وحدثناه أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ ، قَالَ : حدثنا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ يَعْنِي ابْنَ مُوسَى ، حدثنا شَيْبَانُ ، عَنْ أَشْعَثَ بْنِ أَبِي الشَّعْثَاءِ ، عَنِ الْأَسْوَدِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ، قَالَت : سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنِ الْحِجْرِ ، وَسَاقَ الْحَدِيثَ بِمَعْنَى حَدِيثِ أَبِي الْأَحْوَصِ ، وَقَالَ فِيهِ : فَقُلْتُ فَمَا شَأْنُ بَابِهِ مُرْتَفِعًا لَا يُصْعَدُ إِلَيْهِ إِلَّا بِسُلَّمٍ ، وَقَالَ : مَخَافَةَ أَنْ تَنْفِرَ قُلُوبُهُمْ .
'A'isha reported: I asked Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) about Hijr, and the rest of the hadith is the same. I also said: Why is it that the door has been made on a higher level, and one cannot (get into it) but with the help of a ladder? The rest of the hadith is the same as reported above and the concluding words are: (I do not change it) out of the apprehension that their hearts may disapprove of it.
