اخبرنا الحسن بن سفيان ، حدثنا محمد بن بشار ، حدثنا ابو عاصم ، حدثني ابن جريج ، اخبرني موسى بن عقبة ، عن نافع ، عن ابن عمر ، ان النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم، قال: " خرج ثلاثة يتماشون، فاصابهم مطر، فدخلوا كهف جبل، فانحط عليهم حجر فسد عليهم الطريق، فقالوا: ادعوا الله باوثق اعمالكم. فقال واحد منهم: اللهم إن كنت تعلم انه كان لي والدان شيخان كبيران، واني رحت يوما، فحلبت لهما، فاتيتهما وهما نائمان، فكرهت ان اوقظهما، وكرهت ان اسقي ولدي، وصبيتي عند رجلي يتضاغون، فقمت قائما حتى انفجر الصبح فسقيتهما، اللهم إن كنت تعلم اني فعلت ذلك رجاء رحمتك، وخشية عذابك، فافرج عنا وارنا السماء. قال: فانفرج فرجة، فراوا السماء. وقال الآخر: اللهم إن كنت تعلم انه كانت لي بنت عم، وكنت احبها كاشد ما يحب الرجال النساء، واني سالتها نفسها، فقالت: لا، حتى تاتيني بمائة دينار، فسعيت فيها حتى جمعتها، فاتيتها، فلما قعدت بين رجليها، قالت: يا عبد الله، اتق الله، ولا تفض الخاتم إلا بحقه، فتركتها، اللهم إن كنت تعلم اني فعلت ذلك رجاء رحمتك، وخشية عذابك، فافرج عنا وارنا السماء. قال فزالت قطعة من الحجر وراوا السماء. وقال الآخر: اللهم إني استعملت اجيرا بفرق من الارز، فلما كان الليل اعطيته فلم ياخذ اجره وتسخطه، فاخذت الفرق فزرعته حتى صار من ذلك بقرا وغنما، فاتاني بعد ذلك، قال: يا عبد الله، اتق الله ولا تظلمني اجري، فقلت: خذ هذه البقر وراعيها، فقال: اتق الله ولا تهزا بي، قلت: ما اهزا بك، فهو لك. ولو شئت لم اعطه إلا الفرق، اللهم إن كنت تعلم اني فعلت ذلك رجاء رحمتك، وخشية عذابك، فافرج عنا. فزال الحجر وخرجوا" .
Sayyiduna Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates this statement of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him):“Three men were walking when rain overtook them, so they entered a cave in a mountain. A rock fell upon them and blocked the way. So they said: ‘Call upon Allah by means of your most beloved deeds.’ One of them said: O Allah! You know that my parents were old and advanced in age. One day I came home in the evening and milked for both of them. When I came to them, they were both asleep. I did not like to wake them, nor did I like to give milk to my children before them. My children were crying at my feet, but I remained standing until morning came and they woke up, then I gave them to drink. O Allah! If You know that I did this hoping for Your mercy and fearing Your punishment, then grant us relief and show us the sky. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: A little relief appeared and they could see the sky.
The second person said: O Allah! You know that I had a cousin whom I loved intensely, as men love women. Once I sought her nearness, but she said: ‘No, not until you give me one hundred dinars.’ I strove for it and gathered the amount, then came to her. When I sat between her legs, she said: ‘O servant of Allah, fear Allah and do not break the seal unlawfully.’ So I left her. O Allah! If You know that I did this hoping for Your mercy and fearing Your punishment, then grant us relief and show us the sky. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: A piece of the rock moved and they could see the sky.
The third person said: O Allah! I hired a man for a specific measure of rice. When night came, I paid him his wages, but he did not take it and became angry with me. I took the measure of rice and started farming with it until it turned into cows and goats. After some time, that man came to me and said: ‘O servant of Allah! Fear Allah and do not wrong me in my wages.’ So I said to him: ‘Take these cows and their shepherd.’ He said: ‘Fear Allah and do not mock me.’ I said: ‘I am not mocking you. These are yours. If I wished, I could have given you only a measure of rice.’ O Allah! If You know that I did this hoping for Your mercy and fearing Your punishment, then grant us relief. So the rock moved away from there and they came out.”
