حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، أَخْبَرَنَا عِيسَى بْنُ يُونُسَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ بْنُ أَبِي، سُلَيْمَانَ عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ صَفْوَانَ، (وَهُوَ ابْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ صَفْوَانَ)

وَكَانَتْ تَحْتَهُ الدَّرْدَاءُ قَالَ قَدِمْتُ الشَّامَ فَأَتَيْتُ أَبَا الدَّرْدَاءِ فِي مَنْزِلِهِ فَلَمْ أَجِدْهُ وَوَجَدْتُ أُمَّ الدَّرْدَاءِ فَقَالَتْ أَتُرِيدُ الْحَجَّ الْعَامَ فَقُلْتُ: نَعَمْ.

قَالَتْ فَادْعُ اللَّهَ لَنَا بِخَيْرٍ فَإِنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يَقُولُ: «دَعْوَةُ الْمَرْءِ الْمُسْلِمِ لأَخِيهِ بِظَهْرِ الْغَيْبِ مُسْتَجَابَةٌ عِنْدَ رَأْسِهِ مَلَكٌ مُوَكَّلٌ كُلَّمَا دَعَا لأَخِيهِ بِخَيْرٍ قَالَ الْمَلَكُ الْمُوَكَّلُ بِهِ آمِينَ وَلَكَ بِمِثْلٍ».

قَالَ فَخَرَجْتُ إِلَى السُّوقِ فَلَقِيتُ أَبَا الدَّرْدَاءِ فَقَالَ لِي مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ يَرْوِيهِ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ

Safwan (and he was Ibn Abdullah ibn Safwan, and he had been married to Umm Darda) reported: I visited Abu Darda’s house in Syria. I did not find him there but Umm Darda (was present at the house).

She said: Do you intend to perform Hajj during this year? I said: Yes. She said: Do supplicate Allah for blessings upon us, for the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) (may peace be upon hiin) used to say: The supplication of a Muslim for his brother at his back (in his absence) is responded so long as he makes a supplica- tion for blessings for his brother and the commissioned Angel says: Amen, and says: May it be for you too I I went to the bazar and met Abfi Dardi and he narrated like this from the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam).

কাসিম ইবনু যাকারিয়্যা (রহঃ) ..... 'আবদুল্লাহ ইবনু আমর (রাযিঃ) থেকে বর্ণিত। তিনি বলেন, রসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বলেছেনঃ তুমি প্রতি মাসে একবার করে সম্পূর্ণ কুরআন পাঠ কর।

আবদুল্লাহ (রাযিঃ) বলেন, আমি বললাম, আরো বেশী পড়ার সামর্থ রাখি। তিনি বললেন, তাহলে তুমি বিশ দিন অন্তর একবার কুরআন খতম কর। রাবী বলেন, আমি আবার আরয করলাম, আমার আরো (বেশী পাঠ করার) শক্তি আছে।

তিনি বললেন, তাহলে তুমি সাত দিন অন্তর একবার সম্পূর্ণ কুরআন পাঠ কর। তবে এর চেয়ে বেশী (তিলাওয়াত) করো না। (কারণ এর চেয়ে কম সময়ের মধ্যে কুরআন খতম করলে কুরআন নিয়ে চিন্তা-ভাবনা করা এবং এর মর্ম উপলব্ধি করার সুযোগ হয় না)।*

شیبان نے یحییٰ سے ، انہوں نے بنو زہرہ کے مولیٰ محمد بن عبدالرحمان سے ، انھوں نے ابو سلمہ سے روایت کی ۔ ( یحییٰ نے کہا : ) میرا اپنے بارے میں خیال ہے کہ میں نے خود بھی یہ حدیث ابو سلمہ سے سنی ، انھوں نے حضرت عبداللہ بن عمرو رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ سے روایت کی ، کہا : رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے مجھ سے فرمایا : " قرآن مجید کی تلاوت مہینے میں ( مکمل ) کیاکرو ۔

" میں نے عرض کی : میں ( اس سے زیادہ کی ) قوت پاتا ہوں ۔ آپ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فرمایا : " بیس راتوں میں پڑھ لیا کرو ۔ " میں نے عرض کی : میں ( اس سے زیادہ کی ) قوت پاتا ہوں ۔ آپ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فرمایا : " سات دنوں میں پڑھ لیا کرو ۔ " اور اس سے زیادہ ( قراءت ) مت کرنا ۔

Telah menceritakan kepadaku [Al Qasim bin Zakariya] telah menceritakan kepada kami [Ubaidullah bin Musa] dari [Syaiban] dari [Yahya] dari [Muhammad bin Abdurrahman] Maula Bani Zuhrah, dari [Abu Salamah] ia berkata, dan saya menyangka bahwa saya telah mendengarnya dari [Abu Salamah] dari [Abdullah bin Amru] radliallahu 'anhuma, ia berkata; Rasulullah shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam bersabda kepdaku: "Bacalah (Khatamkanlah) Al Quran sekali pada setiap bulannya."

Saya berkata, "Saya masih kuat dari itu." beliau bersabda: "Kalau begitu, pada setiap dua puluh hari sekali." Saya berkata lagi, "Saya masih kuat kurang dari itu." beliau bersabda: "Kalau begitu, bacalah (khatamkanlah) pada setiap tujuh hari sekali, dan jangan kamu menguranginya lagi

Bana Kasim b. Zekeriyyâ rivayet etti. (Dediki) Bize Ubeydullah b. Musa, Seyban'dan, o da Yahya'dan, o da Beni Zuhre'nin azatlısı Muhammed b. Abdirrahman'dan. o da Ebû Selemeden : — Muhammed: Zannederim ben bunu Ebû Seleme'den işittim, demiş; o da Abdullah b. Amr (Radiyallahû anhuma)'dan naklen rivayet etti. Abdullah şöyle demiş; Resulullah (Sallallahu Aleyhi ve Sellem) bana : — Her ay Kur'ân'ı hatmeyle, buyurdu.

— Ben kendimde (fazla) kuvvet buluyorum, dedim, — öyle İse onu yirmi günde hatmet, buyurdu. — Ben kendimde (bundan daha fazla) kuvvet buluyorum, dedim. — O halde onu her yedi günde bir oku, ama bundan fazlasına uzanma, buyurdu

Sahih Muslim 2732c, Book 48, The Book Pertaining to the Remembrance of Allah, Supplication, Repentance and Seeking Forgiveness, Hadith 121. 1 min read

What it means

The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) informed that a Muslim's supplication for his fellow Muslim in his absence is answered because it demonstrates greater sincerity. At the head of the supplicator is an appointed angel who says whenever he invokes good for his brother: Amen, and may you receive the same.

What it teaches

  • Encouraging believers to show kindness to one another, even with supplication.
  • Supplicating for others in their absence is an indication of sincere faith and true brotherhood.
  • Restricting supplication for others to their absence, because this demonstrates greater sincerity and presence of heart.
  • One of the reasons for supplications being answered is when a Muslim prays for his fellow Muslim in his absence.
  • An-Nawawi said: The merit of supplicating for a fellow Muslim in his absence—even if one prays for a group of Muslims, this merit is attained. And if one supplicates for the entire Muslim community, it is evident that this merit is also attained. Some of the righteous predecessors, when they wished to supplicate for themselves, would supplicate for their Muslim brother with the same supplication, because it is answered, and they receive the same.
  • Clarifying some of the tasks of angels—among them are those whom Allah has entrusted with this specific task.
