Al-Adab Al-Mufrad 647
Juwayriyya, the daughter of al-Harith ibn Abi Dirar, (whose name
had been Barra but the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace,
had renamed her Juwayriyya) reported that the Prophet, may Allah bless
him and grant him peace, had left her and he did not want to go back in
while her name was Barra. Then he went back to her while it was late in
the day and found that she was still sitting. "Are you still sitting?"
he asked, "After I left you I uttered four phrases three times. If they
were to be weighed against all your words, they would outweigh them. They
are:
'Glory be to Allah and by His praise in number as great as His creation
and in accordance with His own pleasure and the weight of His Throne and
the extent of His words.'"
حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيٌّ، قَالَ‏:‏ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، قَالَ‏:‏ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ مَوْلَى آلِ طَلْحَةَ قَالَ‏:‏ سَمِعْتُ كُرَيْبًا أَبَا رِشْدِينَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، عَنْ جُوَيْرِيَةَ بِنْتِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ أَبِي ضِرَارٍ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم خَرَجَ مِنْ عِنْدِهَا، وَكَانَ اسْمُهَا بَرَّةَ، فَحَوَّلَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم اسْمَهَا، فَسَمَّاهَا جُوَيْرِيَةَ، فَخَرَجَ وَكَرِهَ أَنْ يَدْخُلَ وَاسْمُهَا بَرَّةُ، ثُمَّ رَجَعَ إِلَيْهَا بَعْدَ مَا تَعَالَى النَّهَارُ، وَهِيَ فِي مَجْلِسِهَا، فَقَالَ‏:‏ مَا زِلْتِ فِي مَجْلِسِكِ‏؟‏ لَقَدْ قُلْتُ بَعْدَكِ أَرْبَعَ كَلِمَاتٍ ثَلاَثَ مَرَّاتٍ، لَوْ وُزِنَتْ بِكَلِمَاتِكِ وَزَنَتْهُنَّ‏:‏ سُبْحَانَ اللهِ وَبِحَمْدِهِ عَدَدَ خَلْقِهِ، وَرِضَا نَفْسِهِ، وَزِنَةَ عَرْشِهِ، وَمِدَادَ، أَوْ مَدَدَ، كَلِمَاتِهِ‏.‏
