حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى، قَالَ قَرَأْتُ عَلَى مَالِكٍ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الأَغَرِّ، وَعَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «يَنْزِلُ رَبُّنَا تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى كُلَّ لَيْلَةٍ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ الدُّنْيَا حِينَ يَبْقَى ثُلُثُ اللَّيْلِ الآخِرُ فَيَقُولُ: مَنْ يَدْعُونِي فَأَسْتَجِيبَ لَهُ وَمَنْ يَسْأَلُنِي فَأُعْطِيَهُ وَمَنْ يَسْتَغْفِرُنِي فَأَغْفِرَ لَهُ»

The Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) said: Our Lord, the Blessed and the Exalted, descends every night to the lowest heaven when one-third of the latter part of the night is left, and says: Who supplicates Me so that I may answer him? Who asks Me so that I may give to him? Who asks Me forgiveness so that I may forgive him?

سفیان بن عیینہ نے زہری سے ، انہوں نے عمرہ سے ، انہوں نے حضرت عائشہ ؓ سےروایت کی کہ بنت جحش سات سال تک استحاضے میں مبتلا رہیں ( آگے باقی ) دوسرے راویوں کی حدیث کی طرح ۔

Bana Muhammed übnü'l Müsenna da rivayet etti. (Dediki): Bize Süfyan b. Uyeyııe, Zühri'den, o da Amra'dan, o da Âîşe'den naklen rivayet etti. Aişe bu rivayette de ötekilerin hadisinde olduğu gibi. Cahş kızı yedi yıl süreyle istihaza kanı görüyordu, diye hadisi onların hadislerine yakın rivayet etti

Sahih Muslim 758a, Book 6, The Book of Prayer - Travellers, Hadith 201. 1 min read

What it means

The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) pointed out that Allah Almighty descends every night to the lowest heaven when the last third of the night remains and encourages His servants to supplicate Him, for He responds to those who supplicate Him, and He urges them to ask Him for whatever they want, for He gives those who ask Him, and He recommends them to seek His forgiveness for their sins, for He forgives His believing servants.

What it teaches

  • The Hadīth shows the merit of the last third of the night and the prayer, supplication, and pursuit of Allah's forgiveness during that time.
  • Upon hearing this Hadīth, one should be very careful to seize the times in which supplication is likely to be answered.
