حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ وَكِيعٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، عَنْ فُضَيْلِ بْنِ مَرْزُوقٍ، عَنْ عَطِيَّةَ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ

قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «لَلَّهُ أَفْرَحُ بِتَوْبَةِ عَبْدِهِ مِنْ رَجُلٍ أَضَلَّ رَاحِلَتَهُ بِفَلَاةٍ مِنَ الأَرْضِ فَالْتَمَسَهَا حَتَّى إِذَا أَعْيَى تَسَجَّى بِثَوْبِهِ فَبَيْنَا هُوَ كَذَلِكَ إِذْ سَمِعَ وَجْبَةَ الرَّاحِلَةِ حَيْثُ فَقَدَهَا فَكَشَفَ الثَّوْبَ عَنْ وَجْهِهِ فَإِذَا هُوَ بِرَاحِلَتِهِ»

The Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) said: “Allah rejoices more over the repentance of His slave, than a man who loses his mount in a barren land, and he searches for it until he gets tired and covers his face with his garment, and while he is like that, he heard the footsteps of his mount where he lost it, so he lifts the garment from his face and there is his mount.”

আবূ সাঈদ (রাঃ) থেকে বর্ণিত। তিনি বলেন, নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বলেছেনঃ কোন বান্দা বিজন প্রান্তরে তার বাহনের উট হারিয়ে ফেললো, অতঃপর তার অনুসন্ধান করতে করতে শেষে নিরাশ ও অবসন্ন হয়ে তার কাপড় মুড়ি দিয়ে শুয়ে পড়লো। এ অবস্থায় হঠাৎ সে তার হারিয়ে যাওয়া বাহনের আওয়াজ শুনতে পেয়ে নিজের মুখমন্ডল থেকে তার কাপড় সরিয়ে তার উট তার সামনে উপস্থিত দেখতে পেয়ে যতো আনন্দিত হয়, আল্লাহ তাঁর বান্দার তওবায় ততোধিক আনন্দিত হন।

ابو سعید خدری رضی اللہ عنہ کہتے ہیں کہ رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فرمایا: اللہ تعالیٰ اپنے بندے کی توبہ سے ایسے ہی خوش ہوتا ہے جیسے کسی آدمی کی سواری چٹیل میدان میں کھو جائے، وہ اس کو تلاش کرے یہاں تک کہ جب وہ تھک جائے تو کپڑے سے اپنا منہ ڈھانک کر لیٹ جائے، اسی حالت میں اچانک وہ اپنی سواری کے قدموں کی چاپ وہاں سے آتی سنے جہاں اسے کھویا تھا، وہ اپنے چہرے سے اپنا کپڑا اٹھائے تو دیکھے کہ اس کی سواری موجود ہے ۔

Telah menceritakan kepada kami [Sufyan bin Waki'] telah menceritakan kepada kami [ayahku] dari [Fudlail bin Marzuq] dari ['Athiyah] dari [Abu Sa'id] dia berkata; Rasulullah shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam bersabda: "Allah lebih berbahagia dengan taubat hamba-Nya dari bahagianya seseorang yang kehilangan kendaraan (unta) yang membawa seluruh kebutuhan hidupnya dalam perjalanan di padang pasir yang sangat luas, ketika dia sudah berusaha mencari kemana-mana, dan berhenti dengan menutup pakaiannya, tiba-tiba dia mendengar suara, setelah menyingkap pakaiannya tiba-tiba ia mendapatkan kendaraannya berada di hadapannya

Ebu Saîd (r.a.)'den rivayet edildiğine göre; Resulullah (Sallallahu Aleyhi ve Sellem) şöyle buyurdu, demiştir: Allah, kulunun tevbesine şu adam'ın sevinmesinden daha çok sevinir (yani razı olur) ki (yolculuk halinde olan) o adam bir susuz çölde binit devesini kaybeder. Bunun üzerine adamcağız yitik devesini aramaya koyulur. Nihayet o arayış, adamı cidden yorup aciz bırakınca (susuzluk ve sıcaktan dolayı olduğu yerde ölmek üzere başını yere koyup) elbisesini başına çekip örtünür.

İşte kendisi o halde olduğu sırada devesini kaybettiği yerde aniden hayvanının ayak sesini duyar. Bunun üzerine yüzüne çektiği örtüyü açar ve hemen binit hayvanı ile karşılaşır." Not: Zevaid'de şöyle denilmiştir: Bunun senedinde Atiyye el-Avn ve Süfyan bin Veki bulunur. İkisi de zayıftır. Fakat hadisin aslını Buhari ile Müslim, İbni Mes'ud ve Enes (r.a.)'ın rivayet ettikleri hadis olarak nakletmişler. AÇIKLAMA 4250’de

What it means

The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) informs us that Allah is extremely pleased with His slave's return to Him by obeying Him and fulfilling His commands, sincerely from his heart. His pleasure is more than the pleasure of a person who was in a desert with no one around him – no water, food, or people – and he lost his camel.

He looked for it but failed to find it. So he went to lie under a tree awaiting death. He lost hope in finding his camel and lost hope in life, for his food and drink were on the back of his lost camel. Then suddenly, in this state of hopelessness, he finds his camel right in front of him, its reins attached to the same tree he slept beneath.

What is comparable to such happiness? No one can truly relate to such joy except one who was in the same situation. Indeed, it is great joy; joy of life after death. For this reason he took hold of its reins and cried, "O Allah, You are my slave and I am Your Lord!" He wanted to praise Allah saying: "O Allah, You are my Lord and I am Your slave!" but due to his extreme joy, he confused his words.
