Al-Adab Al-Mufrad 661
Sahl ibn Sa'd said, "There are two hours in which the gates of
heaven are opened. At those times very rarely is the supplication of someone
who makes supplication rejected:
when the call to prayer has been given
and when in battle ranks in the Cause of Allah."
حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ قَالَ‏:‏ حَدَّثَنِي مَالِكٌ، عَنْ أَبِي حَازِمٍ، عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ قَالَ‏:‏ سَاعَتَانِ تُفْتَحُ لَهُمَا أَبْوَابُ السَّمَاءِ، وَقَلَّ دَاعٍ تُرَدُّ عَلَيْهِ دَعْوَتُهُ‏:‏ حِينَ يَحْضُرُ النِّدَاءُ، وَالصَّفُّ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ‏.‏
