Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ، قَالَ‏:‏ أَخْبَرَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنْ قَابُوسَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ‏:‏ أَقْبَلَ نَبِيُّ اللهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم مُسْرِعًا وَنَحْنُ قُعُودٌ، حَتَّى أَفْزَعَنَا سُرْعَتُهُ إِلَيْنَا، فَلَمَّا انْتَهَى إِلَيْنَا سَلَّمَ، ثُمَّ قَالَ‏:‏ قَدْ أَقْبَلْتُ إِلَيْكُمْ مُسْرِعًا، لِأُخْبِرَكُمْ بِلَيْلَةِ الْقَدْرِ، فَنَسِيتُهَا فِيمَا بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَكُمْ، فَالْتَمِسُوهَا فِي الْعَشْرِ الأوَاخِرِ‏.‏

Ibn ‘Abbas said: The Prophet of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, came toward us swiftly while we were sitting, until his speed toward us alarmed us. When he reached us, he greeted us and said: “I came quickly to you to tell you about the Night of Decree, but I forgot it between my setting out and reaching you. So seek it in the last ten nights.”
