وَعَنْ جَابِرٍ ، وَابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ فِي قَوْلِهِ : ( إِذَا جَاءَ نَصْرُ اللَّهِ وَالْفَتْحُ وَرَأَيْتَ النَّاسَ يَدْخُلُونَ فِي دِينِ اللَّهِ أَفْوَاجًا فَسَبِّحْ بِحَمْدِ رَبِّكَ وَاسْتَغْفِرْهُ إِنَّهُ كَانَ تَوَّابًا ) قَالَ : لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - قَالَ : " يَا جِبْرِيلُ ، نَفْسِي قَدْ نُعِيَتْ " . قَالَ جِبْرِيلُ - عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ - : الْآخِرَةُ خَيْرٌ لَكَ مِنَ الْأُولَى وَلَسَوْفَ يُعْطِيكَ رَبُّكَ فَتَرْضَى . فَأَمَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - بِلَالًا أَنْ يُنَادِيَ بِالصَّلَاةِ جَامِعَةً ، فَاجْتَمَعَ الْمُهَاجِرُونَ وَالْأَنْصَارُ إِلَى مَسْجِدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَصَلَّى بِالنَّاسِ ، ثُمَّ صَعِدَ الْمِنْبَرَ ، فَحَمِدَ اللَّهَ - عَزَّ وَجَلَّ - وَأَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ ، ثُمَّ خَطَبَ خُطْبَةً وَجِلَتْ مِنْهَا الْقُلُوبُ ، وَبَكَتْ مِنْهَا الْعُيُونُ ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : " أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ ، أَيُّ نَبِيٍّ كُنْتُ لَكَمْ ؟ " . قَالُوا : جَزَاكَ اللَّهُ مِنْ نَبِيٍّ خَيْرًا ; كُنْتَ لَنَا كَالْأَبِ الرَّحِيمِ ، وَكَالْأَخِ النَّاصِحِ الشَّفِيقِ ، أَدَّيْتَ رِسَالَاتِ اللَّهِ - عَزَّ وَجَلَّ - وَأَبْلَغْتَنَا وَحْيَهُ ، وَدَعَوْتَ إِلَى سَبِيلِ رَبِّكَ بِالْحِكْمَةِ وَالْمَوْعِظَةِ الْحَسَنَةِ ، فَجَزَاكَ اللَّهُ عَنَّا أَفْضَلَ مَا جَازَى نَبِيًّا عَنْ أُمَّتِهِ . فَقَالَ لَهُمْ : " مَعَاشِرَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ ، أُنَاشِدُكُمْ بِاللَّهِ وَبِحَقِّي عَلَيْكُمْ ، مَنْ كَانَتْ لَهُ قِبَلِي مَظْلِمَةٌ فَلْيَقُمْ فَلْيَقْتَصَّ مِنِّي " فَلَمْ يَقُمْ إِلَيْهِ أَحَدٌ ، فَنَاشَدَهُمُ الثَّانِيَةَ فَلَمْ يَقُمْ إِلَيْهِ أَحَدٌ ، فَنَاشَدَهُمُ الثَّالِثَةَ " مَعَاشِرَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ ، أَنْشُدُكُمْ بِاللَّهِ وَبِحَقِّي عَلَيْكُمْ ، مَنْ كَانَتْ لَهُ قِبَلِي مَظْلِمَةٌ فَلْيَقُمْ فَلْيَقْتَصَّ مِنِّي قَبْلَ الْقِصَاصِ فِي الْقِيَامَةِ " . فَقَامَ مِنْ بَيْنِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ شَيْخٌ كَبِيرٌ يُقَالُ لَهُ : عُكَّاشَةُ ، فَتَخَطَّى الْمُسْلِمِينَ حَتَّى وَقَفَ بَيْنَ يَدَيْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَقَالَ : فِدَاكَ أَبِي وَأُمِّي لَوْلَا أَنَّكَ نَشَدْتَنَا بِاللَّهِ مَرَّةً بَعْدَ أُخْرَى مَا كُنْتُ بِالَّذِي أَتَقَدَّمُ عَلَى شَيْءٍ مِنْ هَذَا ، كُنْتُ مَعَكَ فِي غَزَاةٍ ، فَلَمَّا فَتَحَ اللَّهُ - عَزَّ وَجَلَّ - عَلَيْنَا وَنَصَرَ نَبِيَّهُ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - وَكَانَ فِي الِانْصِرَافِ ، حَاذَتْ نَاقَتِي نَاقَتَكَ ، فَنَزَلْتُ عَنِ النَّاقَةِ ، وَدَنَوْتُ مِنْكَ لِأُقَبِّلَ فَخِذَكَ ، فَرَفَعْتَ الْقَضِيبَ فَضَرَبْتَ خَاصِرَتِي ، وَلَا أَدْرِي أَكَانَ عَمْدًا مِنْكَ أَمْ أَرَدْتَ ضَرْبَ النَّاقَةِ ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " أُعِيذُكَ بِجَلَالِ اللَّهِ أَنْ يَتَعَمَّدَكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - بِالضَّرْبِ ، يَا بِلَالُ انْطَلِقْ إِلَى بَيْتِ فَاطِمَةَ فَائْتِنِي بِالْقَضِيبِ الْمَمْشُوقِ " . فَخَرَجَ بِلَالٌ مِنَ الْمَسْجِدِ وَيَدُهُ عَلَى أُمِّ رَأْسِهِ ، وَهُوَ يُنَادِي : هَذَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - يُعْطِي الْقِصَاصَ مِنْ نَفْسِهِ . فَقَرَعَ الْبَابَ عَلَى فَاطِمَةَ ، فَقَالَ : يَا بِنْتَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - نَاوِلِينِي الْقَضِيبَ الْمَمْشُوقَ . فَقَالَتْ لَهُ فَاطِمَةُ : يَا بِلَالُ ، وَمَا يَصْنَعُ أَبِي بِالْقَضِيبِ ، وَلَيْسَ هَذَا يَوْمَ حَجٍّ وَلَا يَوْمَ غَزَاةٍ ؟ فَقَالَ : يَا فَاطِمَةُ ، مَا أَغْفَلَكِ عَمَّا فِيهِ أَبُوكِ ، رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - يُوَدِّعُ النَّاسَ وَيُفَارِقُ الدُّنْيَا ، وَيُعْطِي الْقِصَاصَ مِنْ نَفْسِهِ . فَقَالَتْ فَاطِمَةُ - رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا - : يَا بِلَالُ وَمَنْ ذَا الَّذِي تَطِيبُ نَفْسُهُ أَنْ يَقْتَصَّ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - ؟ يَا بِلَالُ ، إِذًا فَقُلْ لِلْحَسَنِ وَالْحُسَيْنِ يَقُومَانِ إِلَى هَذَا الرَّجُلِ يَقْتَصَّ مِنْهُمَا ، وَلَا يَدَعَانِهِ يَقْتَصُّ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - .
