ذِكْرِ الْعِشَاءِ وَالْعَتَمَةِ وَمَنْ رَآهُ وَاسِعًا

Mentioning “Isha” and “'atamah”, and whoever considered it permissible

صَلَّى لَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم لَيْلَةً صَلاَةَ الْعِشَاءِ ـ وَهْىَ الَّتِي يَدْعُو النَّاسُ الْعَتَمَةَ ـ ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ فَأَقْبَلَ عَلَيْنَا فَقَالَ " أَرَأَيْتُمْ لَيْلَتَكُمْ هَذِهِ فَإِنَّ رَأْسَ مِائَةِ سَنَةٍ مِنْهَا لاَ يَبْقَى مِمَّنْ هُوَ عَلَى ظَهْرِ الأَرْضِ أَحَدٌ ".

Translation

Ibn Umar reported: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ led us one night in the Isha prayer – which is what people call al-'atamah – then he turned away, faced us and said, “Do you see this night of yours? At the end of a hundred years from it, none of those who are on the face of the earth will remain.”

Ibn Umar berichtete: Der Gesandte Allahs ﷺ leitete uns eines Nachts im Nachtgebet – das ist das, was die Leute al-Atama nennen –, dann wandte er sich ab, kam uns zugewandt und sagte: „Was meint ihr zu dieser eurer Nacht? Hundert Jahre nach ihr wird von denen, die auf der Oberfläche der Erde sind, keiner mehr übrig sein.“

İbn Ömer (r.a.) şöyle rivayet etti: Resûlullah ﷺ bir gece bize yatsı namazını – insanların ‘atame’ dediği namazı – kıldırdı. Sonra namazdan ayrıldı, bize yöneldi ve şöyle buyurdu: “Bu gecenizi gördünüz mü? Bundan yüz yıl sonra, bugün yeryüzünde bulunanlardan hiç kimse kalmayacak.”
