حدثنا أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلَاءِ ، حدثنا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ . ح وحدثنا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ ، قَالَ : وَجَدْتُ فِي كِتَابِي ، عَنْ أَبِي أُسَامَةَ ، عَنْ هِشَامٍ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ، قَالَت : " تَزَوَّجَنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِسِتِّ سِنِينَ ، وَبَنَى بِي وَأَنَا بِنْتُ تِسْعِ سِنِينَ " ، قَالَت : فَقَدِمْنَا الْمَدِينَةَ ، فَوُعِكْتُ شَهْرًا فَوَفَى شَعْرِي جُمَيْمَةً ، فَأَتَتْنِي أُمُّ رُومَانَ ، وَأَنَا عَلَى أُرْجُوحَةٍ وَمَعِي صَوَاحِبِي ، فَصَرَخَتْ بِي فَأَتَيْتُهَا ، وَمَا أَدْرِي مَا تُرِيدُ بِي ، فَأَخَذَتْ بِيَدِي فَأَوْقَفَتْنِي عَلَى الْبَابِ ، فَقُلْتُ : هَهْ هَهْ حَتَّى ذَهَبَ نَفَسِي ، فَأَدْخَلَتْنِي بَيْتًا ، فَإِذَا نِسْوَةٌ مِن الْأَنْصَارِ ، فَقُلْنَ عَلَى الْخَيْرِ وَالْبَرَكَةِ وَعَلَى خَيْرِ طَائِرٍ ، فَأَسْلَمَتْنِي إِلَيْهِنَّ ، فَغَسَلْنَ رَأْسِي وَأَصْلَحْنَنِي ، فَلَمْ يَرُعْنِي إِلَّا وَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ضُحًى ، فَأَسْلَمْنَنِي إِلَيْهِ " .
'A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) reported: Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) married me when I was six years old, and I was admitted to his house at the age of nine. She further said: We went to Madinah and I had an attack of fever for a month, and my hair had come down to the earlobes. Umm Ruman (my mother) came to me and I was at that time on a swing along with my playmates. She called me loudly and I went to her and I did not know what she had wanted of me. She took hold of my hand and took me to the door, and I was saying: Ha, ha (as if I was gasping), until the agitation of my heart was over. She took me to a house, where had gathered the women of the Ansar. They all blessed me and wished me good luck and said: May you have share in good. She (my mother) entrusted me to them. They washed my head and embellished me and nothing frightened me. Allah's Messenger ( may peace be upon him) came there in the morning, and I was entrusted to him.
