حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ الضُّبَعِيُّ، عَنْ كَهْمَسِ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ بُرَيْدَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَرَأَيْتَ إِنْ عَلِمْتُ أَىُّ لَيْلَةٍ لَيْلَةُ الْقَدْرِ مَا أَقُولُ فِيهَا قَالَ ‏"‏ قُولِي اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّكَ عَفُوٌّ كَرِيمٌ تُحِبُّ الْعَفْوَ فَاعْفُ عَنِّي ‏" ‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ ‏.‏

Qutaybah ibn Sa‘id narrated to us; Ja‘far ibn Sulayman al-Duba‘i narrated to us, from Kahmas ibn al-Hasan, from ‘Abd Allah ibn Buraydah, from ‘A’ishah, who said: I asked, ‘Messenger of Allah, if I know which night is the Night of Decree, what should I say during it?’ He replied: ‘Say: “O Allah, You are Pardoning and Generous; You love to pardon, so pardon me.”’ He said: ‘This is a hasan sahih hadith.’
