١ـ عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبَانِ بْنِ تَغْلِبَ قَالَ كُنْتُ مَعَ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) مُزَامَلَةً فِيمَا بَيْنَ مَكَّةَ وَالْمَدِينَةِ فَلَمَّا انْتَهَى إِلَى الْحَرَمِ نَزَلَ وَاغْتَسَلَ وَأَخَذَ نَعْلَيْهِ بِيَدَيْهِ ثُمَّ دَخَلَ الْحَرَمَ حَافِياً فَصَنَعْتُ مِثْلَ مَا صَنَعَ فَقَالَ يَا أَبَانُ مَنْ صَنَعَ مِثْلَ مَا رَأَيْتَنِي صَنَعْتُ تَوَاضُعاً لله مَحَا الله عَنْهُ مِائَةَ أَلْفِ سَيِّئَةٍ وَكَتَبَ لَهُ مِائَةَ أَلْفِ حَسَنَةٍ وَبَنَى الله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ لَهُ مِائَةَ أَلْفِ دَرَجَةٍ وَقَضَى لَهُ مِائَةَ أَلْفِ حَاجَةٍ.
1. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn abu ‘ Abd Allah from his father from al-Qasim ibn Ibrahim from Aban ibn Taghlib who has said the following: “I was in the presence of abu ‘Abd Allah , as journey-mate between al-Madinah and Makkah. When we arrived at the area of al-Haram (the sacred area), he dismounted, took a shower, took his shoes in his hand and then entered the Sacred area barefoot. I also did as he had done. He said to me, ‘O Aban, if one does what you see me doing to show humbleness before Allah, Allah deletes one hundred thousand of his sins and writes down for him one hundred thousand good deeds. Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Glorious, will build for him one hundred thousand degrees and makes his one hundred thousand wishes to come truth.’”
