English Translation
'Abdullah ibn 'Amir appointed Kilab ibn Umayyah over al-Ubullah. 'Uthman ibn Abi al-'As passed by him and asked: "What is your affair?" He said: "I was appointed over al-Ubullah." 'Uthman said: "Shall I not inform you?" He said: "Yes." He said: "I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) say: 'Indeed, there is an hour in the night during which the gates of heaven are opened, and He says: Is there anyone asking so that I may give him? Is there anyone supplicating so that I may respond to him? Is there anyone seeking forgiveness so that I may forgive him?'"
