240 صحيح حديث أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ الأَنْصَارِيِّ، وَكَانَ تَبِعَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَخَدَمَهُ، وَصَحْبَهُ، أَنَّ أَبَا بَكْرٍ كَانَ يُصَلِّي لَهُمْ فِي وَجَعِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الَّذِي تُوُفِّيَ فِيهِ، حَتَّى إِذَا كَانَ يَوْمُ الاثْنَيْنِ وَهُمْ صُفُوفٌ فِي الصَّلاَةِ، فَكَشَفَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ سِتْرَ الْحُجْرَةِ، يَنْظُرُ إِلَيْنَا وَهُوَ قَائِمٌ كَأَنَّ وَجْهَهُ وَرَقَةُ مُصْحَفٍ، ثُمَّ تَبَسَّمَ يَضْحَكُ، فَهَمَمْنَا أَنْ نَفْتَتِنَ مِنَ الْفَرَحِ بِرُؤْيَةِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَنَكَصَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ عَلَى عَقِبَيْهِ لِيَصِلَ الصَّفَّ، وَظَنَّ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ خَارِجٌ إِلَى الصَّلاَةِ، فَأَشَارَ إِلَيْنَا النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ أَتِمُّوا صَلاَتَكمْ، وَأَرْخَى السِّتْرَ، فَتُوُفِّيَ مِنْ يَوْمِهِ
Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik Ansari, may Allah be pleased with him, who was a follower, servant, and companion of the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, narrated that during the illness of the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, which led to his death, Abu Bakr Siddiq, may Allah be pleased with him, used to lead the prayer. On Monday, when the people were standing in rows for prayer, the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, lifted the curtain of his chamber and stood looking at us. His blessed face (in beauty and radiance) was as if it were a page of the Qur'an. He smiled and began to laugh. We became so happy that we feared we might become so engrossed in looking at the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, that we would break the prayer. Sayyiduna Abu Bakr, may Allah be pleased with him, began to step back, intending to join the row, thinking that the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, was coming out to lead the prayer. But he, peace and blessings be upon him, gestured to us to complete the prayer. Then he let the curtain fall. Thus, the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, passed away on that very day. (Indeed, to Allah we belong and to Him we shall return.)