فَرَجَعَ بِلَالٌ إِلَى الْمَسْجِدِ ، وَدَفَعَ الْقَضِيبَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - وَدَفَعَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - الْقَضِيبَ إِلَى عُكَّاشَةَ . فَلَمَّا نَظَرَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرُ - رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا - إِلَى ذَلِكَ قَامَا ، وَقَالَا : يَا عُكَّاشَةُ ، هَذَا نَحْنُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْكَ فَاقْتَصَّ مِنَّا ، وَلَا تَقْتَصَّ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - . فَقَالَ لَهُمَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " امْضِ يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ ، وَأَنْتَ يَا عُمَرُ فَامْضِ ; فَقَدْ عَرَفَ اللَّهُ مَكَانَكُمَا وَمَقَامَكُمَا " . فَقَامَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ فَقَالَ : يَا عُكَّاشَةُ ، أَنَا فِي الْحَيَاةِ بَيْنَ يَدَيْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - وَلَا تَطِيبُ نَفْسِي أَنْ تَضْرِبَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَهَذَا ظَهْرِي وَبَطْنِي فَاقْتَصَّ مِنِّي بِيَدِكَ ، وَاجْلِدْنِي مِائَةً ، وَلَا تَقْتَصَّ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - . فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " يَا عَلِيُّ ، اقْعُدْ ; فَقَدْ عَرَفَ اللَّهُ لَكَ مَقَامَكَ وَنِيَّتَكَ " . وَقَامَ الْحَسَنُ وَالْحُسَيْنُ - رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا - فَقَالَا : يَا عُكَّاشَةُ ، أَلَيْسَ تَعْلَمُ أَنَّا سِبْطَا رَسُولِ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - وَالْقِصَاصُ مِنَّا كَالْقِصَاصِ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - ؟ فَقَالَ لَهُمَا النَّبِيُّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " اقْعُدَا يَا قُرَّةَ عَيْنِي ، لَا نَسِيَ اللَّهُ لَكَمَا هَذَا الْمَقَامَ " . ثُمَّ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " يَا عُكَّاشَةُ ، اضْرِبْ إِنْ كُنْتَ ضَارِبًا " . قَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، ضَرَبْتَنِي وَأَنَا حَاسِرٌ عَنْ بَطْنِي . فَكَشَفَ عَنْ بَطْنِهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - وَصَاحَ الْمُسْلِمُونَ بِالْبُكَاءِ ، وَقَالُوا : أَتُرَى عُكَّاشَةُ ضَارِبٌ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - ؟ فَلَمَّا نَظَرَ عُكَّاشَةُ إِلَى بَيَاضِ بَطْنِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - كَأَنَّهُ الْقَبَاطِيُّ لَمْ يَمْلِكْ أَنْ أَكَبَّ عَلَيْهِ ، فَقَبَّلَ بَطْنَهُ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ : فَدَاكَ أَبِي وَأُمِّي ، وَمَنْ تَطِيبُ نَفْسُهُ أَنْ يَقْتَصَّ مِنْكَ ؟ فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " إِمَّا أَنْ تَضْرِبَ ، وَإِمَّا أَنْ تَعْفُوَ " . قَالَ : قَدْ عَفَوْتُ عَنْكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، رَجَاءَ أَنْ يَعْفُوَ اللَّهُ عَنِّي فِي يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ . فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " مَنْ سَرَّهُ أَنْ يَنْظُرَ إِلَى رَفِيقِي فِي الْجَنَّةِ فَلْيَنْظُرْ إِلَى هَذَا الشَّيْخِ " . فَقَامَ الْمُسْلِمُونَ ، فَجَعَلُوا يُقَبِّلُونَ مَا بَيْنَ عَيْنَيْ عُكَّاشَةَ ، وَيَقُولُونَ : طُوبَاكَ ! طُوبَاكَ ; نِلْتَ دَرَجَاتِ الْعُلَا ، وَمُرَافَقَةَ النَّبِيِّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - . فَمَرِضَ النَّبِيُّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - مِنْ يَوْمِهِ ، فَكَانَ مَرَضُهُ ثَمَانِيَةَ عَشَرَ يَوْمًا يَعُودُهُ النَّاسُ ، وَكَانَ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - وُلِدَ يَوْمَ الِاثْنَيْنِ ، وَبُعِثَ يَوْمَ الِاثْنَيْنِ ، وَتُوُفِّيَ يَوْمَ الِاثْنَيْنِ . فَلَمَّا كَانَ يَوْمُ الْأَحَدِ ثَقُلَ فِي مَرَضِهِ ، فَأَذَّنَ بِلَالٌ بِالْأَذَانِ ، ثُمَّ وَقَفَ بِالْبَابِ فَنَادَى : السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، وَرَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ أُقِيمُ الصَّلَاةَ ؟ . فَسَمِعَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - صَوْتَ بِلَالٍ ، فَقَالَتْ فَاطِمَةُ : يَا بِلَالُ ، إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - الْيَوْمَ مَشْغُولٌ بِنَفْسِهِ . فَدَخَلَ بِلَالٌ الْمَسْجِدَ ، فَلَمَّا أَسْفَرَ الصُّبْحُ قَالَ : وَاللَّهِ لَا أُقِيمُهَا ، أَوْ أَسْتَأْذِنُ سَيِّدِي رَسُولَ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - . فَخَرَجَ بِلَالٌ ، فَقَامَ بِالْبَابِ وَنَادَى : السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَرَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ وَبَرَكَاتُهُ ، الصَّلَاةُ يَرْحَمُكَ اللَّهُ . فَسَمِعَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - صَوْتَ بِلَالٍ فَقَالَ : " ادْخُلْ يَا بِلَالُ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - الْيَوْمَ مَشْغُولٌ بِنَفْسِهِ ، مُرْ أَبَا بَكْرٍ يُصَلِّي بِالنَّاسِ " . فَخَرَجَ وَيَدُهُ عَلَى أُمِّ رَأْسِهِ ، وَهُوَ يَقُولُ : وَاغَوْثَاهُ بِاللَّهِ ! وَانْقِطَاعَ رَجَاهُ ، وَانْقِصَامَ ظَهَرَاهُ ، لَيْتَنِي لَمْ تَلِدْنِي أُمِّي ، وَإِذْ وَلَدَتْنِي لَمْ أَشْهَدْ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - هَذَا الْيَوْمَ . ثُمَّ قَالَ : يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ ، أَلَا إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - أَمَرَكَ أَنْ تُصَلِيَ بِالنَّاسِ . فَتَقَدَّمَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ فَصَلَّى بِالنَّاسِ ، وَكَانَ رَجُلًا رَقِيقًا ، فَلَمَّا رَأَى خُلُوَّ الْمَكَانِ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - لَمْ يَتَمَالَكْ أَنْ خَرَّ مَغْشِيًّا عَلَيْهِ ، وَصَاحَ الْمُسْلِمُونَ بِالْبُكَاءِ ، فَسَمِعَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - ضَجِيجَ النَّاسِ ، فَقَالَ : " مَا هَذِهِ الضَّجَّةُ ؟ " . قَالُوا : ضَجِيجُ الْمُسْلِمِينَ ; لِفَقْدِكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، . فَدَعَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - عَلِيَّ بْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ وَابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ فَاتَّكَأَ عَلَيْهِمَا ، فَخَرَجَ إِلَى الْمَسْجِدِ ، فَصَلَّى بِالنَّاسِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ خَفِيفَتَيْنِ ، ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ عَلَيْهِمْ بِوَجْهِهِ الْمَلِيحِ فَقَالَ : " يَا مَعْشَرَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ ، أَسَتُودِعُكُمُ اللَّهَ ، أَنْتُمْ فِي رَجَاءِ اللَّهِ وَأَمَانَةِ اللَّهِ ، وَاللَّهُ خَلِيفَتِي عَلَيْكُمْ . مَعَاشِرَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ ، عَلَيْكُمْ بِاتِّقَاءِ اللَّهِ ، وَحِفْظِ طَاعَتِهِ مِنْ بَعْدِي ; فَإِنِّي مُفَارِقُ الدُّنْيَا . هَذَا أَوَّلُ يَوْمٍ مِنْ أَيَّامِ الْآخِرَةِ ، وَآخَرُ يَوْمٍ مِنَ أَيَّامِ الدُّنْيَا " .
