حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا بَكْرٌ، - وَهُوَ ابْنُ مُضَرَ - عَنِ ابْنِ الْهَادِ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ، بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ، - رضى الله عنه - قَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يُجَاوِرُ فِي الْعَشْرِ الَّتِي فِي وَسَطِ الشَّهْرِ فَإِذَا كَانَ مِنْ حِينِ تَمْضِي عِشْرُونَ لَيْلَةً وَيَسْتَقْبِلُ إِحْدَى وَعِشْرِينَ يَرْجِعُ إِلَى مَسْكَنِهِ وَرَجَعَ مَنْ كَانَ يُجَاوِرُ مَعَهُ ثُمَّ إِنَّهُ أَقَامَ فِي شَهْرٍ جَاوَرَ فِيهِ تِلْكَ اللَّيْلَةَ الَّتِي كَانَ يَرْجِعُ فِيهَا فَخَطَبَ النَّاسَ فَأَمَرَهُمْ بِمَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ ‏ "‏ إِنِّي كُنْتُ أُجَاوِرُ هَذِهِ الْعَشْرَ ثُمَّ بَدَا لِي أَنْ أُجَاوِرَ هَذِهِ الْعَشْرَ الأَوَاخِرَ فَمَنْ كَانَ اعْتَكَفَ مَعِي فَلْيَبِتْ فِي مُعْتَكَفِهِ وَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ هَذِهِ اللَّيْلَةَ فَأُنْسِيتُهَا فَالْتَمِسُوهَا فِي الْعَشْرِ الأَوَاخِرِ فِي كُلِّ وِتْرٍ وَقَدْ رَأَيْتُنِي أَسْجُدُ فِي مَاءٍ وَطِينٍ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيُّ مُطِرْنَا لَيْلَةَ إِحْدَى وَعِشْرِينَ فَوَكَفَ الْمَسْجِدُ فِي مُصَلَّى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَنَظَرْتُ إِلَيْهِ وَقَدِ انْصَرَفَ مِنْ صَلاَةِ الصُّبْحِ وَوَجْهُهُ مُبْتَلٌّ طِينًا وَمَاءً ‏.‏

Rapporté par Abu Sa’id al-Khudri رضي الله عنه : Le Messager d’Allah ﷺ a passé les dix nuits du milieu du mois de Ramadan en adoration (en i’tikaf). Quand vingt nuits furent passées et que la vingt-et-unième nuit arriva, il retourna chez lui, ainsi que ceux qui étaient avec lui. Il a passé un mois en adoration. Puis, la nuit où il est rentré chez lui, il s’est adressé aux gens et leur a ordonné ce qu’Allah voulait, puis il a dit : « J’avais l’habitude de me consacrer (faire i’tikaf) pendant ces dix nuits. Ensuite, j’ai commencé à me consacrer pendant les dix dernières nuits. Celui qui veut faire i’tikaf avec moi doit passer la nuit à sa place d’i’tikaf. J’ai vu cette nuit (Laylat al-Qadr), mais j’ai oublié (la date exacte) ; cherchez-la donc pendant les dix dernières nuits, lors des nuits impaires. J’ai vu en rêve que je me prosternai dans l’eau et la boue. » Abu Sa’id al-Khudri a dit : Il a plu la vingt-et-unième nuit et l’eau a coulé du toit de la mosquée à l’endroit où le Messager d’Allah ﷺ priait. Je l’ai regardé, et lorsqu’il a terminé la prière de l’aube, son visage était mouillé de boue et d’eau
