Hadith 600
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، عَنْ صَالِحٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْعَاصِ، أَنَّ سَعِيدَ بْنَ الْعَاصِ أَخْبَرَهُ، أَنَّ عُثْمَانَ وَعَائِشَةَ، حَدَّثَاهُ، أَنَّ أَبَا بَكْرٍ اسْتَأْذَنَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَهُوَ مُضْطَجِعٌ عَلَى فِرَاشِ عَائِشَةَ لاَبِسًا مِرْطَ عَائِشَةَ، فَأَذِنَ لأَبِي بَكْرٍ وَهُوَ كَذَلِكَ، فَقَضَى إِلَيْهِ حَاجَتَهُ، ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ. ثُمَّ اسْتَأْذَنَ عُمَرُ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، فَأَذِنَ لَهُ وَهُوَ كَذَلِكَ، فَقَضَى إِلَيْهِ حَاجَتَهُ، ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ. قَالَ عُثْمَانُ: ثُمَّ اسْتَأْذَنْتُ عَلَيْهِ، فَجَلَسَ وَقَالَ لِعَائِشَةَ: ”اجْمَعِي إِلَيْكِ ثِيَابَكِ“، قَالَ: فَقَضَيْتُ إِلَيْهِ حَاجَتِي، ثُمَّ انْصَرَفْتُ، قَالَ: فَقَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، لَمْ أَرَكَ فَزِعْتَ لأَبِي بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا كَمَا فَزِعْتَ لِعُثْمَانَ؟ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ”إِنَّ عُثْمَانَ رَجُلٌ حَيِيٌّ، وَإِنِّي خَشِيتُ إِنْ أَذِنْتُ لَهُ، وَأَنَا عَلَى تِلْكَ الْحَالِ، أَنْ لاَ يَبْلُغَ إِلَيَّ فِي حَاجَتِهِ.“
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Uthman and Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with them both) that Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) sought permission to visit the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) while he (peace be upon him) was sitting on Sayyidah Aisha’s (may Allah be pleased with her) bed, covered with her sheet. The Prophet (peace be upon him) granted Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) permission in that very state. He fulfilled the purpose for which he had come and then left. Then Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) sought permission, and the Prophet (peace be upon him) granted him permission in the same state, so he too fulfilled his need and left. Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) says: Then I sought permission to enter, so the Prophet (peace be upon him) sat up and said to Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), “Adjust your clothes.” He (Uthman) says: I fulfilled the task I had with him and then returned. He says that Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) said: O Messenger of Allah! The way you made arrangements for Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him), you did not do so for Sayyiduna Abu Bakr and Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both)? The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: “Indeed, Uthman is extremely modest and very shy, and I feared that if I permitted him to enter in that state, he would not be able to express his need to me properly.”