فَلَمَّا كَانَ يَوْمُ الِاثْنَيْنِ اشْتَدَّ بِهِ الْأَمْرُ ، وَأَوْحَى اللَّهُ - عَزَّ وَجَلَّ - إِلَى مَلَكِ الْمَوْتِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - أَنِ اهْبِطْ إِلَى حَبِيبِي وَصَفِيِّي مُحَمَّدٍ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فِي أَحْسَنِ صُورَةٍ ، وَارْفُقْ بِهِ فِي قَبْضِ رُوحِهِ . فَهَبَطَ مَلَكُ الْمَوْتِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَوَقَفَ بِالْبَابِ شِبْهَ أَعْرَابِيٍّ ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ يَا أَهْلَ بَيْتِ النُّبُوَّةِ ، وَمَعْدِنَ الرِّسَالَةِ ، وَمُخْتَلِفَ الْمَلَائِكَةِ ، أَدْخُلُ ؟ " . فَقَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ لِفَاطِمَةَ : أَجِيبِي الرَّجُلَ . فَقَالَتْ فَاطِمَةُ : آجَرَكَ اللَّهُ فِي مَمْشَاكَ يَا عَبْدَ اللَّهِ ، إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَشْغُولٌ بِنَفْسِهِ . فَنَادَى الثَّانِيَةَ ، فَقَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ : يَا فَاطِمَةُ أَجِيبِي الرَّجُلَ . فَقَالَتْ فَاطِمَةُ : آجَرَكَ اللَّهُ فِي مَمْشَاكَ يَا عَبْدَ اللَّهِ ، إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - مَشْغُولٌ بِنَفْسِهِ . ثُمَّ نَادَى الثَّالِثَةَ : السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ يَا أَهْلَ بَيْتِ النُّبُوَّةِ ، وَمَعْدِنَ الرِّسَالَةِ ، وَمُخْتَلَفَ الْمَلَائِكَةِ ، أَدْخُلُ ؟ فَلَا بُدَّ مِنَ الدُّخُولِ . فَسَمِعَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - صَوْتَ مَلَكِ الْمَوْتِ فَقَالَ : " يَا فَاطِمَةُ مَنْ بِالْبَابِ " . فَقَالَتْ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، إِنَّ رَجُلًا بِالْبَابِ يَسْتَأْذِنُ فِي الدُّخُولِ ، فَأَجَبْنَاهُ مَرَّةً بَعْدَ أُخْرَى ، فَنَادَى فِي الثَّالِثَةِ صَوْتًا اقْشَعَرَّ مِنْهُ جِلْدِي ، وَارْتَعَدَتْ مِنْهُ فَرَائِصِي . فَقَالَ لَهَا النَّبِيُّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " يَا فَاطِمَةُ أَتَدْرِينَ مَنْ بِالْبَابِ ؟ هَذَا هَادِمُ اللَّذَّاتِ ، وَمُفَرِّقُ الْجَمَاعَاتِ ، هَذَا مُرَمِّلُ الْأَزْوَاجِ ، وَمُوتِمُ الْأَوْلَادِ ، وَهَذَا مُخَرِّبُ الدُّورِ ، وَعَامِرُ الْقُبُورِ ، هَذَا مَلَكُ الْمَوْتِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - . ادْخُلْ يَرْحَمُكَ اللَّهُ يَا مَلَكَ الْمَوْتِ " . فَدَخَلَ مَلَكُ الْمَوْتِ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " جِئْتَنِي زَائِرًا أَمْ قَابِضًا ؟ " . قَالَ : جِئْتُكَ زَائِرًا وَقَابِضًا ، وَأَمَرَنِي اللَّهُ - عَزَّ وَجَلَّ - أَلَّا أَدْخُلَ عَلَيْكَ إِلَّا بِإِذْنِكَ ، وَلَا أَقْبِضَ رُوحَكَ إِلَّا بِإِذْنِكَ ، فَإِنْ أَذِنْتَ ، وَإِلَّا رَجَعْتُ إِلَى رَبِّي - عَزَّ وَجَلَّ - . فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " يَا مَلَكَ الْمَوْتِ ، أَيْنَ خَلَّفْتَ حَبِيبِي جِبْرِيلَ ؟ " . قَالَ : خَلَّفْتُهُ فِي سَمَاءِ الدُّنْيَا ، وَالْمَلَائِكَةُ يُعَزُّونَهُ فِيكَ . فَمَا كَانَ بِأَسْرَعَ أَنْ أَتَاهُ جِبْرِيلُ - عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ - فَقَعَدَ عِنْدَ رَأْسِهِ . فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " هَذَا الرَّحِيلُ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا فَبَشِّرْنِي مَا لِي عِنْدَ اللَّهِ ؟ " . قَالَ : أُبَشِّرُكَ يَا حَبِيبَ اللَّهِ أَنِّي تَرَكْتُ أَبْوَابَ السَّمَاءِ قَدْ فُتِحَتْ ، وَالْمَلَائِكَةُ قَدْ قَامُوا صُفُوفًا صُفُوفًا بِالتَّحِيَّةِ ، وَالرَّيْحَانِ يُحَيُّونَ رُوحَكَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ . قَالَ : " لِوَجْهِ رَبِّي الْحَمْدُ ، فَبَشِّرْنِي يَا جِبْرِيلُ " . قَالَ : أُبَشِّرُكَ أَنَّ أَبْوَابَ الْجِنَانِ قَدْ فُتِحَتْ ، وَأَنْهَارُهَا قَدِ اطَّرَدَتْ ، وَأَشْجَارُهَا قَدْ تَدَلَّتْ ، وَحُورُهَا قَدْ تَزَيَّنَتْ ; لِقُدُومِ رُوحِكَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ . قَالَ : " لِوَجْهِ رَبِّي الْحَمْدُ ، فَبَشِّرْنِي يَا جِبْرِيلُ " . قَالَ : أَنْتَ أَوَّلُ شَافِعٍ ، وَأَوَّلُ مُشَفَّعٍ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ . قَالَ : لِوَجْهِ رَبِّي الْحَمْدُ " . قَالَ جِبْرِيلُ : يَا حَبِيبِي عَمَّ تَسْأَلُنِي ؟ قَالَ : " أَسْأَلُكَ عَنْ غَمِّي وَهَمِّي ، مَنْ لِقُرَّاءِ الْقُرْآنِ مِنْ بَعْدِي ؟ مَنْ لِصُوَّامِ شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ مِنْ بَعْدِي ؟ مَنْ لِحُجَّاجِ بَيْتِ اللَّهِ الْحَرَامِ مِنْ بَعْدِي ؟ مَنْ لِأُمَّتِي الْمُصْطَفَاةِ مِنْ بَعْدِي ؟ " . قَالَ : أَبْشِرْ يَا حَبِيبَ اللَّهِ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ - عَزَّ وَجَلَّ - يَقُولُ : قَدْ حُرِّمَتِ الْجَنَّةُ عَلَى جَمِيعِ الْأَنْبِيَاءِ وَالْأُمَمِ حَتَّى تَدْخُلَهَا أَنْتَ وَأُمَّتُكَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ . قَالَ : " الْآنَ طَابَتْ نَفْسِي ، ادْنُ يَا مَلَكَ الْمَوْتِ ، فَانْتَهِ إِلَى مَا أُمِرْتَ بِهِ " .
