Chapter 36: Remembrance of Allah (SWT) cures hearts

1. عَنْ مَكْحُولٍ رضي الله عنه قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صلي الله عليه وآله وسلم: إنَّ ذِكْرَ اللهِ شِفَاءٌ, وَإنَّ ذِكْرَ النَّاسِ دَاءٌ.
Makhūl narrates that the Messenger of Allah (صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم) said, “Indeed, remembrance of Allah (SWT) is a cure and remembrance of people is an illness.”
2. حَفْصَةُ بِنْتُ عُمَرَ رضي الله عنهما قَالَتْ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صلي الله عليه وآله وسلم: يَا حَفْصَةَ، إيَّاكَ وَكَثْرَةَ الْكَلاَمِ، فَإنَّ كَثْرَةَ الْكَلاَمِ بِغَيْرِ ذِكْرِ اللهِ تَمِيْتُ الْقَلْبِ. وَعَلَيْكِ بِكَثْرَةِ ذِكْرِ اللهِ فَإنَّهُ يُحْيِى الْقَلْبَ.
Umm-ul-Muminīn Hafsah bint Umar (رضی اللہ عنھما) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم) blessed her with his holy advice, “O Hafsah, eschew talking too much because too much talking except remembrance of Allah kills the heart. And remember Allah (SWT) greatly and persistently because it gives life to the heart.”
3. عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ رضي الله عنهما قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلي الله عليه وآله وسلم: لاَ تُكْثِرُوا الْكَلَامَ بِغَيْرِ ذِكْرِ اللَّهِ، فَإِنَّ كَثْرَةَ الْكَلَامِ بِغَيْرِ ذِكْرِ اللَّهِ قَسْوَةٌ لِلْقَلْبِ، وَإِنَّ أَبْعَدَ النَّاسِ مِنْ اللَّهِ الْقَلْبُ الْقَاسِي.
Abdullah ibn Umar (رضی اللہ عنھما) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم) said, “Do not talk much without remembering Allah because excessive talk without Allah’s remembrance hardens hearts. And of men the farthest from Allah is the callous-hearted.”
4. عَنْ أُمِّ حَبِيبَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ رضي الله عنها عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلي الله عليه وآله وسلم قَالَ: كُلُّ كَلَامِ ابْنِ آدَمَ عَلَيْهِ لاَ لَهُ إِلاَّ أَمْرٌ بِمَعْرُوفٍ أَوْ نَهْيٌ عَنْ مُنْكَرٍ أَوْ ذِكْرُ اللَّهِ.
Umm-ul-Muminīn Umm Habibah (ل) narrates from the Holy Prophet (صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم) , “Except for commanding the right and forbidding the wrong and remembering Allah, no utterance of Adam’s son goes to his favour.”
5. عَنْ أَنَسٍ رضي الله عنه قَالَ: ذِكْرُ اللهِ شِفَاءُ الْقُلُوبِ.
Anas (رضی اللہ عنہ) states, “Remembrance of Allah (SWT) is a cure for hearts.”

