حَدَّثَنَا
يَحْيَى بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ , قَالَ : حَدَّثَنِي
ابْنُ وَهْبٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا
الثَّوْرِيُّ ، عَنْ
هِشَامٍ ، عَنْ
فَاطِمَةَ , عَنْ
أَسْمَاءَ , قَالَتْ : " دَخَلْتُ عَلَى عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا وَهِيَ تُصَلِّي قَائِمَةً وَالنَّاسُ قِيَامٌ ، فَقُلْتُ : مَا شَأْنُ النَّاسِ ، فَأَشَارَتْ بِرَأْسِهَا إِلَى السَّمَاءِ , فَقُلْتُ : آيَةٌ ، فَقَالَتْ بِرَأْسِهَا : أَيْ نَعَمْ " .
Narrated Asma': I went to `Aisha and she was standing praying and the people, too, were standing (praying). So I said, "What is the matter with the people?" She beckoned with her head towards the sky. I said, "(Is there) a sign?" She nodded intending to say, "Yes."
