حَدَّثَنَا بَهْزٌ حَدَّثَنَا أَبَانُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ الْعَطَّارُ حَدَّثَنَا قَتَادَةُ عَنْ أَبِي الْعَالِيَةِ الرِّيَاحِيِّ عَنِ ابْنِ عَمِّ نَبِيِّكُمْ يَعْنِي ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ أَنَّ نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يَدْعُو بِهَذِهِ الدَّعَوَاتِ عِنْدَ الْكَرْبِ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ الْعَظِيمُ الْحَلِيمُ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ رَبُّ الْعَرْشِ الْعَظِيمِ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ رَبُّ السَّمَوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ رَبُّ الْعَرْشِ الْكَرِيمِ
English Translation
Bahz narrated to us, Aban ibn Yazid al-'Attar narrated to us, Qatadah narrated to us, from Abu al-'Aliyah al-Riyahi, from the cousin of your Prophet ﷺ — meaning Ibn 'Abbas (رضي الله عنهما) — that the Prophet ﷺ of Allah ﷺ said: 'On the night I was taken on the Night Journey, I saw Musa (عليه السلام) — a tall, brown-skinned man, as if he was from the men of Shanu'ah. And I saw 'Isa (عليه السلام) — a man of moderate build, red-complexioned, as if he had just come out of a bath. And I saw Ibrahim (عليه السلام), and I am the one who most resembles him among his descendants.' Then he was brought two vessels — one of milk and one of wine. He said: 'Drink whichever you wish.' So I took the milk and drank it. He said: 'You have been guided to the fitrah (natural disposition). Had you taken the wine, your ummah would have gone astray.'
