حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ مُحْرِزٍ أَنَّ رَجُلًا سَأَلَ ابْنَ عُمَرَ کَيْفَ سَمِعْتَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ فِي النَّجْوَی قَالَ يَدْنُو أَحَدُکُمْ مِنْ رَبِّهِ حَتَّی يَضَعَ کَنَفَهُ عَلَيْهِ فَيَقُولُ أَعَمِلْتَ کَذَا وَکَذَا فَيَقُولُ نَعَمْ وَيَقُولُ عَمِلْتَ کَذَا وَکَذَا فَيَقُولُ نَعَمْ فَيُقَرِّرُهُ ثُمَّ يَقُولُ إِنِّي سَتَرْتُ عَلَيْکَ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَأَنَا أَغْفِرُهَا لَکَ الْيَوْمَ وَقَالَ آدَمُ حَدَّثَنَا شَيْبَانُ حَدَّثَنَا قَتَادَةُ حَدَّثَنَا صَفْوَانُ عَنْ ابْنِ عُمَرَ سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ
صحیح بخاری · Hadith 7514
Narrated Safwan bin Muhriz: A man asked Ibn `Umar, "What have you heard from Allah's Apostle regarding An-Najwa?" He said, "Everyone of you will come close to His Lord Who will screen him from the people and say to him, 'Did you do so-and-so?' He will reply, 'Yes.' Then Allah will say, 'Did you do so-and-so?' He will reply, 'Yes.' So Allah will question him and make him confess, and then Allah will say, 'I screened your sins in the world and forgive them for you today.' "
