Hadith #52046
وَعَنْ جُبَيْرِ بْنِ مُطْعِمٍ قَالَ: أَتَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَعْرَابِيٌّ فَقَالَ: جَهِدَتِ الْأَنْفُسُ وَجَاعَ الْعِيَالُ وَنُهِكَتِ الْأَمْوَالُ وَهَلَكَتِ الْأَنْعَام فَاسْتَسْقِ اللَّهَ لَنَا فَإِنَّا نَسْتَشْفِعُ بِكَ عَلَى الله نستشفع بِاللَّهِ عَلَيْكَ. فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ» . فَمَا زَالَ يسبّح حَتَّى عُرف ذَلِك فِي وُجُوه أَصْحَابه ثُمَّ قَالَ: «وَيْحَكَ إِنَّهُ لَا يُسْتَشْفَعُ بِاللَّهِ عَلَى أَحَدٍ شَأْنُ اللَّهِ أَعْظَمُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ وَيْحَكَ أَتَدْرِي مَا اللَّهُ؟ إِنَّ عَرْشَهُ عَلَى سَمَاوَاتِهِ لَهَكَذَا» وَقَالَ بِأَصَابِعِهِ مَثْلَ الْقُبَّةِ عَلَيْهِ «وإِنه ليئط أطيط الرحل بالراكب» رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُد
On the authority of Jubayr bin Mutim, he said: A Bedouin came to the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, and said: The souls are exhausted, the families are hungry, and the families are exhausted. Wealth and livestock have perished, so ask God for water for us, for we seek your intercession with God. We seek God’s intercession on your behalf. Then the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, said Peace be upon him: “Glory be to God, Glory be to God.” He continued praising God until this was evident in the faces of his companions, then he said: “Woe to you, for no one can intercede with God. The matter of God is greater than that. Woe to you. Do you know what God is? Indeed, His throne is over His heavens like this.” And he said with his fingers like this: The dome is upon him, “and indeed he makes a saddlebag with a rider.” Narrated by Abu Dawud.
