(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا
صَفْوَانُ بْنُ عِيسَى ، حَدَّثَنَا
أُنَيْسُ بْنُ أَبِي يَحْيَى ، عَنْ
أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ
أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ ، قَالَ : خَرَجَ عَلَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي مَرَضِهِ الَّذِي مَاتَ فِيهِ ، وَهُوَ عَاصِبٌ رَأْسَهُ ، قَالَ : فَاتَّبَعْتُهُ حَتَّى صَعِدَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ ، قَالَ : فَقَالَ : " إِنِّي السَّاعَةَ لَقَائِمٌ عَلَى الْحَوْضِ ، قَالَ : ثُمَّ قَالَ : إِنَّ عَبْدًا عُرِضَتْ عَلَيْهِ الدُّنْيَا وَزِينَتَهَا ، فَاخْتَارَ الْآخِرَةَ " ، فَلَمْ يَفْطَنْ لَهَا أَحَدٌ مِنَ الْقَوْمِ ، إِلَّا أَبُو بَكْرٍ ، فَقَالَ : بِأَبِي أَنْتَ وَأُمِّي ، بَلْ نَفْدِيكَ بِأَمْوَالِنَا ، وَأَنْفُسِنَا ، وَأَوْلَادِنَا ، قَالَ : ثُمَّ هَبَطَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنِ الْمِنْبَرِ ، فَمَا رُؤِيَ عَلَيْهِ حَتَّى السَّاعَةِ .
It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Saeed (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), during his final illness, came out with a band tied around his head and ascended the pulpit. I was also present. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "At this moment, I am standing at the Pond of Kawthar." Then he said, "Allah Almighty gave one of His servants the choice between the world and coming to Him, and that servant preferred to go to Allah." Among all the people, no one understood this except Hazrat Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him), and he said, "May my parents be sacrificed for you; we will give our lives, wealth, and children for you." Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) descended from the pulpit and was never seen on it again.
