حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ خَشْرَمٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا الْفَضْلُ بْنُ مُوسَى، عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ وَاقِدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنِ الْحَارِثِ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ، رضى الله عنه قَالَ قَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏ "‏ أَلاَ أُعَلِّمُكَ كَلِمَاتٍ إِذَا قُلْتَهُنَّ غَفَرَ اللَّهُ لَكَ وَإِنْ كُنْتَ مَغْفُورًا لَكَ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏"‏ قُلْ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ الْعَلِيُّ الْعَظِيمُ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ الْحَلِيمُ الْكَرِيمُ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَرْشِ الْعَظِيمِ ‏" ‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ خَشْرَمٍ وَأَخْبَرَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ وَاقِدٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، بِمِثْلِ ذَلِكَ إِلاَّ أَنَّهُ قَالَ فِي آخِرِهَا ‏"‏ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ هَذَا حَدِيثٌ غَرِيبٌ لاَ نَعْرِفُهُ إِلاَّ مِنْ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ مِنْ حَدِيثِ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ عَنِ الْحَارِثِ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ ‏.‏

Unreviewed translation. All hadiths in this collection are available in five languages. Titles and introductions may remain in Arabic.

‘Ali ibn Khashram narrated to us; al-Fadl ibn Musa informed us, from al-Husayn ibn Waqid, from Abu Ishaq, from al-Harith, from ‘Ali (may Allah be pleased with him), who said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said to me: ‘Shall I teach you some words which, if you say them, Allah will forgive you—even if you have already been forgiven?’ He said: ‘Say: “There is no god but Allah, the Most High, the Magnificent; there is no god but Allah, the Forbearing, the Generous; there is no god but Allah. Glory be to Allah, Lord of the Magnificent Throne.”’ ‘Ali ibn Khashram said: ‘And ‘Ali ibn al-Husayn ibn Waqid narrated to us, from his father, similarly, except that at the end he said: “Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds.”’ He said: ‘This is a gharib hadith. We know it only through this route, from the report of Abu Ishaq, from al-Harith, from ‘Ali.’

  • بِمِثْلِ ذَلِكَ إِلاَّ أَنَّهُ قَالَ فِي آخِرِهَا ‏"‏ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ ‏"‏ ‏.

    The Arabic supplies a second version ending with ‘Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds’ and a note that the report is known only through this route; the English witness omits these.

    Should these alternate-wording and compiler-route notes be tracked?
