وَعَنْ جَرِيرٍ، عَنْ لَيْثٍ، عَنْ شَهْرِ بْنِ حَوْشَبٍ قَالَ: دَخَلْتُ أَنَا وَخَالِي عَلَى عَائِشَةَ، فَقَالَ: إِنَّ أَحَدَنَا يَعْرُضُ فِي صَدْرِهِ مَا لَوْ تَكَلَّمَ بِهِ ذَهَبَتْ آخِرَتُهُ، وَلَوْ ظَهَرَ لَقُتِلَ بِهِ، قَالَ: فَكَبَّرَتْ ثَلاَثًا، ثُمَّ قَالَتْ: سُئِلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ ذَلِكَ، فَقَالَ: ”إِذَا كَانَ ذَلِكَ مِنْ أَحَدِكُمْ فَلْيُكَبِّرْ ثَلاَثًا، فَإِنَّهُ لَنْ يُحِسَّ ذَلِكَ إِلا مُؤْمِنٌ.“
It is narrated from Shahr bin Hawshab (may Allah have mercy on him) that I and my maternal uncle went to Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) and said: Thoughts come to the chest of one of us such that if he were to utter them, his Hereafter would be ruined, and if they were to become known, he would be killed. He says that upon hearing this, she said «اللہ اکبر» three times and said: This was asked of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and he (peace be upon him) said: "When such a situation arises for any of you, let him say Allahu Akbar three times. Indeed, no one feels this except a believer."
