حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَيُّوبَ، وَإِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، جَمِيعًا عَنِ ابْنِ عُلَيَّةَ، قَالَ ابْنُ أَيُّوبَ: حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ عُلَيَّةَ، حَدَّثَنَا يُونُسُ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ يَزِيدَ التَّيْمِيِّ، - سَمِعَهُ فِيمَا أَعْلَمُ - عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ يَوْمًا: «أَتَدْرُونَ أَيْنَ تَذْهَبُ هَذِهِ الشَّمْسُ؟» قَالُوا: اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ قَالَ: إِنَّ هَذِهِ تَجْرِي حَتَّى تَنْتَهِيَ إِلَى مُسْتَقَرِّهَا تَحْتَ الْعَرْشِ، فَتَخِرُّ سَاجِدَةً، فَلَا تَزَالُ كَذَلِكَ حَتَّى يُقَالَ لَهَا: ارْتَفِعِي، ارْجِعِي مِنْ حَيْثُ جِئْتِ، فَتَرْجِعُ فَتُصْبِحُ طَالِعَةً مِنْ مَطْلِعِهَا، ثُمَّ تَجْرِي حَتَّى تَنْتَهِيَ إِلَى مُسْتَقَرِّهَا تَحْتَ الْعَرْشِ، فَتَخِرُّ سَاجِدَةً، وَلَا تَزَالُ كَذَلِكَ حَتَّى يُقَالَ لَهَا: ارْتَفِعِي، ارْجِعِي مِنْ حَيْثُ جِئْتِ، فَتَرْجِعُ فَتُصْبِحُ طَالِعَةً مِنْ مَطْلِعِهَا، ثُمَّ تَجْرِي لَا يَسْتَنْكِرُ النَّاسَ مِنْهَا شَيْئًا حَتَّى تَنْتَهِيَ إِلَى مُسْتَقَرِّهَا ذَاكَ تَحْتَ الْعَرْشِ، فَيُقَالُ لَهَا: ارْتَفِعِي أَصْبِحِي طَالِعَةً مِنْ مَغْرِبِكِ، فَتُصْبِحُ طَالِعَةً مِنْ مَغْرِبِهَا ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: أَتَدْرُونَ مَتَى ذَاكُمْ؟ ذَاكَ حِينَ {لَا يَنْفَعُ نَفْسًا إِيمَانُهَا لَمْ تَكُنْ آمَنَتْ مِنْ قَبْلُ أَوْ كَسَبَتْ فِي إِيمَانِهَا خَيْرًا.

The Messenger of Allah ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) one day said: Do you know where the sun goes? They replied: Allah and His Apostle know best. He (the Holy Prophet) observed: Verily it (the sun) glides till it reaches its resting place under the Throne. Then it falls prostrate and remains there until it is asked: Rise up and go to the place whence you came, and it goes back and continues emerging out from its rising place and then glides till it reaches its place of rest under the Throne and falls prostrate and remains in that state until it is asked: Rise up and return to the place whence you came, and it returns and emerges out from it rising place and the it glides (in such a normal way) that the people do not discern anything ( unusual in it) till it reaches its resting place under the Throne. Then it would be said to it: Rise up and emerge out from the place of your setting, and it will rise from the place of its setting. The Messenger of Allah ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) said. Do you know when it would happen? It would happen at the time when faith will not benefit one who has not previously believed or has derived no good from the faith.

It is narrated on the authority of Abu Dharr رضی ‌اللہ ‌عنہ ‌
