حَدَّثَنِي زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ وَأَحْمَدُ بْنُ خِرَاشٍ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الصَّمَدِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْوَارِثِ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي حُسَيْنٌ الْمُعَلِّمُ عَنْ ابْنِ بُرَيْدَةَ أَنَّ يَحْيَى بْنَ يَعْمَرَ حَدَّثَهُ أَنَّ أَبَا الْأَسْوَدِ الدِّيلِيَّ حَدَّثَهُ أَنَّ أَبَا ذَرٍّ حَدَّثَهُ قَالَ أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ نَائِمٌ عَلَيْهِ ثَوْبٌ أَبْيَضُ ثُمَّ أَتَيْتُهُ فَإِذَا هُوَ نَائِمٌ ثُمَّ أَتَيْتُهُ وَقَدْ اسْتَيْقَظَ فَجَلَسْتُ إِلَيْهِ فَقَالَ مَا مِنْ عَبْدٍ قَالَ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ ثُمَّ مَاتَ عَلَى ذَلِكَ إِلَّا دَخَلَ الْجَنَّةَ قُلْتُ وَإِنْ زَنَى وَإِنْ سَرَقَ قَالَ وَإِنْ زَنَى وَإِنْ سَرَقَ قُلْتُ وَإِنْ زَنَى وَإِنْ سَرَقَ قَالَ وَإِنْ زَنَى وَإِنْ سَرَقَ ثَلَاثًا ثُمَّ قَالَ فِي الرَّابِعَةِ عَلَى رَغْمِ أَنْفِ أَبِي ذَرٍّ قَالَ فَخَرَجَ أَبُو ذَرٍّ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ وَإِنْ رَغِمَ أَنْفُ أَبِي ذَرٍّ.

Abu Dharr said: "I came to the Prophet (s.a.w) and he was sleeping, covered with a white garment. Then I came back and he was (still) sleeping. Then I came back and he had awakened. I sat down with him and he said: 'There is no person who says La ilaha illallah and dies believing in that, but he will enter Paradise.' I said: 'Even if he commits adultery and theft?' He said : 'Even if he commits adultery and theft,' (and he said it) three times, and the fourth time he said: 'In spite of Abu Dharr."' Abu Dharr went out saying: "In spite of Abu Dharr."
