حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ الثَّقَفِيِّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ رَبِيعَةَ الْأَسَدِيِّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَسْمَاءَ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ الْفَزَارِيِّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ سَمِعْتُ عَلِيًّا رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏يَقُولُ:‏‏‏‏ كُنْتُ رَجُلًا إِذَا سَمِعْتُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَدِيثًا نَفَعَنِي اللَّهُ مِنْهُ بِمَا شَاءَ أَنْ يَنْفَعَنِي، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَإِذَا حَدَّثَنِي أَحَدٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ اسْتَحْلَفْتُهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَإِذَا حَلَفَ لِي صَدَّقْتُهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ وَحَدَّثَنِي أَبُو بَكْرٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَصَدَقَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَنَّهُ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏يَقُولُ:‏‏‏‏ مَا مِنْ عَبْدٍ يُذْنِبُ ذَنْبًا فَيُحْسِنُ الطُّهُورَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ثُمَّ يَقُومُ فَيُصَلِّي رَكْعَتَيْنِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ثُمَّ يَسْتَغْفِرُ اللَّهَ إِلَّا غَفَرَ اللَّهُ لَهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ثُمَّ قَرَأَ هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ:‏‏‏‏ وَالَّذِينَ إِذَا فَعَلُوا فَاحِشَةً أَوْ ظَلَمُوا أَنْفُسَهُمْ ذَكَرُوا اللَّهَ سورة آل عمران آية 135 إِلَى آخِرِ الْآيَةِ .

I heard Ali رضی اللہ عنہ say: I was a man; when I heard a tradition from the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم, Allah benefited me with it as much as He willed. But when some one of his companions narrated a tradition to me I adjured him. When he took an oath, I testified him. Abu Bakr رضی اللہ عنہ narrated to me a tradition, and Abu Bakr رضی اللہ عنہ narrated truthfully. He said: I heard the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم saying: When a servant (of Allah) commits a sin, and he performs ablution well, and then stands and prays two rak'ahs, and asks pardon of Allah, Allah pardons him. He then recited this verse: And those who, when they commit indecency or wrong their souls, remember Allah (iii. 134).
