The Sufficient (Vol 1) · Hadith 1135 (#Ḥadīth #55)

55ـ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مِهْرَانَ عَنْ عَبْدِ الْعَظِيمِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الله الْحَسَنِيِّ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَسْبَاطٍ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْحَمِيدِ عَنْ زَيْدٍ الشَّحَّامِ قَالَ قَالَ لِي أَبُو عَبْدِ الله وَنَحْنُ فِي الطَّرِيقِ فِي لَيْلَةِ الْجُمُعَةِ اقْرَأْ فَإِنَّهَا لَيْلَةُ الْجُمُعَةِ قُرْآناً فَقَرَأْتُ إِنَّ يَوْمَ الْفَصْلِ كَانَ مِيقاتُهُمْ أَجْمَعِينَ. يَوْمَ لا يُغْنِي مَوْلىً عَنْ مَوْلىً شَيْئاً وَلا هُمْ يُنْصَرُونَ. إِلا مَنْ رَحِمَ الله فَقَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الله نَحْنُ وَالله الَّذِي رَحِمَ الله وَنَحْنُ وَالله الَّذِي اسْتَثْنَى الله لَكِنَّا نُغْنِي عَنْهُمْ.

55. Ahmad ibn Mihran has narrated from ‘Abd al-‘Azim al-Hassani from Ali ibn Asbat from Ibrahim ibn ‘Abd al-Hamid from Zayd al-Shahham who has said the following “Abu ‘Abdallah said to me on the way home on Friday night, “Read from the Holy Quran. It is a Friday night. I then read, “The appointed time for all of them will be the Day of Judgment (44:40) (when wrong will be distinguished from right). On this day friends will be of no benefit to one another, nor will they receive any help (44:41) except for those to whom God grants mercy. . .” (44:42) The Imam said, “We, by Allah, are those whom He has granted mercy. We, by Allah, are the ones whom Allah has made exceptional and we will support them (our followers) sufficiently.”
