النص العربي

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَهَّابِ بْنُ نَجْدَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْيَمَانِ ، عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ عَمْرٍو ، عَنْ أَبِي إِدْرِيسَ السَّكُونِيِّ ، عَنْ جُبَيْرِ بْنِ نُفَيْرٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ ، قَالَ : "

أَوْصَانِي خَلِيلِي صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِثَلَاثٍ لَا أَدَعُهُنَّ لِشَيْءٍ : أَوْصَانِي بِصِيَامِ ثَلَاثَةِ أَيَّامٍ مِنْ كُلِّ شَهْرٍ ، وَلَا أَنَامُ إِلَّا عَلَى وِتْرٍ ، وَبِسُبْحَةِ الضُّحَى فِي الْحَضَرِ وَالسَّفَرِ
