النص العربي

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْوَلِيدِ الطَّيَالِسِيُّ ، وَعَلِيُّ بْنُ الْجَعْدِ ، قَالَا : حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ مُرَّةَ ، عَنْ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ مَوْلَى الْأَنْصَارِ ، عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ بَنِي عَبْسٍ ، عَنْ حُذَيْفَةَ ، أَنَّهُ رَأَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ "

يُصَلِّي مِنَ اللَّيْلِ ، فَكَانَ يَقُولُ : اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ ثَلَاثًا ذُو الْمَلَكُوتِ وَالْجَبَرُوتِ وَالْكِبْرِيَاءِ وَالْعَظَمَةِ ، ثُمَّ اسْتَفْتَحَ فَقَرَأَ الْبَقَرَةَ ، ثُمَّ رَكَعَ فَكَانَ رُكُوعُهُ نَحْوًا مِنْ قِيَامِهِ ، وَكَانَ يَقُولُ فِي رُكُوعِهِ : سُبْحَانَ رَبِّيَ الْعَظِيمِ ، سُبْحَانَ رَبِّيَ الْعَظِيمِ ، ثُمَّ رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ مِنَ الرُّكُوعِ فَكَانَ قِيَامُهُ نَحْوًا مِنْ رُكُوعِهِ ، يَقُولُ : لِرَبِّيَ الْحَمْدُ ، ثُمَّ سَجَدَ فَكَانَ سُجُودُهُ نَحْوًا مِنْ قِيَامِهِ ، فَكَانَ يَقُولُ فِي سُجُودِهِ : سُبْحَانَ رَبِّيَ الْأَعْلَى ، ثُمَّ رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ مِنَ السُّجُودِ ، وَكَانَ يَقْعُدُ فِيمَا بَيْنَ السَّجْدَتَيْنِ نَحْوًا مِنْ سُجُودِهِ ، وَكَانَ يَقُولُ : رَبِّ اغْفِرْ لِي ، رَبِّ اغْفِرْ لِي ، فَصَلَّى أَرْبَعَ رَكَعَاتٍ فَقَرَأَ فِيهِنَّ الْبَقَرَةَ ، وَآلَ عِمْرَانَ ، وَالنِّسَاءَ ، وَالْمَائِدَةَ ، أَوْ الْأَنْعَامَ
