Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 18258

وَعَنْ أَنَسٍ : أَنَّ بِلَالًا أَبْطَأَ عَنْ صَلَاةِ الصُّبْحِ ، فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " مَا حَبَسَكَ ؟ " . قَالَ : مَرَرْتُ بِفَاطِمَةَ وَهِيَ تَطْحَنُ وَالصَّبِيُّ يَبْكِي ، فَقُلْتُ لَهَا : إِنْ شِئْتِ كَفَيْتُكِ الرَّحَا ، وَكَفَيْتِنِي الصَّبِيَّ ، وَإِنْ شِئْتِ كَفَيْتُكِ الصَّبِيَّ ، وَكَفَيْتِنِي الرَّحَا ؟ قَالَتْ : أَنَا أَرْفَقُ بِابْنِي مِنْكَ ، فَذَاكَ حَبَسَنِي . فَقَالَ : " رَحِمْتَهَا - رَحِمَكَ اللَّهُ - " . رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ ، وَرِجَالُهُ ثِقَاتٌ إِلَّا أَنَّ أَبَا هَاشِمٍ صَاحِبَ الزَّعْفَرَانِ لَمْ يَسْمَعْ مِنْ أَنَسٍ ، وَاللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ .
Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: Sayyiduna Bilal (may Allah be pleased with him) was late in coming for the morning prayer. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked him: What held you back? He said: I passed by (the house of) Sayyidah Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her). She was grinding at the hand-mill and the child was crying. I said: I will grind the mill in your place and you look after the child; or if you wish, I will look after the child and you grind the mill. She said: I am more tender towards my son than you (that is, I will look after the child). (Sayyiduna Bilal (may Allah be pleased with him) said:) That is why I was late. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: You showed her mercy; may Allah Almighty have mercy on you.
Ahmad recorded this narration and its narrators are thiqat (trustworthy), except that the narrator Abu Hashim did not hear from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him).
