi, on the authority of Abu Uthman Al-Nahdi, that the Messenger of God, may God’s prayers and peace He, peace and blessings be upon him, went out to Al-Batha’, and with him was Ibn Masoud. He made him sit down and drew a line on it, then said: “Do not leave, for it will end.” “You have men, so do not speak to them, for they will not speak to you.” So the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, went wherever he wanted, then they started to reach the line. They would not go beyond it, then they would go to the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, until, at the end of the night, he came to me and pressed my thigh, and it was like He slept, he blew in his sleep, he blew, and between us the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, was lying on my thighs, when men came to me as if they were camels on them. White clothes, God knows best, what beauty they had, until a group of them sat at his head, and a group of them at his feet, and they said to each other: We have never seen a servant given anything like what this Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, was given. Indeed, his eyes sleep and his heart is awake. Strike for him. For example: A master built a palace, then he held a banquet and invited people to eat and drink, then they rose up, and the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, woke up. At that, he said: “Do you know who these people are? I said: God and His Messenger know best. He said: They are the angels. He said: Do you know what example they used? I said: God and His Messenger know best. He said: The Most Gracious built Paradise and called His servants to it, so whoever answered him will enter his Paradise, and whoever did not answer him, He punished him and tortured him.”