قَالَ عَلِيٌّ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، إِذَا أَنْتَ قُبِضْتَ فَمَنْ يُغَسِّلُكَ ؟ وَفِيمَ نُكَفِّنُكَ ؟ وَمَنْ يُصَلِّي عَلَيْكَ ؟ وَمَنْ يُدْخِلُكَ الْقَبْرَ ؟ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " يَا عَلِيُّ ، أَمَّا الْغُسْلُ فَاغْسِلْنِي أَنْتَ ، وَالْفَضْلُ بْنُ عَبَّاسٍ يَصُبُّ عَلَيْكَ الْمَاءَ ، وَجِبْرِيلُ - عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ - ثَالِثُكُمَا ، فَإِذَا أَنْتُمْ فَرَغْتُمْ مِنْ غُسْلِي فَكَفِّنِي فِي ثَلَاثَةِ أَثْوَابٍ جُدُدٍ ، وَجِبْرِيلُ - عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ - يَأْتِينِي بِحَنُوطٍ مِنَ الْجَنَّةِ ، فَإِذَا أَنْتُمْ وَضَعْتُمُونِي عَلَى السَّرِيرِ فَضَعُونِي فِي الْمَسْجِدِ وَاخْرُجُوا ، فَإِنَّ أَوَّلَ مَنْ يُصَلِّي عَلَيَّ الرَّبُّ - عَزَّ وَجَلَّ - مِنْ فَوْقِ عَرْشِهِ ، ثُمَّ جِبْرِيلُ - عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ - ثُمَّ مِيكَائِيلُ ، ثُمَّ إِسْرَافِيلُ - - عَلَيْهِمَا السَّلَامُ - - ثُمَّ الْمَلَائِكَةُ زُمَرًا زُمَرًا ، ثُمَّ ادْخُلُوا فَقُومُوا صُفُوفًا لَا يَتَقَدَّمُ عَلَيَّ أَحَدٌ " .
فَقَالَتْ فَاطِمَةُ : الْيَوْمَ الْفِرَاقُ ، فَمَتَى أَلْقَاكَ ؟ قَالَ : " يَا بُنَيَّةُ ، تَلْقَيْنِي يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ عِنْدَ الْحَوْضِ ، وَأَنَا أَسْقِي مَنْ يَرِدُ عَلَيَّ الْحَوْضَ مِنْ أُمَّتِي " . قَالَتْ : فَإِنْ لَمْ أَلْقَكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ؟ قَالَ : " تَلْقَيْنِي عِنْدَ الْمِيزَانِ وَأَنَا أَشْفَعُ لِأُمَّتِي " قَالَتْ : فَإِنْ لَمْ أَلْقَكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ؟ قَالَ : " تَلْقَيْنِي عِنْدَ الصِّرَاطِ وَأَنَا أُنَادِي : رَبِّ سَلِّمْ أُمَّتِي مِنَ النَّارِ " . فَدَنَا مَلَكُ الْمَوْتِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - يُعَالِجُ قَبْضَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَلَمَّا بَلَغَ الرُّوحُ الرُّكْبَتَيْنِ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " أَوْهِ " . فَلَمَّا بَلَغَ الرُّوحُ السُّرَّةَ نَادَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " وَاكَرْبَاهُ " . فَقَالَتْ فَاطِمَةُ : كَرْبِي لِكَرْبِكَ يَا أَبَتَاهُ . فَلَمَّا بَلَغَ الرُّوحُ الثَّنْدُؤَةَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " يَا جِبْرِيلُ ، مَا أَشَدَّ مَرَارَةَ الْمَوْتِ " . فَوَلَّى جِبْرِيلُ - عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ - وَجْهَهُ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " يَا جِبْرِيلُ ، كَرِهْتَ النَّظَرَ إِلَيَّ ؟ " . فَقَالَ جِبْرِيلُ - عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ - : يَا حَبِيبِي ، وَمَنْ تُطِيقُ نَفْسُهُ أَنْ يَنْظُرَ إِلَيْكَ وَأَنْتَ تُعَالِجُ سَكَرَاتِ الْمَوْتِ ؟ فَقُبِضَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَغَسَّلَهُ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ، وَابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ يَصُبُّ عَلَيْهِ الْمَاءَ ، وَجِبْرِيلُ - عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ - مَعَهُمَا ، فَكُفِّنَ بِثَلَاثَةِ أَثْوَابٍ جُدُدٍ ، وَحُمِلَ عَلَى سَرِيرٍ ، ثُمَّ أَدْخَلُوهُ الْمَسْجِدَ وَوَضَعُوهُ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ ، وَخَرَجَ النَّاسُ مِنْهُ . فَأَوَّلُ مَنْ صَلَّى عَلَيْهِ الرَّبُّ - تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى - مِنْ فَوْقِ عَرْشِهِ ، ثُمَّ جِبْرِيلُ ، ثُمَّ مِيكَائِيلُ ، ثُمَّ إِسْرَافِيلُ ، ثُمَّ الْمَلَائِكَةُ زُمَرًا زُمَرًا . قَالَ عَلِيٌّ : لَقَدْ سَمِعْنَا فِي الْمَسْجِدِ هَمْهَمَةً وَلَمْ نَرَ لَهُمْ شَخْصًا ; فَسَمِعْنَا هَاتِفًا يَهْتِفُ وَيَقُولُ : ادْخُلُوا رَحِمَكُمُ اللَّهُ ، فَصَلُّوا عَلَى نَبِيِّكُمْ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَدَخَلْنَا ، وَقُمْنَا صُفُوفًا صُفُوفًا كَمَا أَمَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَكَبَّرْنَا بِتَكْبِيرِ جِبْرِيلَ - عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ - وَصَلَّيْنَا عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِصَلَاةِ جِبْرِيلَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ ، مَا تَقَدَّمَ مِنَّا أَحَدٌ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - وَدَخَلَ الْقَبْرَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ الصِّدِّيقُ ، وَعَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ، وَابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ ، وَدُفِنَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - . فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفَ النَّاسُ قَالَتْ فَاطِمَةُ لِعَلِيٍّ : يَا أَبَا الْحَسَنِ : دَفَنْتُمْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ؟ قَالَ : نَعَمْ . قَالَتْ فَاطِمَةُ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا : كَيْفَ طَابَتْ أَنْفُسُكُمُ أَنْ تَحْثُوا التُّرَابَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - ؟ أَمَا كَانَ فِي صُدُورِكُمْ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - الرَّحْمَةُ ؟ أَمَا كَانَ مُعَلِّمَ الْخَيْرِ ؟ قَالَ : بَلَى يَا فَاطِمَةُ ، وَلَكِنْ أَمْرُ اللَّهِ الَّذِي لَا مَرَدَّ لَهُ . فَجَعَلَتْ تَبْكِي وَتَنْدُبُ ، وَتَقُولُ : يَا أَبَتَاهُ ، الْآنَ انْقَطَعَ جِبْرِيلُ - عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ - وَكَانَ جِبْرِيلُ يَأْتِينَا بِالْوَحْيِ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ .

Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) and Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrate concerning this statement of Allah Almighty (Allah Almighty says): "When the help of Allah Almighty and the victory come, and you see the people entering the religion of Allah in crowds, then glorify the praise of your Lord and seek His forgiveness; indeed, He is ever accepting of repentance." The narrator says: When this surah was revealed to Sayyiduna Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), he said: "O Jibril, this is notice of my passing." Sayyiduna Jibril said: "The Hereafter is better for you than the first (life), and your Lord will soon give you so much that you will be pleased." Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered Sayyiduna Bilal (may Allah be pleased with him) to announce that the people should gather, so the Muhajirun and the Ansar gathered in the mosque of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) led the people in prayer, then he climbed the pulpit. After praising and extolling Allah Almighty, he delivered a sermon by which hearts trembled and eyes wept. Then he said: "O people, what kind of prophet have I been to you?" The people said: "O Messenger of Allah, may Allah Almighty reward you well as a prophet for the prophet you have been to us; like a kind father, and like a tender, sincere brother. You conveyed the message of Allah Almighty, delivered His revelation to us, and called to the path of your Lord with wisdom and good admonition. So may Allah Almighty grant you on our behalf the best reward He has ever granted any prophet on behalf of his Ummah." