حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ حَدَّثَنَا حَفْصُ بْنُ عُمَرَ عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَطَائٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي الدَّرْدَائِ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ إِنَّهُ لَيَسْتَغْفِرُ لِلْعَالِمِ مَنْ فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَمَنْ فِي الْأَرْضِ حَتَّی الْحِيتَانِ فِي الْبَحْرِ
ابن ماجہ · Hadith 239
It was narrated that Abu Dharr said: “I heard the Messenger of Allah P.B.U.H say: ‘Everyone in the universe, in the heavens and on earth, prays for forgiveness for the scholar, even the fish in the sea.” (Da’if)