Chapter 37: Remembrance of Allah (SWT) is better than freeing slaves

7. عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ رضي الله عنه قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلي الله عليه وآله وسلم: لَأَنْ أَقْعُدَ مَعَ قَوْمٍ يَذْكُرُونَ اللَّهَ تَعَالَى مِنْ صَلَاةِ الْغَدَاةِ حَتَّى تَطْلُعَ الشَّمْسُ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ أَنْ أَعْتِقَ أَرْبَعَةً مِنْ وَلَدِ إِسْمَعِيلَ، وَلَأَنْ أَقْعُدَ مَعَ قَوْمٍ يَذْكُرُونَ اللَّهَ مِنْ صَلَاةِ الْعَصْرِ إِلَى أَنْ تَغْرُبَ الشَّمْسُ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ أَنْ أَعْتِقَ أَرْبَعَةً.
Anas ibn Malik (رضی اللہ عنہ) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم) said, “Sitting with rememberers of Allah (SWT) after the fajr (morning) prayer till sunrise is more pleasing to me than setting free four slaves of the descendants of Ismail, and sitting with rememberers of Allah (SWT) after the asr (afternoon) prayer till sunset is more pleasing to me than setting free four slaves.”
8. عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ رضي الله عنه قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صلي الله عليه وآله وسلم: لَأَنْ أَجْلِسَ مَعَ قَوْمٍ يَذْكُرُوْنَ اللهَ بَعْدَ صَلاَةِ الصُّبْحِ إِلَى أَنْ تَطْلُعَ الشَّمْسَ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِمَّا طَلَعَتْ عَلَيْهِ الشَّمْسُ. وَلَأَنْ أَجْلِسَ مَعَ قَوْمٍ يَذْكُرُونَ اللهَ بَعْدَ الْعَصْرِ إِلَى أَنْ تَغِيْبَ الشَّمْسَ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ أَنْ أَعْتِقَ ثَمَانِيَةً مِنْ وَلَدِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ دِيَةَ كُلِّ رَجُلٍ مِنْهُمُ اثْنَا عَشَرَ أَلْفًا.
Anas ibn Malik (رضی اللہ عنہ) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم) said, “Sitting with rememberers of Allah (SWT) from the fajr (morning) prayer till sunrise is more beloved to me than anything else where the sun rises. Sitting with rememberers of Allah (SWT) from the asr (afternoon) prayer till sunset is more beloved to me than freeing eight people of the Children of Ismail, costing twelve thousand each.”
9. عَنْ سَالِمٍ قَالَ: قِيلَ لِأَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ رضی الله عنه: إِنَّ أَبَا سَعْدِ بْنِ مُنَبَّهٍ جَعَلَ فِيْ مَالِهِ مِائَةَ مُحَرَّرَةٍ. فَقَالَ: إِنَّ مِائَةَ مُحَرَّرَةٍ فِيْ مَالِ رَجُلٍ لَكَثِيْرٌ. أَلاَ أُخْبِرُكُمْ بِأَفْضَلَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ؟ إِيْمَانٌ مَلْزُومٌ بِاللَّيْلِ وَالنَّهَارِ وَلاَ يَزَالُ لِسَانُكَ رَطْبًا مِنْ ذِكْرِ اللهِ.
Salim narrates that Abu Darda (رضی اللہ عنہ) was told, “Abu Sa‘d ibn Munabbih has freed one hundred slaves out of his own wealth.” Abu Darda said, “Surely setting free a hundred slaves spending one’s property is a great thing, but shall I not tell you of something which is superior to that? That is steadfastness in your faith day and night and full time engagement of tongue in remembrance of Allah.”

