أَخْبَرَنَا يُونُسُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الأَعْلَى، قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي يُونُسُ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، قَالَ فَإِنَّ سَالِمًا أَخْبَرَنِي عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ " مَا حَقُّ امْرِئٍ مُسْلِمٍ تَمُرُّ عَلَيْهِ ثَلاَثُ لَيَالٍ إِلاَّ وَعِنْدَهُ وَصِيَّتُهُ " . قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ مَا مَرَّتْ عَلَىَّ مُنْذُ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ذَلِكَ إِلاَّ وَعِنْدِي وَصِيَّتِي.
Yunus ibn 'Abd al-A'la reported to us: Ibn Wahb informed us: Yunus informed me, from Ibn Shihab, who said: Salim informed me, from 'Abdullah ibn 'Umar, that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: ‘It is not fitting for a Muslim to let three nights pass without having his will with him.’ 'Abdullah ibn 'Umar said: Since I heard the Messenger of Allah say this, no night has passed without my will being with me.
Translation notes
This version specifies three nights and adds Ibn 'Umar's statement that he kept his will with him thereafter.
