The Book of Fasting
Sahih Muslim 2772
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَامِرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ، عَنْ يَحْيَى، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، قَالَ تَذَاكَرْنَا لَيْلَةَ الْقَدْرِ فَأَتَيْتُ أَبَا سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيَّ - رضى الله عنه - وَكَانَ لِي صَدِيقًا فَقُلْتُ أَلاَ تَخْرُجُ بِنَا إِلَى النَّخْلِ فَخَرَجَ وَعَلَيْهِ خَمِيصَةٌ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ سَمِعْتَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَذْكُرُ لَيْلَةَ الْقَدْرِ فَقَالَ نَعَمْ اعْتَكَفْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم الْعَشْرَ الْوُسْطَى مِنْ رَمَضَانَ فَخَرَجْنَا صَبِيحَةَ عِشْرِينَ فَخَطَبَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَالَ " إِنِّي أُرِيتُ لَيْلَةَ الْقَدْرِ وَإِنِّي نَسِيتُهَا - أَوْ أُنْسِيتُهَا - فَالْتَمِسُوهَا فِي الْعَشْرِ الأَوَاخِرِ مِنْ كُلِّ وِتْرٍ وَإِنِّي أُرِيتُ أَنِّي أَسْجُدُ فِي مَاءٍ وَطِينٍ فَمَنْ كَانَ اعْتَكَفَ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَلْيَرْجِعْ " . قَالَ فَرَجَعْنَا وَمَا نَرَى فِي السَّمَاءِ قَزَعَةً قَالَ وَجَاءَتْ سَحَابَةٌ فَمُطِرْنَا حَتَّى سَالَ سَقْفُ الْمَسْجِدِ وَكَانَ مِنْ جَرِيدِ النَّخْلِ وَأُقِيمَتِ الصَّلاَةُ فَرَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَسْجُدُ فِي الْمَاءِ وَالطِّينِ قَالَ حَتَّى رَأَيْتُ أَثَرَ الطِّينِ فِي جَبْهَتِهِ .

Rapporté par Abu Salama : Nous avons discuté entre nous de la Nuit du Destin (Lailat-ul-Qadr). Je suis allé voir Abu Sa'id al-Khudri رضي الله عنه, qui était un ami à moi, et je lui ai dit : « Ne veux-tu pas venir avec nous au jardin de palmiers-dattiers ? » Il est sorti, portant un manteau sur lui. Je lui ai demandé : « As-tu entendu le Messager d’Allah ﷺ parler de la Nuit du Destin ? » Il a répondu : « Oui », puis il a ajouté : « Nous faisions la retraite spirituelle (i’tikaf) avec le Messager d’Allah ﷺ pendant les dix jours du milieu du Ramadan. Nous sommes sortis le matin du vingtième jour et le Messager d’Allah ﷺ nous a adressé la parole en disant : “On m’a montré la Nuit du Destin, mais je l’ai oubliée (la nuit exacte), ou on m’a fait l’oublier. Cherchez-la donc parmi les dix dernières nuits impaires. Et on m’a montré que je me prosternai dans l’eau et la boue. Que celui qui veut faire la retraite spirituelle avec le Messager d’Allah ﷺ retourne (à la mosquée).” » Abu Sa'id al-Khudri رضي الله عنه a dit : « Nous sommes donc revenus et il n’y avait aucun nuage dans le ciel. Puis des nuages se sont rassemblés et il y a eu une forte pluie, au point que le toit de la mosquée, fait de branches de palmiers, s’est mis à goutter. Ensuite, il y a eu la prière et j’ai vu le Messager d’Allah ﷺ se prosterner dans l’eau et la boue, jusqu’à ce que je voie les traces de boue sur son front. »