Chapter 38: Remembrance of Allah delivers from the torment of Hell-Fire

10. عَنْ أَنَسٍ رضي الله عنه عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلي الله عليه وآله وسلم قَالَ: يَقُولُ اللهُ: أَخْرِجُوْا مِنَ النَّارِ مَنْ ذَكَرَنِي يَوْمًا أَوْ خَافَنِي فِي مَقَامٍ.
Anas ibn Mālik (رضی اللہ عنہ) narrates from the Holy Prophet (صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم) , “Allah (SWT) will say, ‘Pull him out of Hell who remembered Me some day or feared Me at some point.’”
11. عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ رضي الله عنه أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلي الله عليه وآله وسلم قَالَ: مَنْ ذَكَرَ اللهَ فَفَاضَتْ عَيْنَاهُ مِنْ خَشْيَةِ اللهِ حَتَّى يُصِيْبَ الْأَرْضَ مِنْ دَمُوعِهِ، لَمْ يُعَذِّبْهُ اللهُ تَعَالَى يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ.
Anas ibn Mālik (رضی اللہ عنہ) narrates that the Holy Prophet (صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم) said, “Whoever remembers Allah (SWT) and his eyes well with tears for fear of Allah (SWT), and the tears fall and wet the ground, Allah will not torment him at all on the Day of Resurrection.”
12. عَنْ أُبَيِّ بْنِ كَعْبٍ رضي الله عنه قَالَ: كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ رضي الله عنه إِذَا ذَهَبَ ثُلُثَا اللَّيْلِ قَامَ، فَقَالَ: يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ! اذْكُرُوا اللَّهَ، اذْكُرُوا اللَّهَ. جَاءَتِ الرَّاجِفَةُ تَتْبَعُهَا الرَّادِفَةُ. جَاءَ الْمَوْتُ بِمَا فِيهِ، جَاءَ الْمَوْتُ بِمَا فِيهِ.
Ubayy ibn Ka‘b narrates that when two-third night had passed, the Messenger of Allah (صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم) stood up and said, “O people, remember Allah (SWT), remember Allah (SWT). The Jolting (Hour) has come and the one that follows is also approaching; the death has come with its agony; the death has come with its agony.”
13. عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو رضي الله عنهما يَقُولُ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلي الله عليه وآله وسلم: يُصَاحُ بِرَجُلٍ مِنْ أُمَّتِي يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ عَلَى رُءُوسِ الْخَلَائِقِ فَيُنْشَرُ لَهُ تِسْعَةٌ وَتِسْعُونَ سِجِلًّا كُلُّ سِجِلٍّ مَدَّ الْبَصَرِ. ثُمَّ يَقُولُ اللَّهُ عزوجل: هَلْ تُنْكِرُ مِنْ هَذَا شَيْئًا؟ فَيَقُولُ: لَا، يَا رَبِّ. فَيَقُولُ: أَظَلَمَتْكَ كَتَبَتِي الْحَافِظُونَ؟ ثُمَّ يَقُولُ: أَلَكَ عَنْ ذَلِكَ حَسَنَةٌ؟ فَيُهَابُ الرَّجُلُ، فَيَقُولُ: لَا. فَيَقُولُ: بَلَى، إِنَّ لَكَ عِنْدَنَا حَسَنَاتٍ وَإِنَّهُ لَا ظُلْمَ عَلَيْكَ الْيَوْمَ. فَتُخْرَجُ لَهُ بِطَاقَةٌ فِيهَا ’’أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا عَبْدُهُ وَرَسُولُهُ.‘‘ قَالَ: فَيَقُولُ: يَا رَبِّ مَا هَذِهِ الْبِطَاقَةُ مَعَ هَذِهِ السِّجِلَّاتِ؟ فَيَقُولُ: إِنَّكَ لَا تُظْلَمُ فَتُوضَعُ السِّجِلَّاتُ فِي كِفَّةٍ، وَالْبِطَاقَةُ فِي كِفَّةٍ، فَطَاشَتْ السِّجِلَّاتُ وَثَقُلَتِ الْبِطَاقَةُ.
Abdullah ibn Amr (رضی اللہ عنھما) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم) said, “On the Day of Resurrection a man from my ummah (community) will be called in front of people, with ninety-nine registers spread out in front of him. The length of each register will be as far as the eye can see. Allah (SWT) will then say, ‘Can you deny anything that is inside them?’ The man will reply, ‘O my Lord, no.’ Then Allah (SWT) will say, ‘Did my angels who record deeds wrong you any way?’ He will then say, ‘Do you have any pious deed in addition to this?’ The man will be terrified and say, ‘No.’ Allah (SWT) will say, ‘Why not, indeed We have your pious deeds (recorded) with Us and indeed you will not be oppressed today.’ A card will be taken out for him that will read, ‘I bear witness that there is no God but Allah (SWT) and that Muhammad (صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم) is His servant and His Messenger.’” The Messenger of Allah (صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم) said, “That man will say, ‘What will this card do against these registers?’ Allah (SWT) will say, ‘You will not be wronged.’ Then the registers will be placed in one scale (of the balance) and the card in the other scale. The registers will rise up and the card will weigh heavier.”

