Abu Salama reported: 'We discussed amongst ourselves Lailat-ul-Qadr. I came to Abu Sa'id al-Khudri (Allah be pleased with him) who was a friend of mine and said to him: Would you not go with us to the garden of date trees? He went out with a cloak over him. I said to him: Did you hear the Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) making mention of Lailat-ul-Qadr? He said: Yes, (and added) we were observing i'tikaf with the Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) in the middle ten days of Ramadan, and came out on the morning of the twentieth and the Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) addressed us and said: I was shown Lailat-ul-Qadr, but I forgot (the exact night) or I was caused to forget it, so seek it in the last ten odd (nights), and I was shown that I was prostrating in water and clay. So he who wanted to observe i'tikaf with the Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) should return (to the place of i'tikaf). He (Abu Sa'id al-Khudri) said: And we returned and did not find any patch of cloud in the sky. Then the cloud gathered and there was (so heavy) a downpour that the roof of the mosque which was made of the branches of date-palms began to drip. Then there was prayer and I saw the Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) prostrating in water and clay till I saw the traces of clay on his forehead.
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَامِرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ، عَنْ يَحْيَى، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، قَالَ: تَذَاكَرْنَا لَيْلَةَ الْقَدْرِ، فَأَتَيْتُ أَبَا سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيَّ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ، وَكَانَ لِي صَدِيقًا، فَقُلْتُ: أَلَا تَخْرُجُ بِنَا إِلَى النَّخْلِ؟ فَخَرَجَ وَعَلَيْهِ خَمِيصَةٌ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ: سَمِعْتَ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَذْكُرُ لَيْلَةَ الْقَدْرِ؟ فَقَالَ: نَعَمْ، اعْتَكَفْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الْعَشْرَ الْوُسْطَى مِنْ رَمَضَانَ، فَخَرَجْنَا صَبِيحَةَ عِشْرِينَ، فَخَطَبَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ: «إِنِّي أُرِيتُ لَيْلَةَ الْقَدْرِ، وَإِنِّي نَسِيتُهَا - أَوْ أُنْسِيتُهَا -، فَالْتَمِسُوهَا فِي الْعَشْرِ الْأَوَاخِرِ مِنْ كُلِّ وِتْرٍ، وَإِنِّي أُرِيتُ أَنِّي أَسْجُدُ فِي مَاءٍ وَطِينٍ، فَمَنْ كَانَ اعْتَكَفَ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَلْيَرْجِعْ» قَالَ: فَرَجَعْنَا وَمَا نَرَى فِي السَّمَاءِ قَزَعَةً، قَالَ: وَجَاءَتْ سَحَابَةٌ فَمُطِرْنَا، حَتَّى سَالَ سَقْفُ الْمَسْجِدِ، وَكَانَ مِنْ جَرِيدِ النَّخْلِ، وَأُقِيمَتِ الصَّلَاةُ، فَرَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَسْجُدُ فِي الْمَاءِ وَالطِّينِ، قَالَ: حَتَّى رَأَيْتُ أَثَرَ الطِّينِ فِي جَبْهَتِهِ
  ہشا م نے یحییٰ سے اور انھوں نے ابو سلمہ سے روایت کی ، کہا : ہم نے آپس میں لیلۃالقدر کے بارے میں بات چیت کی ، پھر میں ابو خدری رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ کے پاس آیا وہ میرے دوست تھے ، میں نے کہا : کیا آپ ہمارے ساتھ نخلستان میں نہیں چلیں گے؟وہ نکلے اور ان ( کے کندھوں ) پر دھاری دار چادر تھی ، میں نے ان سے پوچھا : ( کیا ) آپ نے رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کو لیلۃ القدر کا ذکر کرتے ہو ئے سنا ، تھا ؟ انھوں نے کہا : ہاںہم نے رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کے ساتھ رمضا ن کے درمیانے عشرے میں اعتکاف کیا ہم بیسویں ( رات ) کی صبح کو ( اعتکاف سے ) نکلے تو رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے ہمیں خطبہ دیا اور فرمایا : " مجھے لیلۃ القدر دکھا ئی گئی اور اب میں بھول گیا ہوں ۔ ۔ ۔ مجھے بھلا دی گئی ہے ۔ ۔ ۔ اس لیے تم اس کو آخریعشرے کی ہر طاق رات میں تلاش کرو اور میں نے دیکھا کہ میں ( اس رات ) پانی اور مٹی میں سجدہ کر رہا ہوں ۔ تو جس نے رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کے ساتھ اعتکاف کیا ہے وہ واپس ( اعتکاف میں ) چلا جا ئے ۔ کہا : ہم واپس ہو گئے اور ہمیں آسمان میں بادل کا کو ئی ٹکڑا نظر نہیں آرہا تھا کہا : ایک بدلی آئی ہم پر بارش ہو ئی یہاں تک کہ مسجد کی چھت بہ پڑی ۔ وہ کھجور کی شا خوں سے بنی ہو ئی تھی اور نماز کھڑی کی گئی تو میں رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کو دیکھا آپ پانی اور مٹی میں سجدہ کر رہے تھے کہا : یہاں تک کہ میں نے آپ کی پیشانی پر مٹی کا نشان بھی دیکھا ۔

sahih-muslim-2774

Abu Sa'id al-Khudri (Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) observed i'tikaf in the middle ten days of Ramadan to seek Lailat-ul-Qadr before it was made manifest to him. When (these nights) were over, he commanded to strike the tent. Then it was made manifest to him that (Lailat-ul-Qadr) was in the last ten nights (of Ramadan), and commanded to pitch the tent (again). He then came to the people and said: O people, Lailat-ul-Qadr was made manifest to me and I came out to inform you about it that two persons came contending with each other and there was a devil along with them and I forgot it. So seek it in the last ten nights of Ramadan. Seek it on the ninth, on the seventh and on the fifth. I (one of the narrators) said: Abu Sa'id, you know more than us about numbers. He said: Yes, indeed we have better right than you. I said: What is this ninth, seventh, and fifth? He said: When twenty-one (nights are over) and the twenty-second begins, it is the ninth, and when twenty-three (nights) are over, that which follows (the last night) is the seventh, and when twenty-five nights are over, what follows it is fifth. Ibn Khallad said: Instead of the word Yahliqan (contending), he said Yakhtasiman, (they are disputing).

sahih-muslim-2777

Zirr b. Habaish reported: I thu asked Ubayy b. Ka'b (Allah be pleased with him): Your brother (in faith) Ibn Mas'ud says: He who stands (for the night prayer) throughout the year would find Lailat-ul-Qadr, whereupon he said: May Allah have mercy upon him; (he said these words) with the intention that people might not rely only (on one night), whereas he knew that it (Lailat-ul-Qadr) is in the month of Ramadan and it is the twenty-seventh night. He then took oath (without making any exception, i. e. without saying In sha Allah) that it was the twenty-seventh night. I said to him: Abu Mundhir, on what ground do you say that? Thereupon he said: By the indication or by the sign which the Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) gave us, and that is that on that day (the sun) would rise without having any ray in it.

Shu'ba doubted these words: That it was the night for which the Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) commanded us to stand for prayer. And (he further) said: This was narrated to me by a friend of mine from him (the Holy Prophet).
