أَخْبَرَنَا نُعَيْمُ بْنُ حَمَّادٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا بَقِيَّةُ ، عَنْ بَحِيرٍ ، عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ مَعْدَانَ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَمْرٍو السُّلَمِيُّ ، عَنْ عُتْبَةَ بْنِ عَبْدٍ السُّلَمِيِّ ، أَنَّهُ حَدَّثَهُمْ وَكَانَ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ لَهُ رَجُلٌ : كَيْفَ كَانَ أَوَّلُ شَأْنِكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ؟، قَالَ :" كَانَتْ حَاضِنَتِي مِنْ بَنِي سَعْدِ بْنِ بَكْرٍ، فَانْطَلَقْتُ أَنَا، وَابْنٌ لَهَا فِي بَهْمٍ لَنَا وَلَمْ نَأْخُذْ مَعَنَا زَادًا، فَقُلْتُ : يَا أَخِي، اذْهَبْ فَأْتِنَا بِزَادٍ مِنْ عِنْدِ أُمِّنَا، فَانْطَلَقَ أَخِي وَمَكَثْتُ عِنْدَ الْبَهْمِ، فَأَقْبَلَ طَائِرَانِ أَبْيَضَانِ كَأَنَّهُمَا نَسْرَانِ، فَقَالَ أَحَدُهُمَا لِصَاحِبِهِ : أَهُوَ هُوَ؟، قَالَ الْآخَرُ : نَعَمْ، فَأَقْبَلَا يَبْتَدِرَانِي فَأَخَذَانِي فَبَطَحَانِي لِلْقَفَا فَشَقَّا بَطْنِي ثُمَّ اسْتَخْرَجَا قَلْبِي فَشَقَّاهُ، فَأَخْرَجَا مِنْهُ عَلَقَتَيْنِ سَوْدَاوَيْنِ، فَقَالَ أَحَدُهُمَا لِصَاحِبِهِ : ائْتِنِي بِمَاءِ ثَلْجٍ، فَغَسَلَ بِهِ جَوْفِي، ثُمَّ قَالَ : ائْتِنِي بِمَاءِ بَرَدٍ، فَغَسَلَ بِهِ قَلْبِي، ثُمَّ قَالَ : ائْتِنِي بِالسَّكِينَةِ فَذَرَّهُ فِي قَلْبِي، ثُمَّ قَالَ أَحَدُهُمَا لِصَاحِبِهِ : حُصْهُ، فَحَاصَهُ وَخَتَمَ عَلَيْهِ بِخَاتَمِ النُّبُوَّةِ، ثُمَّ قَالَ أَحَدُهُمَا لِصَاحِبِهِ : اجْعَلْهُ فِي كِفَّةٍ وَاجْعَلْ أَلْفًا مِنْ أُمَّتِهِ فِي كِفَّةٍ "، قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " فَإِذَا أَنَا أَنْظُرُ إِلَى الْأَلْفِ فَوْقِي أُشْفِقُ أَنْ يَخِرَّ عَلَيَّ بَعْضُهُمْ، فَقَالَ : لَوْ أَنَّ أُمَّتَهُ وُزِنَتْ بِهِ لَمَالَ بِهِمْ، ثُمَّ انْطَلَقَا وَتَرَكَانِي "، قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " وَفَرِقْتُ فَرَقًا شَدِيدًا، ثُمَّ انْطَلَقْتُ إِلَى أُمِّي فَأَخْبَرْتُهَا بِالَّذِي لَقِيتُ، فَأَشْفَقَتْ أَنْ يَكُونَ قَدْ الْتَبَسَ بِي، فَقَالَتْ : أُعِيذُكَ بِاللَّهِ، فَرَحَلَتْ بَعِيرًا لَهَا، فَجَعَلَتْنِي عَلَى الرَّحْلِ وَرَكِبَتْ خَلْفِي حَتَّى بُلَغْنَا إِلَى أُمِّي، فَقَالَتْ : أَدَّيْتُ أَمَانَتِي وَذِمَّتِي، وَحَدَّثَتْهَا بِالَّذِي لَقِيتُ، فَلَمْ يَرُعْهَا ذَلِكَ، وَقَالَتْ : إِنِّي رَأَيْتُ حِينَ خَرَجَ مِنِّي شَيْئًا، يَعْنِي : نُورًا أَضَاءَتْ مِنْهُ قُصُورُ الشَّامِ "

Nu`aym bin Hammad told us, Baqiya told us, on the authority of Buhair, on the authority of Khalid bin Maadan, Abd al-Rahman bin Amr al-Sulami told us, on the authority of Utbah bin Abdul-Salami, that he told them and was one of the companions of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, that the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, A man said to him: How was your early affairs, O Messenger of God? He said: “My caregiver was from the Banu Sa’d bin Bakr, so I and a son of hers set off for They were ours, and we had not taken any provisions with us. So I said: My brother, go and bring us some provisions from our mother. So my brother departed and I stayed with them. Then two white birds approached as if they were eagles, and one of them said to its companion: Is it him? The other said: Yes, so they approached, hastening to me. So he took me and flattened me by the back of my stomach, then they took out my heart and tore it open, and took out two black clots from it. One of them said: To its companion: Bring me ice water, and wash my body with it. Then he said: Bring me cold water, so wash my heart with it, then he said: Bring me tranquility, so wash it away. In my heart, then one of them said to his companion: Grab it, so he measured it and sealed it with the seal of prophethood. Then one of them said to his companion: Put it in a bowl. And put a thousand of his nation on a scale.” The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: “When I look at a thousand above me, I fear that it will fall on me.” one of them, and he said: If his nation had been weighed against him, he would have disposed of them. Then they departed and left me. The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: “And I dispersed.” There was a great difference, then I went to my mother and told her what I had met. She was afraid that I had been confused, so she said: I seek refuge in God, so she left. She put me on the mount and rode behind me until we reached my mother, and she said: I fulfilled my trust and my pledge, and I told her what I had met. This did not frighten her, and she said: When something came out of me, I saw a light that illuminated the palaces of the Levant.