Chapter 39: Allah’s remembrance delivers from Satan

14. عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ رضي الله عنه قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صلي الله عليه وآله وسلم: إنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ وَاضِعٌ خُطَمَهُ عَلَى قَلْبِ بْنِ آدَمَ. فَإِنَّ ذِكْرَ اللهِ خَنَسَ وَإِنْ نَسِيَ الْتَقَمَ قَلْبُهُ. فَذَلِكَ الْوَسْوَاسُ الْخَنَّاسُ.
Anas ibn Mālik (رضی اللہ عنہ) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم) said, “Satan has placed his mouth upon the heart of Adam’s son. If he remembers Allah (SWT) Satan moves away, and if he forgets to remember Allah (SWT) Satan eats the mouthful of his heart. And this is (referred to in Allah’s words), ‘The Whisperer of evil who withdraws.’”
15. عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رضي الله عنهما فِي قَوْلِهِ (الْوَسْوَاسِ الْخَنَّاسِ) قَالَ: الشَّيْطَانُ جَاثِمٌ عَلَى قَلْبِ ابْنِ آدَمَ. فَإذَا سَهَا وَغَفَلَ وَسْوَسَ، وإِذَا ذَكَرَ اللهَ خَنَسَ.
Abdullah ibn Abbas (رضی اللہ عنھما) says about Allah’s words: ‘The Whisperer (of evil) who withdraws,’ “Satan rides man’s heart every moment. If he forgets or neglects, Satan whispers evil (into his mind). But when he remembers Allah, Satan withdraws.”
16. عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ شَقِيْقٍ رضي الله عنه قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صلي الله عليه وآله وسلم: مَا مِنْ آدَمِيٍّ إِلاَّ لِقَلْبِهِ بَيْتَانِ: فِي أَحَدِهِمَا الْمَلَكُ وَفِي الآخَرِ الشَّيْطَانُ. فَإِذَا ذَكَرَ اللهَ خَنَسَ، وَإِذَا لَمْ يَذْكُرِ اللهَ وَضَعَ مِنْقَارِهِ فِي قَلْبِهِ وَوَسْوَسَ.
Abdullah ibn Shaqiq (رضی اللہ عنہ) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم) said, “There are two compartments in everybody’s heart. In one of them reside angels while in the other dwells Satan. When a man remembers Allah (SWT), Satan moves away and when he does not remember Allah (SWT), Satan puts his beak (mouth) into his heart and whispers evil into it.”
17. عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رضي الله عنهما قَالَ: مَا مِنْ مَوْلُوْدٍ إِلاَّ عَلَى قَلْبِهِ الْوَسْوَاسُ. فَإِنْ ذَكَرَ اللهَ خَنَسَ وَإِنْ غَفَلَ وَسْوَسَ وَهُوَ قَوْلُهُ تَعَالَى (الْوَسْوَاسِ الْخَنَّاسِ).
Abdullah ibn Abbas (رضی اللہ عنھما) narrates, “There is nobody born without one who whispers evil into his heart. So if the servant remembers Allah (SWT) the whisperer moves away, and if he neglects, the whisperer whispers evil. It refers to the words of Allah, ‘The Whisperer (of evil) who withdraws.’”
18. عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رضي الله عنه أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّه صلي الله عليه وآله وسلم قَالَ: يَعْقِدُ الشَّيْطَانُ عَلَى قَافِيَةِ رَأْسِ أَحَدِكُمْ، إِذَا هُوَ نَامَ، ثَلَاثَ عُقَدٍ. يَضْرِبُ كُلَّ عُقْدَةٍ: عَلَيْكَ لَيْلٌ طَوِيلٌ، فَارْقُدْ. فَإِنِ اسْتَيْقَظَ فَذَكَرَ اللَّهَ انْحَلَّتْ عُقْدَةٌ. فَإِنْ تَوَضَّأَ انْحَلَّتْ عُقْدَةٌ. فَإِنْ صَلَّى انْحَلَّتْ عُقْدَةٌ. فَأَصْبَحَ نَشِيطًا طَيِّبَ النَّفْسِ وَإِلَّا أَصْبَحَ خَبِيثَ النَّفْسِ كَسْلاَنَ.
Abu Huraira (رضی اللہ عنہ) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم) said, “When one of you goes to sleep, Satan ties three knots at the back of his neck, sealing every knot with, ‘You have a long night, so sleep on.’ If he wakes and remembers Allah, then one knot is untied. If he performs ablution, the second knot is untied. Then if he prays, the third knot is untied. In the morning he will be active and in good spirits, otherwise he will be in bad spirits and lazy in the morning.”
19. عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رضي الله عنهما قَالَ: قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صلي الله عليه وآله وسلم: قَالَ إِبْلِيسُ: يَا رَبِّ، كُلُّ خَلْقِكَ قَدْ سِبْتَ أَرْزَاقَهُمْ، فَمَا رِزْقِي؟ قَالَ: كُلْ مَا لَمْ يُذْكَرْ اسْمِي عَلَيْهِ.
Abdullah ibn Abbas (رضی اللہ عنھما) narrates that the Holy Prophet (صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم) said, “Satan said, ‘O Lord, Whatever You have created You have also provided it subsistence. So fix my food as well. Allah (SWT) said, ‘Everything on which My name is not invoked is your food.’”
20. عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رضي الله عنهما قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صلي الله عليه وآله وسلم: مَنْ عَجَزَ مِنْكُمْ عَنِ اللَّيْلِ أَن يُّكَابِدَهُ وَبَخِلَ بِالْمَالِ أَن يُّنْفِقَهُ وَجَبُنَ عَنِ الْعُدُوِّ أَن يُّجَاهِدَهُ، فَلْيَكْثُرْ مِنْ ذِكرِ اللهِ.
Abullah ibn Abbas (رضی اللہ عنھما) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم) said, “Whoever among you is unable to bear the burden of worshipping at night, is stingy in spending his wealth and is a coward when it comes to fighting the enemy should remember Allah (SWT) greatly.”
21. عَنْ جَابِرٍ رضي الله عنه عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلي الله عليه وآله وسلم أَنَّهُ قَالَ: غَطُّوا الْإِنَاءَ، وَأَوْكُوا السِّقَاءَ، وَأَغْلِقُوا الْبَابَ، وَأَطْفِئُوا السِّرَاجَ، فَإِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ لَا يَحُلُّ سِقَاءً وَلَا يَفْتَحُ بَابًا وَلَا يَكْشِفُ إِنَاءً. فَإِنْ لَمْ يَجِدْ أَحَدُكُمْ إِلَّا أَنْ يَعْرُضَ عَلَى إِنَائِهِ عُودًا وَيَذْكُرَ اسْمَ اللَّهِ، فَلْيَفْعَلْ، فَإِنَّ الْفُوَيْسِقَةَ تُضْرِمُ عَلَى أَهْلِ الْبَيْتِ بَيْتَهُمْ.
Jabir (رضی اللہ عنہ) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم) said, “Cover the vessels, tie up the water-skin, shut the doors and extinguish the lamp, because Satan does not loosen a water-skin or open a door or uncover a vessel. If one of you cannot find anything but a piece of wood to put over his vessel and invoke His name on it, let him do so, because harmful things (mice) set a house on fire.”

