حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَفْصِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ السُّلَمِيُّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ طَهْمَانَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عَبَّادِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ الزُّهْرِيِّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ ضَمْرَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أُنَيْسٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَبِيهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ كُنْتُ فِي مَجْلِسِ بَنِي سَلَمَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَأَنَا أَصْغَرُهُمْ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالُوا:‏‏‏‏ مَنْ يَسْأَلُ لَنَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ لَيْلَةِ الْقَدْرِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَذَلِكَ صَبِيحَةَ إِحْدَى وَعِشْرِينَ مِنْ رَمَضَانَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَخَرَجْتُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَوَافَيْتُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ صَلَاةَ الْمَغْرِبِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ثُمَّ قُمْتُ بِبَابِ بَيْتِهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَمَرَّ بِي، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ ادْخُلْ ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَدَخَلْتُ فَأُتِيَ بِعَشَائِهِ فَرَآنِي أَكُفُّ عَنْهُ مِنْ قِلَّتِهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَلَمَّا فَرَغَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ نَاوِلْنِي نَعْلِي ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَامَ وَقُمْتُ مَعَهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ كَأَنَّ لَكَ حَاجَةً قُلْتُ:‏‏‏‏ أَجَلْ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَرْسَلَنِي إِلَيْكَ رَهْطٌ مِنْ بَنِي سَلَمَةَ يَسْأَلُونَكَ عَنْ لَيْلَةِ الْقَدْرِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ كَمْ اللَّيْلَةُ ؟ فَقُلْتُ:‏‏‏‏ اثْنَتَانِ وَعِشْرُونَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ هِيَ اللَّيْلَةُ ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ثُمَّ رَجَعَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ أَوِ الْقَابِلَةُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏يُرِيدُ لَيْلَةَ ثَلَاثٍ وَعِشْرِينَ .

I was present at the gathering of Banu Salamah, and I was the youngest of them. They (the people) said: Who will ask the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم for us about Laylat al-Qadr? That was the twenty-first of Ramadan. I went out and said the sunset prayer along with the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم. I then stood at the door of his house. He passed by me and said: Come in. I entered (the house) and dinner was brought for him. I was prevented from taking food as it was scanty. When he finished his dinner, he said to me: Give me my shoes. He then stood up and I also stood up with him. He said: Perhaps you have some business with me. I said: Yes. Some people of Banu Salamah have sent me to you to ask you about Laylat al-Qadr. He asked: Which night: Is it tonight? I said: Twenty-second. He said: This is the very night. He then withdrew and said: Or the following night, referring to the twenty-third night.
