Hum se Sulaiman bin Harb ne bayan kiya, unhon ne kaha hum se Shu'bah ne bayan kiya, in se Mugheerah ne bayan kiya, in se Ibrahim ne bayan kiya ke Alqamah Radi Allahu Anhu Shaam mein tashreef le gaye aur masjid mein ja kar yeh dua ki. Ae Allah! Mujhe ek naik sathi ata farma, chunanche Aap ko Abu al-Darda Radi Allahu Anhu ki suhbat naseeb hui. Abu al-Darda Radi Allahu Anhu ne daryaft kiya: Tumhara talluq kahan se hai? Arz kiya ke Kufa se, is par unhon ne kaha: Kya tumhare yahan Nabi Kareem Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam ke raaz-dar nahi hain ke in raazon ko in ke siwa aur koi nahi janta? (in ki murad Abu Hudhaifah Radi Allahu Anhu se thi) unhon ne bayan kiya ke mein ne arz kiya ji haan maujood hain, phir unhon ne kaha kya tum mein woh shakhs nahi hain jinhein Allah Ta'ala ne apne nabi ki zabani Shaitan se apni panah di thi. In ki murad Ammar Radi Allahu Anhu se thi. mein ne arz kiya ke ji haan woh bhi maujood hain, is ke baad unhon ne daryaft kiya ke Abdullah bin Mas'ud Radi Allahu Anhu aayat "wal-laili idha yaghsha, wan-nahari idha tajalla" ki qira'at kis tarah karte thay? Mein ne kaha ke woh ("wa ma khalaqa" ke hazf ke sath) "wadh-dhakari wal-untha" parha karte thay. Is par unhon ne kaha yeh Shaam wale hamesha is koshish mein rahe ke is aayat ki tilawat ko jis tarah mein ne Rasoolullah Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam se suna tha is se mujhe hata dein.
