Hadith 25
۞
24. Abu Nasr Muhammad ibn Ahmad ibn Tamim al-Sarkhasi said: Hariz on the authority of `Abd al-`Aziz, on the authority of Zayd ibn Wahb, on the authority of Abu Dharr (may Allah have mercy upon him) that I went out one night. The Messenger of Allah (sw) was all alone. I thought that he was averse to anyone walking with him. When I started walking in the moon light, he turned around and saw me. He enquired, “What is that?” I answered, “Abu Dharr. May Allah make me your ransom!” He (sw) said
“Come here, O Abu Dharr!” So I walked with him for some time. He said: Verily, the ones with much will be the ones with less. On the Day of Resurrection with the exception of those Allah has favoured. His Favour will spread to them from right to left, and from front to back. It will fill them with good. Abu Dharr says: I continued to walk with him for a while. Then he (sw) said: “Sit down here. He made me sit down in some low ground around which was stones.” He said to me, “Sit down until I return to you.” He (Abu Dharr) said: He went to a stony area until I could no longer see him. His delay was prolonged. Then I heard him coming, while saying, “Even if he fornicated and eve if he stole?” He said: When he came back, I immediately asked him, “O Prophet of Allah! May Allah make me your ransom! Who are you talking to in the stony area for I did not hear anyone answer you?” He replied, “It was Jibra’il who appeared to me in that stony area and said: `Glad tidings to your Ummah that anyone who dies without associating anything with Allah, the Mighty and High, will enter Heaven.” He (sw) added, “I asked Jibra’il: `Even if he fornicated and even if he stole?’ He replied: `Yes, and even if he drank wine.’”
The Compiler of this book says: What he means by this is that he will succeed in repentance so that he may enter Paradise.

24 - حدثنا أبو نصر محمد بن أحمد بن تميم السرخسي، قال: حدثنا أبو لبيد محمد بن إدريس الشامي، قال: حدثنا إسحاق بن إسرائيل، قال: حدثنا حريز عن عبد العزيز، عن زيد بن وهب، عن أبي ذر - رحمه الله - قال
خرجت ليلة من الليالي فإذا رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم يمشي وحده ليس معه إنسان، فظننت أنه يكره أن يمشي معه أحد، قال: فجعلت أمشي في ظل القمر، فالتفت فرآني، فقال: من هذا؟ قلت: أبو ذر جعلني الله فداك، قال: يا أبا ذر تعال، فمشيت معه ساعة، فقال: إن المكثرين هم الأقلون يوم القيامة إلا من أعطاه الله خيرا فنفح منه بيمينه وشماله وبين يديه ووراءه وعمل فيه خيرا، قال: فمشيت معه ساعة، فقال: اجلس ههنا، وأجلسني في قاع حوله حجارة، فقال لي: إجلس حتى أرجع إليك، قال: وانطلق في الحرة حتى لم أره وتوارى عني، فأطال اللبث، ثم إني سمعته صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم وهو مقبل وهو يقول: وإن زنى أن سرق، قال: فلما جاء لم أصبر حتى قلت: يا نبي الله جعلني الله فداك من تكلمه في جانب الحرة؟ فإني ما سمعت أحدا يرد عليك من الجواب شيئا، قال: ذاك جبرئيل عرض لي في جانب الحرة، فقال: بشر أمتك أنه من مات لا يشرك بالله عز وجل شيئا دخل الجنة، قال: قلت: يا جبرئيل وإن زنى وإن سرق؟ قال: نعم وإن شرب الخمر . قال مصنف هذا الكتاب: يعني بذلك أنه يوفق للتوبة حتى يدخل الجنة.
