Musnad Abi Ya'la 4478 — during his illness the Messenger of Allah ﷺ
حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - قَالَ فِي مَرَضِهِ : لِيَؤُمَّ النَّاسَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ ، فَقَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ لِحَفْصَةَ : قُولِي لَهُ : إِنَّ أَبَا بَكْرٍ رَجُلٌ رَقِيقُ الْقَلْبِ ، وَإِنَّهُ إِذَا قَامَ مَقَامَكَ لَمْ يُسْمِعِ النَّاسَ مِنَ الْبُكَاءِ ، فَمُرْ عُمَرَ فَلْيَؤُمَّ النَّاسَ ، فَقَالَتْ حَفْصَةُ ذَلِكَ لِلنَّبِيِّ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَقَالَ : لِيَؤُمَّ النَّاسَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ ، فَقَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ لِحَفْصَةَ مِثْلَ مَقَالَتِهَا الْأُولَى ، فَقَالَ : لِيَؤُمَّ النَّاسَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ ، فَأَعَادَتْ عَائِشَةُ لِحَفْصَةَ مِثْلَ مَقَالَتِهَا لِلنَّبِيِّ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَقَالَ : دَعِينِي ، إِنَّكُنَّ لَأَنْتُنَّ صَوَاحِبُ يُوسُفَ ، لِيَؤُمَّ النَّاسَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ .
It is narrated from Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) that during his illness the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Let Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) lead the people in prayer." At this Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) said to Sayyidah Hafsah (may Allah be pleased with her): Say to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him): "Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) is a very tender-hearted man; when he stands in your place he will not be able to make the people hear (the recitation) because of his much weeping, so order Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) to lead the people." When Sayyidah Hafsah (may Allah be pleased with her) said this to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Let Abu Bakr lead the people." Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) said to Sayyidah Hafsah (may Allah be pleased with her) the same as she had said the first time, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Let Abu Bakr lead the people." Then Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) again asked Sayyidah Hafsah (may Allah be pleased with her) to repeat the same words before the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and he (peace and blessings be upon him) (showing his displeasure) said: "Leave me! You are just like the women in the story of Yusuf (peace be upon him) (persisting). Let Abu Bakr lead the people in prayer."
