Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ نُمَيْرٍ حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ مِغْوَلٍ عَنِ الْحَكَمِ عَنْ أَبِي عُمَرَ عَنْ أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ قَالَ نَزَلَ بِأَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ أَبُو الدَّرْدَاءِ مُقِيمٌ فَنَسْرَحَ أَمْ ظَاعِنٌ فَنَعْلِفَ قَالَ بَلْ ظَاعِنٌ قَالَ فَإِنِّي سَأُزَوِّدُكَ زَادًا لَوْ أَجِدُ مَا هُوَ أَفْضَلُ مِنْهُ لَزَوَّدْتُكَ أَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ذَهَبَ الْأَغْنِيَاءُ بِالدُّنْيَا وَالْآخِرَةِ نُصَلِّي وَيُصَلُّونَ وَنَصُومُ وَيَصُومُونَ وَيَتَصَدَّقُونَ وَلَا نَتَصَدَّقُ قَالَ أَلَا أَدُلُّكَ عَلَى شَيْءٍ إِنْ أَنْتَ فَعَلْتَهُ لَمْ يَسْبِقْكَ أَحَدٌ كَانَ قَبْلَكَ وَلَمْ يُدْرِكْكَ أَحَدٌ بَعْدَكَ إِلَّا مَنْ فَعَلَ الَّذِي تَفْعَلُ دُبُرَ كُلِّ صَلَاةٍ ثَلَاثًا وَثَلَاثِينَ تَسْبِيحَةً وَثَلَاثًا وَثَلَاثِينَ تَحْمِيدَةً وَأَرْبَعًا وَثَلَاثِينَ تَكْبِيرَةً.
English Translation
Ibn Numayr told us: Malik, meaning Ibn Mighwal, told us, from al-Hakam, from Abu Umar, from Abu al-Darda, who said: A man stayed as a guest with Abu al-Darda, and Abu al-Darda said: 'Am I staying so we let the animals graze freely, or am I traveling so we should feed them fodder?' He said: 'Rather, traveling.' He said: 'Then I will provide you with provisions - if I could find something better than it, I would provide it to you. I came to the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, and said: "O Messenger of Allah, the rich have taken this world and the hereafter - we pray and they pray, we fast and they fast, and they give charity while we cannot give charity." He said: "Shall I not direct you to something which, if you do it, no one before you would surpass you, and no one after you would reach you, except one who does the same as you do: after every prayer, say Subhan Allah thirty-three times, Alhamdulillah thirty-three times, and Allahu Akbar thirty-four times."'
