حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ الْعَبْدِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ جَعْفَرٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ ، يَقُولُ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " الصَّبْرُ عِنْدَ الصَّدْمَةِ الْأُولَى " .

Hadith 926
وحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى ، حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عُمَرَ ، أَخْبَرَنَا شُعْبَةُ ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ الْبُنَانِيِّ ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ، أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : أَتَى عَلَى امْرَأَةٍ تَبْكِي عَلَى صَبِيٍّ لَهَا ، فَقَالَ لَهَا : " اتَّقِي اللَّهَ وَاصْبِرِي " ، فَقَالَتْ : وَمَا تُبَالِي بِمُصِيبَتِي ، فَلَمَّا ذَهَبَ . قِيلَ لَهَا : إِنَّهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَأَخَذَهَا مِثْلُ الْمَوْتِ ، فَأَتَتْ بَابَهُ فَلَمْ تَجِدْ عَلَى بَابِهِ بَوَّابِينَ ، فَقَالَتْ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، لَمْ أَعْرِفْكَ ، فَقَالَ : " إِنَّمَا الصَّبْرُ عِنْدَ أَوَّلِ صَدْمَةٍ " ، أَوَ قَالَ : " عِنْدَ أَوَّلِ الصَّدْمَةِ " .
Anas bin Malik (RA) reported that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) came to a woman who had been weeping for her (dead) child, and said to her: Fear Allah and show endurance. She (not recognising him) said: You have not been afflicted as I have been. When he (the Holy Prophet) had departed, it was said to her that he was the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) , she was mortally shocked. She came to his door and she did not find doorkeepers at his door. She said: Messenger of Allah. I did not recognise you. He said: Endurance is to be shown at first blow, or at the first blow.
Hadith 926
وحَدَّثَنَاه يَحْيَى بْنُ حَبِيبٍ الْحَارِثِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ الْحَارِثِ . ح وحَدَّثَنَا عُقْبَةُ بْنُ مُكْرَمٍ الْعَمِّيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ بْنُ عَمْرٍو . ح وحَدَّثَنِي أَحْمَدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الدَّوْرَقِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الصَّمَدِ ، قَالُوا جَمِيعًا ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ نَحْوَ حَدِيثِ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عُمَرَ بِقِصَّتِهِ ، وَفِي حَدِيثِ عَبْدِ الصَّمَدِ ، " مَرَّ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِامْرَأَةٍ عِنْدَ قَبْرٍ " .
A hadith like this is narrated with the same chain of transmitters but with the addition of these words:" The Apostle of Allah (ﷺ) happened to pass by a woman (who was sitting) by the side of a grave."
