Chapter 13: The Virtues Of 'Aishah, The Mother Of The Believers (RA)

باب فِي فَضْلِ عَائِشَةَ رضى الله تعالى عنها ‏‏

Sahih Muslim 2443

'A'isha reported that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) during his last illness) inquired

Where I would be tomorrow, where I would be tomorrow (thinking, that the turn of 'A'isha was not very near) and when it was my turn, Allah called him to his Heavenly Home and his head was between my neck and chest.

وَحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، قَالَ وَجَدْتُ فِي كِتَابِي عَنْ أَبِي أُسَامَةَ، عَنْ هِشَامٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ إِنْ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم لَيَتَفَقَّدُ يَقُولُ ‏"‏ أَيْنَ أَنَا الْيَوْمَ أَيْنَ أَنَا غَدًا ‏"‏ ‏.‏ اسْتِبْطَاءً لِيَوْمِ عَائِشَةَ ‏.‏ قَالَتْ فَلَمَّا كَانَ يَوْمِي قَبَضَهُ اللَّهُ بَيْنَ سَحْرِي وَنَحْرِي ‏.‏
