Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Reciter: Chapter: The saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him):
I would not like to have gold equal to this mountain of Uhud ما يسرني أن عندي مثل أحد هذا ذهبا
Sahih al-Bukhari 6444
. Al-Hasan ibn al-Rabi' said: Abu al-Ahwas narrated to us from al-A'mash from Zayd ibn Wahb, who said: Abu Dharr said, “I was walking with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in the volcanic area of Madinah when Uhud came into view. He said:
O Abu Dharr يا أبا ذر
I said: At your service, O Messenger of Allah. He said:
I would not like to have gold equal to this mountain of Uhud, unless nothing of it, not even a single Dinar of it remains with me for more than three days, except something which I will keep for repaying debts. I would have spent all of it (distributed it) amongst Allah's Slaves like this, and like this, and like this. ما يسرني أن عندي مثل أحد هذا ذهباً تمضي علي ثالثة وعندي منه دينار إلا شيئاً أرصده لدين إلا أن أقول به في عباد الله هكذا وهكذا وهكذا
Sahih al-Bukhari 6444
to his right, to his left, and behind him. Then he walked on and said:
Those who are rich will be poor on the Day of Rising except those who say, "Such-and-such and such-and-such is for a right (which was performed)." إن الأكثرين هم المقلون يوم القيامة إلا من قال هكذا وهكذا وهكذا
Al-Adab Al-Mufrad 803
to his right, to his left, and behind him
and few are they وقليل ما هم
Then he said to me:
Stay at your place and do not leave it till I come back مكانك لا تبرح حتى آتيك
Sahih al-Bukhari 6444


The Shaykh : I come to you
The Reciter:
Don't leave your place till I come back to you لا تبرح حتى آتيك
Sahih al-Bukhari 6444


The Shaykh : What did you say in the Ajrumiyyah, even regarding the auxiliaries of the present tense verb?
The Reciter: Then he departed into the darkness of the night until he was out of sight. I heard a voice that had risen, and I feared that something had happened to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). I wanted to go to him, but I remembered his saying to me:
Don't leave your place till I come back to you لا تبرح حتى آتيك
Sahih al-Bukhari 6444
So I did not move until he came to me. I said, O Messenger of Allah: I heard a voice and I feared [something]. I mentioned it to him, and he said:
Did you hear it? وهل سمعته
I said: Yes. He said:
It was Gabriel who came to me and said, 'Whoever died without joining others in worship with Allah, will enter Paradise.' I asked (Gabriel), 'Even if he had committed theft or committed illegal sexual intercourse? Gabriel said, 'Yes, even if he had committed theft or committed illegal sexual intercourse." ذاك جبريل أتاني فقال : من مات من أمتك لا يشرك بالله شيئاً دخل الجنة قلت : وإن زنى وإن سرق قال وإن زنى وإن سرق
Sahih al-Bukhari 6444
.
The Reciter: With me
whoever dies without associating anything with Allah من مات لا يشرك بالله شيئا
Jami` at-Tirmidhi 2644Sahih (Darussalam)


The Shaykh : No, with us it is from your Ummah.
The Reciter: So I wanted to go to him, but I remembered, with us: so I remembered

The Shaykh : No, the one with us is remembered, and it is, so it is better.