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to them: "O assembly of Muslims, I adjure you by Allah, and by the right I have over you: whoever has suffered any wrong from me, let him stand and take his retaliation." But no one stood before him. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) adjured them a second time, and no one stood before him. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) adjured them a third time, saying: "O assembly of Muslims, I adjure you by Allah and by my right over you: whoever has suffered any wrong from me, let him stand and take his retaliation from me, before retaliation has to be given on the Day of Resurrection." The narrator says: Then from among the Muslims an aged old man stood up, whose name was Ukkashah. He came stepping over the necks of the Muslims until he stood before the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and he said: "May my father and mother be sacrificed for you! Had you not adjured us by Allah more than once, I would not have come forward about this. I was with you in a battle. When Allah Almighty granted us victory and helped His Prophet, and we were returning, my she-camel came alongside your she-camel. I dismounted from my she-camel and came forward to kiss your thigh, but you raised the stick and struck it on my side. I do not know whether that was deliberate on your part, or whether you meant to strike the she-camel." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I seek refuge for you in the majesty of Allah from the Messenger of Allah having struck you deliberately. O Bilal, go to Fatimah's house and bring from there the stick that has been stripped (of its leaves)." Sayyiduna Bilal (may Allah be pleased with him) passed out of the mosque with his hand on his head, calling out loudly: "This is the Messenger of Allah giving retaliation against himself!" He knocked on the door of Sayyidah Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her) and said: "O daughter of the Messenger of Allah, hand me the stick that has been stripped (of its leaves)." Sayyidah Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her) said to him: "O Bilal, what does my father want with the stick, when this is neither an occasion of Hajj nor an occasion of battle?" Sayyiduna Bilal (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "O Sayyidah Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her), you do not know the situation your father is in! The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) is bidding farewell to the people and is about to depart from this world, and he is giving retaliation against himself." Sayyidah Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: "O Bilal, who is the person who would want to please himself by taking retaliation from the Messenger of Allah? O Bilal, in that case tell Hasan and Husayn to stand before this man and give him retaliation, and not let him take retaliation from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)." The narrator says: He returned to the mosque and handed the stick to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) gave the stick to Sayyiduna Ukkashah (may Allah be pleased with him). When Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) and Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) saw this, they both stood up and said: "O Ukkashah, we are here before you; take your retaliation from us, but do not take retaliation from the Messenger of Allah." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to them both: "O Abu Bakr, sit down; O Umar, you too sit down. Allah Almighty knows your station and your standing." Then Sayyiduna Ali bin Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) stood up and said: "O Ukkashah, I am alive before the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him); I will not be content that you strike the Messenger of Allah. Here are my back and my belly; take retaliation from me, strike me a hundred lashes if you like, but do not take retaliation from the Messenger of Allah." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Ali, sit down; Allah Almighty knows your station and your intention." Then Sayyiduna Imam Hasan (may Allah be pleased with him) and Sayyiduna Imam Husayn (may Allah be pleased with him) stood up and said: "O Ukkashah, do you not know that we are the grandsons of the Messenger of Allah, and that taking retaliation from us is like taking retaliation from the Messenger of Allah?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to them both: "Sit down, both of you; you are both the coolness of my eyes. Allah Almighty will not forget this standing of yours." Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Ukkashah, strike, if you are going to strike." He said: "O Messenger of Allah, when you struck me, there was no cloth over my belly." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) removed the cloth from his belly. The Muslims cried out weeping, and the people said: "Will Ukkashah really strike the Messenger of Allah?" When Sayyiduna Ukkashah (may Allah be pleased with him) saw the whiteness of the belly of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), gleaming like fine white linen, he bent down and kissed the belly of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), saying: "May my father and mother be sacrificed for you! Who could be pleased to take retaliation from you?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to him: "Either strike, or forgive." He said: "O Messenger of Allah, I forgive you, in the hope that Allah Almighty will forgive me on the Day of Resurrection." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever wishes to see my companion in Paradise, let him look at this old man." The Muslims stood up and began kissing Sayyiduna Ukkashah (may Allah be pleased with him) between his eyes, saying: "Glad tidings to you! Glad tidings to you! You have attained the lofty ranks and you will have the companionship of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)." The narrator says: That same day the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) fell ill. His illness lasted eighteen days, during which people kept coming to visit him. