English

Ubayy ibn Ka‘b (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: When one-third of the night had passed, the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) would get up and call out: 'O people, remember Allah. The Rājifah has come (the first blowing of the Horn which will shake the whole universe and thus cause all life to cease), followed by the Rādifah (the second blowing of the Horn which will restore life and thus mark the Resurrection Day). Death has approached with all that it comprises.

Death has approached with all that it comprises." I said: "O Messenger of Allah, I frequently invoke Allah's peace and blessings upon you.

How much of my supplication should I devote to you?" He said: "As much as you wish." I said: 'A quarter?' He said: "As much as you wish, and if it is more, then it will be better for you." I said: "Then, one half?" He said: "As much as you wish, and if it is more, then it will be better for you." I said: "Then, two- thirds?" He said: "As much as you wish, and if it is more, then it will be better for you." I said: "Shall I devote all my supplication to invoke Allah's peace and blessings upon you?" He said: "Then, you will be relieved of your worries and your sins will be forgiven."

عن أبي بن كعب رضي الله عنه : كان رسولُ اللهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم إذا ذَهَبَ ثُلثُ الليلِ قامَ، فقال: "يا أيها الناسُ، اذكروا اللهَ، جاءت الرَّاجِفَةُ، تَتْبَعُها الرَّادِفَةُ، جاءَ الموتُ بما فيه، جاءَ الموتُ بما فيه"، قلتُ: يا رسول الله، إني أُكْثِرُ الصلاةَ عليكَ، فكم أجعلُ لكَ من صلاتِي؟ فقالَ: "ما شِئتَ"، قلتُ: الرُّبُعَ؟، قالَ: "ما شئتَ، فإنْ زِدتَ فهو خيرٌ لكَ"، قلتُ: فالنّصفَ؟، قالَ: "ما شئتَ، فإن زِدتَ فهو خيرٌ لكَ"، قلتُ: فالثلثين؟ قالَ: "ما شئتَ، فإن زدتَ فهو خيرٌ لكَ"، قلتُ: أجعلُ لكَ صلاتِي كُلَّها؟ قالَ: "إذاً تُكْفى هَمَّكَ، ويُغْفَرَ لكَ ذَنبُكَ".
