Abu al-Nadr al-Faqih informed us — Mu'adh ibn Najda al-Qurashi narrated to us — Qabisa ibn Uqba informed us — Sufyan narrated to us — from Abd Allah ibn Muhammad ibn Aqil — from al-Tufayl ibn Ubayy ibn Ka'b — from Hadrat Ubayy ibn Ka'b (may Allah be well pleased with him) who said: When a quarter of the night had passed, the Beloved Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) would say: "O people, remember the grace of Allah. O people, remember — the earthquake has come, followed by the subsequent quake. Death has come with all that it contains." Ubayy ibn Ka'b submitted: O Messenger of Allah, indeed I send abundant blessings upon you, so how much of my supplication should I devote to sending blessings upon you? He stated: "Whatever you wish."
