`Hum se Sulaiman bin Harb ne bayan kiya, unhon ne kaha hum se Hammad bin Zaid ne bayan kiya, un se Said bin Hilal al-Anzi ne bayan kiya, unhon ne kaha ke Basra ke kuch log hamare paas jama ho gaye. Phir hum Anas bin Malik Radi Allahu Anhu ke paas gaye aur apne saath Sabit Radi Allahu Anhu ko bhi le gaye taake wo hamare liye shafa'at ki hadees poochein. Anas Radi Allahu Anhu apne mahal mein thay aur jab hum pahunche to wo chasht ki namaz parh rahe thay. Hum ne mulaqat ki ijazat chahi aur humein ijazat mil gayi. Is waqt wo apne bister par baithe thay. Hum ne Sabit se kaha tha ke hadees-e-shafa'at se pehle un se aur kuch na poochna. Chunancha unhon ne kaha: ay Abu Hamza! yeh aap ke bhai Basra se aaye hain aur aap se shafa'at ki hadees poochna chahte hain. Unhon ne kaha ke hum se Muhammad صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ne bayan kiya, Aap صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ne farmaya ke qayamat ka din jab aaye ga to log thaathein maarte hue samandar ki tarah zahir hon ge. Phir wo Adam Alaihis Salam ke paas aayein ge aur un se kahein ge ke hamari apne Rabb ke paas shafa'at kijiye. Wo kahein ge ke mein is qabil nahi hoon tum Ibrahim Alaihis Salam ke paas jao, wo Allah ke khaleel hain. Log Ibrahim Alaihis Salam ke paas aayein ge wo bhi kahein ge ke mein is qabil nahi hoon, haan tum Musa Alaihis Salam ke paas jao ke wo Allah se sharaf-e-hum-kalami pane wale hain. Log Musa Alaihis Salam ke paas aayein ge aur wo bhi kahein ge ke mein is qabil nahi hoon, albatta tum Isa Alaihis Salam ke paas jao ke wo Allah ki rooh aur is ka kalma hain. Chunancha log Isa Alaihis Salam ke paas aayein ge wo bhi kahein ge ke mein is qabil nahi hoon, haan tum Muhammad صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ke paas jao. Log mere paas aayein ge aur mein kahoon ga ke mein shafa'at ke liye hoon aur phir mein apne Rabb se ijazat chahoon ga aur mujhe ijazat di jaye gi aur Allah Ta'ala tareefon ke alfaz mujhe ilham kare ga jin ke zariya mein Allah ki hamd bayan karoon ga jo is waqt mujhe yaad nahi hain. Chunancha jab mein yeh tareefein bayan karoon ga Allah ke huzoor mein sajda karne wala ho jaoon ga to mujh se kaha jaye ga: ay Muhammad! apna sar uthao, jo kaho wo suna jaye ga, jo mango ge wo diya jaye ga, jo shafa'at karo ge qabool ki jaye gi. Phir mein kahoon ga: ay Rabb! meri ummat, meri ummat, kaha jaye ga ke jao aur in logon ko dozakh se nikal lo jin ke dil mein zarra ya rai barabar bhi iman ho. Chunancha mein jaoon ga aur aisa hi karoon ga. Phir mein lautoon ga aur yahi tareefein phir karoon ga aur Allah ke liye sajda mein chala jaoon ga mujh se kaha jaye ga. Apna sar uthao kaho, Aap ki suni jaye gi, mein kahoon ga: ay Rabb! meri ummat, meri ummat. Allah Ta'ala farmaye ga: jao aur jis ke dil mein ek rai ke daane ke kam se kam-tar hissa ke barabar bhi iman ho ise bhi jahannum se nikal lo. Phir mein jaoon ga aur nikaloong ga. Phir jab hum Anas Radi Allahu Anhu ke paas se nikle to mein ne apne baaz sathiyon se kaha ke humein Imam Hasan Basri ke paas bhi chalna chahiye, wo is waqt Abu Khalifa ke makan mein thay aur un se wo hadees bayan karni chahiye jo Anas Radi Allahu Anhu ne hum se bayan ki hai. Chunancha hum un ke paas aaye aur unhein salam kiya. Phir unhon ne humein ijazat di aur hum ne un se kaha: ay Abu Said! hum aap ke paas aap ke bhai Anas bin Malik Radi Allahu Anhu ke yahan se aaye hain aur unhon ne hum se jo shafa'at ke mutalliq hadees bayan ki, is jaisi hadees hum ne nahi suni, unhon ne kaha ke bayan karo. Hum ne un se hadees bayan ki jab is maqaam tak pahunche to unhon ne kaha ke aur bayan karo, hum ne kaha ke is se zyada unhon ne nahi bayan ki. Unhon ne kaha ke Anas Radi Allahu Anhu jab sehat mand thay, bees saal ab se pehle to unhon ne mujh se yeh hadees bayan ki thi. Mujhe maloom nahi ke wo baqi bhool gaye ya is liye bayan karna napasand kiya ke kahin log bharosa na kar baithein. Hum ne kaha Abu Said! phir hum se wo hadees bayan kijiye. Aap is par hanse aur farmaya: insan bada jald-baaz paida kiya gaya hai. Mein ne is ka zikr hi is liye kiya hai ke tum se bayan karna chahta hoon. Anas Radi Allahu Anhu ne mujh se isi tarah hadees bayan ki jis tarah tum se bayan ki (aur is mein yeh lafz aur barhaye) Nabi Kareem صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ne farmaya ke phir mein chauthi martaba lautoon ga aur wahi tareefein karoon ga aur Allah ke liye sajda mein chala jaoon ga. Allah farmaye ga: ay Muhammad! apna sar uthao, jo kaho ge suna jaye ga, jo mango ge diya jaye ga, jo shafa'at karo ge qabool ki jaye gi. Mein kahoon ga: ay Rabb! mujhe un ke bare mein bhi ijazat dijiye jinhon ne La ilaha illallahu kaha hai. Allah Ta'ala farmaye ga meri izzat, Mere jalal, Meri kibriyai, Meri badayi ki qasam! is mein se (Mein) unhein bhi nikaloong ga jinhon ne kalma La ilaha illallahu kaha hai.