Chapter 40: Allah’s remembrance will unburden the rememberers on the Day of Judgment

22. عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رضي الله عنه قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلي الله عليه وآله وسلم: سَبَقَ الْمُفْرِدُونَ. قَالُوا: وَمَا الْمُفْرِدُونَ، يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ؟ قَالَ: الْمُسْتَهْتَرُونَ فِي ذِكْرِ اللَّهِ، يَضَعُ الذِّكْرُ عَنْهُمْ أَثْقَالَهُمْ، فَيَأْتُونَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ خِفَافًا.
Abu Huraira (رضی اللہ عنہ) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم) said, “The mufarradun have taken the lead.” The Companions asked, “Who are the mufarradun, O Messenger of Allah?” He replied, “They are the people who have been intoxicated by remembrance of Allah (SWT) so much that they have gone insane. Dhikr will relieve them of their burden and they will come to Allah (SWT) on the Day of Resurrection fully relieved.”
23. عَنْ أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ رضي الله عنه قَالَ: كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صلي الله عليه وآله وسلم فِي سَفَرٍ، فَقَالَ: سَبَقَ الْمُفْرِدُوْنَ. قَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، وَمَا الْمُفْرِدُوْنَ؟ قَالَ: الْمُفْرِدُوْنَ بِذِكْرِ اللهِ وَضَعَ الذِّكْرُ عَنْهُمْ أَثْقَالَهُمْ. فَيَأْتُونَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ خِفَافًا.
Abu Darda (رضی اللہ عنہ) narrates, “When we were with the Messenger of Allah (صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم) on a journey, he said: ‘The mufarradun have taken the lead.’ The Companions asked, ‘Who are the mufarradun, O Messenger of Allah?’ He replied: ‘They are the ones who have been intoxicated by remembrance of Allah. The dhikr will relieve them of their burdens, so on the Day of Resurrection they will come to Allah relieved.’”

