حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ الْأَوْزَاعِيَّ يَقُولُ أَخْبَرَنِي هَارُونُ بْنُ رِئَابٍ عَنِ الْأَحْنَفِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ قَالَ دَخَلْتُ بَيْتَ الْمَقْدِسِ فَوَجَدْتُ فِيهِ رَجُلًا يُكْثِرُ السُّجُودَ فَوَجَدْتُ فِي نَفْسِي مِنْ ذَلِكَ فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفَ قُلْتُ أَتَدْرِي عَلَى شَفْعٍ انْصَرَفْتَ أَمْ عَلَى وِتْرٍ قَالَ إِنْ أَكُ لَا أَدْرِي فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ يَدْرِي ثُمَّ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي حِبِّي أَبُو الْقَاسِمِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ثُمَّ بَكَى ثُمَّ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي حِبِّي أَبُو الْقَاسِمِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ثُمَّ بَكَى ثُمَّ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي حِبِّي أَبُو الْقَاسِمِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ مَا مِنْ عَبْدٍ يَسْجُدُ لِلَّهِ سَجْدَةً إِلَّا رَفَعَهُ اللَّهُ بِهَا دَرَجَةً وَحَطَّ عَنْهُ بِهَا خَطِيئَةً وَكَتَبَ لَهُ بِهَا حَسَنَةً قَالَ قُلْتُ أَخْبِرْنِي مَنْ أَنْتَ يَرْحَمُكَ اللَّهُ قَالَ أَنَا أَبُو ذَرٍّ صَاحِبُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَتَقَاصَرَتْ إِلَيَّ نَفْسِي.

Abd al-Razzaq told us: he said: I heard al-Awza'i say: Harun ibn Ri'ab informed me, from al-Ahnaf ibn Qays, who said: I entered Jerusalem and found in it a man who was prostrating a great deal. I felt something uneasy about that within myself, and when he finished, I said: Do you know whether you finished on an even or odd number of prostrations? He said: If I do not know, then Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, knows. Then he said: My beloved Abu al-Qasim, peace and blessings be upon him, informed me - then he wept - then he said: My beloved Abu al-Qasim, peace and blessings be upon him, informed me - then he wept - then he said: My beloved Abu al-Qasim, peace and blessings be upon him, informed me that he said: "There is no servant who prostrates a single prostration to Allah, but that Allah raises him a degree thereby, removes from him a sin thereby, and records for him a good deed thereby." I said: Tell me who you are, may Allah have mercy on you. He said: I am Abu Dharr, the companion of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him. Then I felt myself shrink in humility before him.