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was born on a Monday, was sent (as a prophet) on a Monday, and passed away on a Monday. (Before that,) when Sunday came, his illness grew worse. Sayyiduna Bilal (may Allah be pleased with him) gave the adhan, then he came and stood at the door and called out loudly: "O Messenger of Allah, peace be upon you and the mercy of Allah Almighty; shall I call the iqamah for the prayer?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) heard the voice of Sayyiduna Bilal (may Allah be pleased with him). Sayyidah Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: "O Bilal, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) is not well." Sayyiduna Bilal (may Allah be pleased with him) went into the mosque. When the morning began to brighten, he said: "By Allah, I will not call the iqamah until I take permission from the Messenger of Allah." Sayyiduna Bilal (may Allah be pleased with him) went out, came and stood by the door, and called out loudly: "O Messenger of Allah, peace be upon you, and the blessings and mercy of Allah Almighty; it is time for the prayer, may Allah Almighty have mercy on you." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) heard the voice of Sayyiduna Bilal (may Allah be pleased with him) and said: "O Bilal, come in. Today the Messenger of Allah is very unwell; tell Abu Bakr to lead the people in prayer." Sayyiduna Bilal (may Allah be pleased with him) came out with his hand placed on his head, saying: "Help can be sought only from Allah! Hope has been cut off, and the back has been broken! If only my mother had never given birth to me, and if she did give birth to me, if only I had not lived to see this day of the Messenger of Allah!" Then he said: "O Sayyiduna Abu Bakr, the Messenger of Allah Almighty (peace and blessings be upon him) has ordered you to lead the people in prayer." Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) came forward and began to lead the people in prayer. He was a soft-hearted man, and when he saw that the place of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was empty, he could not control himself and fell down unconscious. The Muslims cried out weeping. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) heard their clamour and said: "What is this clamour about?" The people said: "O Messenger of Allah, (this clamour) is because of your absence, from the weeping of the Muslims." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) called Sayyiduna Ali bin Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) and the son of Sayyiduna Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him), leaned on the two of them and went to the mosque. He led the people in short rak'ahs, then he turned to them with his kind face and said: "O assembly of Muslims, I entrust you to Allah. You are in the grace of Allah and His protection, and after me Allah Almighty is your guardian. O assembly of Muslims, it is binding upon you to keep fearing Allah Almighty and to obey Him steadfastly after me, for I am about to depart from this world. This is the first day of the days of the Hereafter, and the last day of the days of this world." The narrator says: When Monday came, his condition grew worse. Allah Almighty revealed to the Angel of Death: "Descend to My beloved, My chosen servant Sayyiduna Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him); go to him in the most beautiful form and take his soul with the utmost gentleness." The narrator says: The Angel of Death descended and came and stood at the door in the form of a Bedouin, and then said: "Peace be upon you, O members of the household of prophethood, O people of the mine of the message, to whom the angels keep coming and going! May I come in?" Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) said to Sayyidah Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her): "Answer this man." Sayyidah Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: "May Allah Almighty reward you for your coming, O servant of Allah; the Messenger of Allah is not well." He called out a second time, and Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: "O Fatimah, answer this man." Sayyidah Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: "O servant of Allah, may Allah Almighty reward you for your coming; the Messenger of Allah is unwell." Then a third time he called out loudly: "O people of the house of prophethood, O people of the mine of the message, to whom the angels keep coming and going! May I come in? For entering is necessary." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) heard the voice of the Angel of Death and said: "O Fatimah, who is at the door?" She said: "O Messenger of Allah, there is a man at the door asking permission to come in. I have answered him once and then again, and the third time he called out with such a voice that my skin has shivered and my limbs are trembling." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to her: "O Fatimah, do you know who is at the door? This is the destroyer of pleasures, the separator of those who meet, the one who makes wives widows and children orphans, who ruins dwellings and populates graveyards. This is the Angel of Death. O Angel of Death, may Allah Almighty have mercy on you, come in!" The narrator says: The Angel of Death came in to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Angel of Death, have you come to me to visit, or to take my soul?" He said: "I have come to you both to visit and to take your soul. Allah Almighty commanded me not to come in to you without permission, and not to take your soul without your permission. If you give permission, well and good; otherwise I will return to my Lord." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Angel of Death, where did you leave my friend Jibril?" He said: "I left him in the lowest heaven, and the angels are offering him condolences concerning you." Then at once Sayyiduna Jibril (peace be upon him) came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and sat by his head. He said: "This is the time of departure from this world, so give me glad tidings: what is there for me with Allah Almighty?" He said: "O beloved of Allah, I give you the glad tidings that I have left the gates of heaven opened, and the angels are standing in ranks, standing in ranks to offer greetings, and standing with fragrance with which, O Sayyiduna Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), they will welcome your soul." