Al-Matalib al-'Aliyah 3159 — The life of the Salaf

وَقَالَ الْحَارِثُ : حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي بُكَيْرٍ ، ثَنَا الْمُسْتَلِمُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي حَازِمٍ قَالَ : جَعَلَ عُرْوَةُ بْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُمَا لِعَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهَا طَعَامًا فَجَعَلَ يَرْفَعُ قَصْعَةً وَيَضَعُ قَصْعَةً . قَالَ : فَحَوَّلَتْ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهَا وَجْهَهَا إِلَى الْحَائِطِ تَبْكِي ، فَقَالَ لَهَا عُرْوَةُ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ : كَدَّرْتِ عَلَيْنَا ، فَقَالَتْ : " وَالَّذِي بَعَثَهُ بِالْحَقِّ ، مَا رَأَى الْمَنَاخِلَ مُنْذُ بَعَثَهُ اللهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى حَتَّى قُبِضَ " .
It is narrated from Abu Hazim that Urwah bin al-Zubayr (may Allah have mercy on him) prepared food for the Mother of the Believers, Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her), and he kept (in an elaborate manner) bringing one bowl and setting down another. Seeing this, Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) turned her blessed face towards the wall and began to weep. At this Urwah (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "You have spoiled (this happy occasion) for us." She said: "By the One who sent him with the truth! From the time Allah, the Blessed and Exalted, sent him until his death, he (the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him) never once saw a sieve."
Explanation: In Arabic hadith books, for the sake of brevity or because of family nobility, 'radiyallahu 'anhuma' or 'radiyallahu 'anhu' is sometimes written even with his name (as on account of his father al-Zubayr (may Allah be pleased with him) being a Companion); however, according to all the imams of narrator-criticism and history, he is counted, in terms of scholarship and generation, among the senior Successors (Tabi'in).
Imam al-Harith bin Abi Usamah narrated it in his Musnad, and all the narrators of its chain are thiqat (trustworthy).
