Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ الأَحْوَلِ، خَالِ ابْنِ أَبِي نَجِيحٍ عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ،‏.‏ قَالَ سُفْيَانُ وَحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ،‏.‏ قَالَ وَأَظُنُّ أَنَّ ابْنَ أَبِي لَبِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ قَالَ اعْتَكَفْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم الْعَشْرَ الأَوْسَطَ، فَلَمَّا كَانَ صَبِيحَةَ عِشْرِينَ نَقَلْنَا مَتَاعَنَا فَأَتَانَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏"‏ مَنْ كَانَ اعْتَكَفَ فَلْيَرْجِعْ إِلَى مُعْتَكَفِهِ فَإِنِّي رَأَيْتُ هَذِهِ اللَّيْلَةَ، وَرَأَيْتُنِي أَسْجُدُ فِي مَاءٍ وَطِينٍ ‏"‏‏.‏ فَلَمَّا رَجَعَ إِلَى مُعْتَكَفِهِ، وَهَاجَتِ السَّمَاءُ، فَمُطِرْنَا فَوَالَّذِي بَعَثَهُ بِالْحَقِّ لَقَدْ هَاجَتِ السَّمَاءُ مِنْ آخِرِ ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ، وَكَانَ الْمَسْجِدُ عَرِيشًا، فَلَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ عَلَى أَنْفِهِ وَأَرْنَبَتِهِ أَثَرَ الْمَاءِ وَالطِّينِ‏.‏

Translation

Abd al-Rahman narrated to us: Sufyan narrated to us, from Ibn Jurayj, from Sulayman al-Ahwal, the maternal uncle of Ibn Abi Najih, from Abu Salama, from Abu Saeed. Sufyan said: Muhammad ibn Amr narrated to us, from Abu Salama, from Abu Saeed. He also said: I think Ibn Abi Labid narrated to us, from Abu Salama, from Abu Saeed, may Allah be pleased with him, who said: We observed retreat in the mosque with the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, during the middle ten days. On the morning of the twentieth, we moved our belongings. The Messenger of Allah came to us and said, “Whoever has been observing retreat should return to his place of retreat, for I saw this night, and I saw myself prostrating in water and mud.” When he returned to his place of retreat, the sky grew stormy and it rained. By Him who sent him with the truth, the sky opened with rain at the end of that day. The mosque was a simple shelter, and I saw traces of water and mud on his nose and its tip.
