Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا حَسَنٌ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عُشَّانَةَ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ عُقْبَةَ بْنَ عَامِرٍ يَقُولُ لَا أَقُولُ الْيَوْمَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّ
ى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَا لَمْ يَقُلْ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ مَنْ قَالَ عَلَيَّ مَا لَمْ أَقُلْ فَلْيَتَبَوَّأْ بَيْتًا مِنْ جَهَنَّمَ وَسَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ رَجُلَانِ مِنْ أُمَّتِي يَقُومُ أَحَدُهُمَا مِنْ اللَّيْلِ فَيُعَالِجُ نَفْسَهُ إِلَى الطَّهُورِ وَعَلَيْهِ عُقَدٌ فَيَتَوَضَّأُ فَإِذَا وَضَّأَ يَدَيْهِ انْحَلَّتْ عُقْدَةٌ وَإِذَا مَسَحَ رَأْسَهُ انْحَلَّتْ عُقْدَةٌ وَإِذَا وَضَّأَ وَجْهَهُ انْحَلَّتْ عُقْدَةٌ وَإِذَا مَسَحَ رَأْسَهُ انْحَلَّتْ عُقْدَةٌ وَإِذَا وَضَّأَ رِجْلَيْهِ انْحَلَّتْ عُقْدَةٌ فَيَقُولُ الرَّبُّ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ لِلَّذِينَ وَرَاءَ الْحِجَابِ انْظُرُوا إِلَى عَبْدِي هَذَا يُعَالِجُ نَفْسَهُ مَا سَأَلَنِي عَبْدِي هَذَا فَهُوَ لَهُ

ابن لهيعة
أبو عشانة
English Translation
ʿUqbah ibn ʿĀmir narrated: Today I will not say anything about the Messenger of Allah ﷺ that he did not say. I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: "Whoever says about me what I did not say, let him take his seat in a house of Hellfire." And I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: "Two men from my Ummah — one of them rises at night and struggles to purify himself, and upon him are knots. He performs wuḍūʾ: when he washes his hands a knot is undone, when he washes his face a knot is undone, when he wipes his head a knot is undone, and when he washes his feet a knot is undone. Then the Lord عز وجل says to those behind the veil: 'Look at this servant of Mine struggling with himself. Whatever this servant of Mine asks Me, it is his.'"
