Arabic (Original)
قَالَ عَبْد اللَّهِ وَجَدْتُ فِي كِتَابِ أَبِي حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ خَلَفٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَاصِمُ بْنُ بَهْدَلَةَ عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ عَنْ أُمِّ هَانِئٍ بِنْتِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ قَالَ قَالَتْ مَرَّ بِي ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي قَدْ كَبِرْتُ وَضَعُفْتُ أَوْ كَمَا قَالَتْ فَمُرْنِي بِعَمَلٍ أَعْمَلُهُ وَأَنَا جَالِسَةٌ قَالَ سَبِّحِي اللَّهَ مِائَةَ تَسْبِيحَةٍ فَإِنَّهَا تَعْدِلُ لَكِ مِائَةَ رَقَبَةٍ تُعْتِقِينَهَا مِنْ وَلَدِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ وَاحْمَدِي اللَّهَ مِائَةَ تَحْمِيدَةٍ تَعْدِلُ لَكِ مِائَةَ فَرَسٍ مُسْرَجَةٍ مُلْجَمَةٍ تَحْمِلِينَ عَلَيْهَا فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ وَكَبِّرِي اللَّهَ مِائَةَ تَكْبِيرَةٍ فَإِنَّهَا تَعْدِلُ لَكِ مِائَةَ بَدَنَةٍ مُقَلَّدَةٍ مُتَقَبَّلَةٍ وَهَلِّلِي اللَّهَ مِائَةَ تَهْلِيلَةٍ قَالَ ابْنُ خَلَفٍ أَحْسِبُهُ قَالَ تَمْلَأُ مَا بَيْنَ السَّمَاءِ وَالْأَرْضِ وَلَا يُرْفَعُ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِأَحَدٍ عَمَلٌ إِلَّا أَنْ يَأْتِيَ بِمِثْلِ مَا أَتَيْتِ بِهِ.
English Translation
Abd Allah said: I found in my father's book: Sa'id b. Sulayman told us: Musa b. Khalaf told us: Asim b. Bahdalah told us, from Abu Salih, from Umm Hani' bint Abi Talib, who said: The Messenger of God (peace and blessings be upon him) once passed by me, and I said, 'O Messenger of God, I have grown old and weak' — or as she said — 'so command me some deed I can do while sitting.' He said, 'Glorify God a hundred times with Subhan Allah, for it is equivalent for you to a hundred slaves that you free from the descendants of Isma'il; and praise God a hundred times with Alhamdulillah, equivalent for you to a hundred saddled and bridled horses that you offer in the way of God; and magnify God a hundred times with Allahu Akbar, for it is equivalent for you to a hundred sacrificial camels, garlanded and accepted; and declare God's oneness a hundred times with La ilaha illallah' — Ibn Khalaf said, I think he said — 'it fills what is between heaven and earth, and on that day no deed is raised up for anyone unless he brings the like of what you have brought.'
