Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ سَعْدَانَ الْجُهَنِيِّ، عَنْ سَعْدٍ أَبِي مُجَاهِدٍ الطَّائِيِّ، - وَكَانَ ثِقَةً - عَنْ أَبِي مُدِلَّةَ، - وَكَانَ ثِقَةً - عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ ‏ "‏ ثَلاَثَةٌ لاَ تُرَدُّ دَعْوَتُهُمُ الإِمَامُ الْعَادِلُ وَالصَّائِمُ حَتَّى يُفْطِرَ وَدَعْوَةُ الْمَظْلُومِ يَرْفَعُهَا اللَّهُ دُونَ الْغَمَامِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَتُفْتَحُ لَهَا أَبْوَابُ السَّمَاءِ وَيَقُولُ بِعِزَّتِي لأَنْصُرَنَّكِ وَلَوْ بَعْدَ حِينٍ ‏"‏ ‏.‏

Ali ibn Muhammad narrated to us; Waki‘ narrated to us, from Sa‘dan al-Juhani, from Sa‘d, Abu Mujahid al-Ta’i—who was trustworthy—from Abu Mudillah—who was trustworthy—from Abu Hurayrah, who said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: ‘Three people’s supplications are not rejected: a just leader, a fasting person until he breaks the fast, and the supplication of the wronged person. Allah raises it above the clouds, the gates of heaven are opened for it, and He says, “By My might, I will surely grant you help, even after some time.”’

Notes and open questions — unreviewed
  • The final ‘you’ is grammatically feminine in Arabic and refers to the supplication; the translation retains the direct address.
