Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 32707 — Reports on talk about rulers
٣٢٧٠٧ - حدثنا أبو أسامة (١) حدثنا هشام عن أبيه قال: دخلت أنا وعبد اللَّه بن الزبير على أسماء قبل قتل عبد اللَّه بعشر ليال وأسماء وجعة، فقال لها عبد اللَّه: كيف تجدينك؟ قالت: وجعة، قال: إن في الموت لعافية، (قالت) (٢): لعلك (تشمت بموتي) (٣)، (فلذلك) (٤) (تتمناه) (٥) فلا (تفعل) (٦)، فواللَّه ما أشتهي أن أموت حتى يأتي علي أحد (طريقيك) (٧)، إما أن تقتل فأحتسبك، وإما (أن) (٨) (تظهر) (٩) فتقر عيني، فإياك أن تعرض عليك (خطة) (١٠) لا توافقك فتقبلها كراهة الموت، قال: وإنما عنى ابن الزبير ليقتل فيحزنها ذلك (١١).
Urwah said: Abdullah bin al-Zubayr (may Allah be pleased with him) and I went to Sayyidah Asma (may Allah be pleased with her) ten nights before the killing of Abdullah. Sayyidah Asma (may Allah be pleased with her) was in pain. Abdullah asked her: "How do you feel?" She said: "I am in pain." Abdullah said: "In death there is relief." She said: "Perhaps you are gloating over my death, and that is why you are wishing for it. Do not do so. By Allah, I do not want to die until the news of one of your two outcomes reaches me: either you are killed, and I hope for the reward over you and bear it patiently, or you gain victory, and my eyes are comforted. Beware of being offered some arrangement that does not suit you and accepting it to escape death." The narrator said: Ibn al-Zubayr (may Allah be pleased with him) said this to her because he was certain of being killed, and he thought that Sayyidah Asma (may Allah be pleased with her) might be grieved by his killing.
