أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْخَلِيلِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مَرْوَانُ، - هُوَ ابْنُ مُعَاوِيَةَ - عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ، عَنْ عُبَادَةَ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ الْفَزَارِيِّ، عَنْ جُبَيْرِ بْنِ أَبِي سُلَيْمَانَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، قَالَ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُ " اللَّهُمَّ " . فَذَكَرَ الدُّعَاءَ وَقَالَ فِي آخِرِهِ " أَعُوذُ بِكَ أَنْ أُغْتَالَ مِنْ تَحْتِي " . يَعْنِي بِذَلِكَ الْخَسْفَ .
Muhammad ibn al-Khalil reported to us; he said: Marwan—namely, Ibn Muʿawiyah—narrated to us, from ʿAli ibn ʿAbd al-ʿAziz, from ʿUbadah ibn Muslim al-Fazari, from Jubayr ibn Abi Sulayman, from Ibn ʿUmar, who said: The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, used to say, ‘O Allah…’ Then he mentioned the supplication and said at its end: ‘I seek refuge in You from being suddenly struck from beneath me’—meaning, swallowed by the earth.
Translation notes
The phrase ‘from being suddenly struck from beneath me’ is explained in the source as al-khasf, the earth caving in and swallowing someone.