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Praise belongs to the Countenance of my Lord. O Jibril, give me glad tidings." He said: "I give you the glad tidings that the gates of Paradise have been opened, its rivers and its trees are stirring, and its houris have adorned themselves, because your soul, O Sayyiduna Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), is about to arrive." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Praise belongs to the Countenance of my Lord. O Jibril, give me glad tidings." Sayyiduna Jibril (peace be upon him) said: "On the Day of Resurrection you will be the first to intercede and the first whose intercession is accepted." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Praise belongs to my Lord." Sayyiduna Jibril (peace be upon him) said: "O my beloved, what is it you wish to ask about?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I wish to ask you about my worry and my concern: what will there be for those versed in the Qur'an after me? What will there be for those who fast in Ramadan after me? What will there be for those who perform Hajj to the House of Allah after me? And what will there be for my chosen Ummah after me?" Sayyiduna Jibril (peace be upon him) said: "O beloved of Allah, receive the glad tidings that Allah Almighty says: 'I have made Paradise forbidden to all the prophets and their nations until you, O Sayyiduna Muhammad, and your Ummah enter it.'" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Now my heart is content. O Angel of Death, come near and do what you have been commanded to do." Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "O Messenger of Allah, when you pass away, who will wash you? In what shall we shroud you? Who will lead your funeral prayer? And who will lower you into the grave?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Ali, as for the washing, you are to wash me, Fadl bin Abbas will pour water for you, and Jibril will be the third with you. When you have finished washing me, shroud me in three new garments, and Jibril will bring me hanut (embalming perfume) from Paradise. When you have placed me on the bier, place me in the mosque and go outside. First of all my Lord will send mercy upon me from above His Throne; then Jibril, then Mika'il, then Israfil will pray for mercy; then the angels will come in groups. Then you are to enter and stand in rows, and let no one step forward (ahead of me)." Sayyidah Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: "Today is the day of parting; so when will I meet you?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Meet me on the Day of Resurrection at the Pool, where I will be giving drink to those of my Ummah who come to the Pool." She said: "O Messenger of Allah, what if I cannot meet you there?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Then meet me at the Scale (al-Mizan), where I will be interceding for my Ummah." She said: "O Messenger of Allah, what if I cannot meet you there?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Meet me at the Bridge (al-Sirat), where I will be calling out: 'O my Lord, save my Ummah from Hell!'" Then the Angel of Death came near and began to take the soul of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). When his soul reached his knees, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Oh!" When his soul reached his navel, he said: "Ah, how great the pain is!" Sayyidah Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: "O my dear father, if only I had this pain in your place!" When the soul of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) reached his chest, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Jibril, how severe the bitterness of death is!" Sayyiduna Jibril (peace be upon him) turned his face away from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Jibril, do you dislike looking at me?" Sayyiduna Jibril (peace be upon him) said: "O my beloved, who could bear to look at you while you are facing the throes of death?" Then, when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had passed away, Sayyiduna Ali bin Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) washed him, the son of Sayyiduna Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) poured the water, and Sayyiduna Jibril (peace be upon him) was with the two of them. He was shrouded in three new garments, then placed on a bier, then brought into the mosque and placed in the mosque, and the people went out of the mosque. First of all the Lord sent mercy upon him from above His Throne, then Jibril, then Mika'il, then Israfil, and then the angels kept coming group after group praying for mercy. Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) says: We heard a sound in the mosque, but we did not see anyone. We heard an unseen caller saying: "Come in, may Allah Almighty have mercy on you, and pray for mercy for your Prophet." So we went in and stood in rows, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had commanded us. We said the takbirs following the takbirs of Sayyiduna Jibril (peace be upon him), and we offered the funeral prayer of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) following Sayyiduna Jibril (peace be upon him). Not one of us stepped forward ahead of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). Then Sayyiduna Abu Bakr al-Siddiq (may Allah be pleased with him), Sayyiduna Ali bin Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) and the son of Sayyiduna Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) entered his grave, and he was buried. When the people returned after burying him, Sayyidah Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her) said to Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him): "O Abu al-Hasan, have you buried the Messenger of Allah?" They answered: "Yes." Sayyidah Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: "How could your hearts bear to throw earth upon the Messenger of Allah? Was there no mercy in your hearts for the Messenger of Allah? Was he not the teacher of good?" Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "Yes, O Fatimah, but the command of Allah Almighty cannot be turned back." Then Sayyidah Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her) began to weep, saying: "Alas, my dear father! Now the coming of Jibril has ended, that Jibril who used to bring us revelation from the heavens."
Al-Tabarani recorded it; its chain contains a narrator, Abd al-Mun'im bin Idris, and he is a kadhdhab (liar) and a fabricator of hadith.
