عِنْدَ حصول نعمة ظاهرة أَو اندفاع بلية ظاهرة [1159] عن سعد بن أَبي وقاص قال : خَرَجْنَا مَعَ رسولِ الله مِنْ مَكّةَ نُريدُ المَدِينَةَ ، فَلَمَّا كُنَّا قَرِيباً مِنْ عَزْوَرَاءَ نَزَلَ ثُمَّ رَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ فَدَعَا الله سَاعَةً ، ثُمَّ خَرَّ سَاجِداً ، فَمَكَثَ طَويلاً ، ثُمَّ قَامَ فَرَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ سَاعَةً ، ثُمَّ خَرَّ سَاجِداً - فَعَلَهُ ثَلاثَاً - وقال : « إنِّي سَألتُ رَبِّي ، وَشَفَعْتُ لأُمَّتِي ، فَأعْطَانِي ثُلُثَ أُمَّتِي ، فَخَرَرْتُ سَاجِداً لِرَبِّي شُكْراً ، ثُمَّ رَفَعْتُ رَأسِي ، فَسَألْتُ رَبِّي لأُمَّتِي ، فَأعْطَانِي ثُلُثَ أُمَّتِي، فَخَرَرْتُ سَاجِداً لِرَبِّي شُكْراً ، ثُمَّ رَفَعْتُ رَأسِي ، فَسَألْتُ رَبِّي لأُمَّتِي ، فَأعْطَانِي الثُّلثَ الآخَرَ ، فَخَرَرْتُ سَاجِداً لِرَبِّي » . رواه أَبُو داود . في هذا الحديث : مشروعية سجود الشكر . وفيه : استحباب رفع اليدين في الدعاء . وفيه : تكرير السجود بتكرر المقتضي له . وفيه : بشارة بأن جميع المؤمنين لا يخلدون في النار .
1159. Sa'd bin Abu Waqqas (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: We left Makkah with the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) for Al-Madinah, and when we were near 'Azwara,' he (PBUH) alighted (from his riding-camel) raised his hands in supplication to Allah for a while and prostrated himself. He remained for a long time in prostration. Then he stood up and raised his hands for a while, after which he prostrated himself (again), and remained for a long time in prostration. Then he stood up and raised his hands for a while, after which he prostrated himself for the third time. Then he (PBUH) said, "I supplicated my Rubb and made intercession for my Ummah, and He granted me one-third of them. So I again prostrated myself in gratitude to my Rubb. Then I raised my head and supplicated my Rubb for my Ummah, and He granted me another third of them. Again I raised my head and supplicated my Rubb for my Ummah and He granted me the last third of them. So I fell into prostration out of gratitude before my Rubb."
[Abu Dawud].
Commentary: The phrase "I supplicated my Rubb and made intercession for my Ummah" means that the Prophet (PBUH) prayed to Allah to pardon his Ummah and to admit them to Jannah. The interpretation of this Hadith is stated to be that ultimately all the Muslims will be sent to Jannah. They will not abide in Hell for ever. Some of them will go to Jannah after suffering the punishment for their major sins, some through the intercession of the Prophet (PBUH), and some by the Special Grace of Allah. This interpretation is no doubt true. This is confirmed by other Ahadith and forms the belief of the followers of Sunnah of the Prophet (PBUH). But the Hadith under discussion is not "Sahih". However, Sujud-ush-Shukr (prostrations for thanksgiving), in support of which Imam An-Nawawi has reproduced this Hadith here, is also proved by other Ahadith. To prostrate in gratitude to Allah is correct and permissible . The incident of K'ab bin Malik is included in Sahih Bukhari and Sahih Muslim, which shows that after he came to know that his repentance was accepted, he prostrated to give thanks to Allah. According to the Shafi'i school of thought, the basic elements of Sujud-ush-Shukr (or prostrations to express thanks to Allah) are: (a) the intention (in the heart), (b) the Takbir, (c) prostration and (d) Taslim; the Hanafi school of thought, however, maintain that it is an act of prostration between two Takbir. It is permissible to perform it outside Salat, but not during it because it will invalidate it, if one does so deliberately.