Chapter 41: “He is overwhelmed”

24. عَنْ جَابِرٍ رضي الله عنه أَنَّ رَجُلاً كَانَ يَرْفَعُ صَوْتَهُ بِالذِّكْرِ فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ: لَوْ أَنَّ هَذَا خَفَضَ مِنْ صَوْتِهِ. فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صلي الله عليه وآله وسلم: فَإِنَّهُ أَوَّاهٌ. قَالَ: فَمَاتَ فَرَأَى رَجُلٌ نَارًا فِي قَبْرِهِ فَأَتَاهُ فَإِذَا رَسُولُ اللهِ صلي الله عليه وآله وسلم فِيْهِ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ: هَلُمُّوا إِلَى صَاحِبِكُمْ. فَإِذَا هُوَ الرَّجُلُ الَّذِي كَانَ يَرْفَعُ صَوْتَهُ بِالذِّكْرِ.
Jabir ibn Abdullah (رضی اللہ عنھما) narrates that a man used to remember Allah (SWT) loudly so another man said that it would be better if he lowered his voice. The Messenger of Allah (صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم) said, “He is ecstatic.” When he died, a man saw light in his grave so he approached it. He saw the Messenger of Allah (صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم) was already there and was saying, “Come to this friend of yours. He is the same man who used to raise his voice while doing dhikr.”
25. عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ رضي الله عنهما قَالَ: رَأَى نَاسٌ نَارًا فِي الْمَقْبَرَةِ فَأَتُوْهَا فَإِذَا رَسُولُ اللهِ صلي الله عليه وآله وسلم فِي الْقَبْرِ وَإِذَا هُوَ يَقُولُ: نَاوِلُونِي صَاحِبَكُمْ. وَإِذَا هُوَ الرَّجُلُ الأَوَّاهُ الَّذِي يَرْفَعُ صَوْتَهُ بِالذِّكْرِ.
Jabir ibn Abdullah (رضی اللہ عنھما) narrates, “People saw light in the graveyard and when they approached it they saw the Messenger of Allah (صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم) standing in a grave. He was saying, ‘Pass your companion to me.’ He (the dead) was the same ecstatic man who used to raise his voice while remembering Allah.’”
26. عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ رضي الله عنهما قَالَ: رَأَى نَاسٌ نَارًا فِي الْمَقْبَرَةِ، فَأَتَوْهَا، فَإِذَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلي الله عليه وآله وسلم فِي الْقَبْرِ وَإِذَا هُوَ يَقُولُ: نَاوِلُونِي صَاحِبَكُمْ. فَإِذَا هُوَ الرَّجُلُ الَّذِي كَانَ يَرْفَعُ صَوْتَهُ بِالذِّكْرِ.
Jabir ibn Abdullah (رضی اللہ عنھما) narrates, “People sighted fire in a grave and came to it. The Messenger of Allah (صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم) , already standing in the grave, was saying, ‘Pass your companion to me.’ He was the man who raised his voice in the course of remembering Allah.”
27. عَنْ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ رضي الله عنه أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ رضي الله عنه قَالَ لِرَجُلٍ يُقَالُ لَهُ ذُو الْبِجَادَيْنِ: إِنَّهُ أَوَّاهٌ. وَذَلِكَ أَنَّهُ كَانَ كَثِيرَ الذِّكْرِ لِلَّهِ عزوجل فِي الْقُرْآنِ وَيَرْفَعُ صَوْتَهُ فِي الدُّعَاءِ.
Uqbah ibn Amir (رضی اللہ عنہ) narrates that the Holy Prophet (صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم) said about a man who was known as Dhul Bijadayn, “He is lost (in love of Allah),” because he used to remember Allah (SWT) a lot by reciting the Qur’an and raised his voice while making supplication.
28. عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رضي الله عنه قَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلي الله عليه وآله وسلم يَسِيرُ فِي طَرِيقِ مَكَّةَ، فَمَرَّ عَلَى جَبَلٍ يُقَالُ لَهُ جُمْدَانُ، فَقَالَ: سِيرُوا، هَذَا جُمْدَانُ، سَبَقَ الْمُفَرِّدُونَ. قَالُوا: وَمَا الْمُفَرِّدُونَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ؟ قَالَ: الذَّاكِرُونَ اللَّهَ كَثِيرًا وَالذَّاكِرَاتُ.
Abu Huraira (رضی اللہ عنہ) narrates when the Messenger of Allah (صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم) was travelling on his way to Makkah and came to a mountain called Jumdan, he said, “Go on, this is Jumdan; the mufarradun have gone ahead.” The Companions asked, “Who are the mufarradun, O Messenger of Allah?” He replied, “Those men and women who remember Allah greatly.”
