Hadith 25339

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ ، قَالَ : أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْعَاصِ ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ، قَالَتْ : اسْتَأْذَنَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَأَنَا مَعَهُ فِي مِرْطٍ وَاحِدٍ . قَالَتْ : فَأَذِنَ لَهُ ، فَقَضَى إِلَيْهِ حَاجَتَهُ وَهُوَ مَعِي فِي الْمِرْطِ ، ثُمَّ خَرَجَ ، ثُمَّ اسْتَأْذَنَ عَلَيْهِ عُمَرُ ، فَأَذِنَ لَهُ ، فَقَضَى إِلَيْهِ حَاجَتَهُ عَلَى تِلْكَ الْحَالِ ، ثُمَّ خَرَجَ ، ثُمَّ اسْتَأْذَنَ عَلَيْهِ عُثْمَانُ ، فَأَصْلَحَ عَلَيْهِ ثِيَابَهُ ، وَجَلَسَ فَقَضَى إِلَيْهِ حَاجَتَهُ ، ثُمَّ خَرَجَ ، فَقَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ : فَقُلْتُ لَهُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، اسْتَأْذَنَ عَلَيْكَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ ، فَقَضَى إِلَيْكَ حَاجَتَهُ عَلَى حَالِكَ تِلْكَ ، ثُمَّ اسْتَأْذَنَ عَلَيْكَ عُمَرُ ، فَقَضَى إِلَيْكَ حَاجَتَهُ عَلَى حَالِكَ ، ثُمَّ اسْتَأْذَنَ عَلَيْكَ عُثْمَانُ ، فَكَأَنَّكَ احْتَفَظْتَ ؟ ، فَقَالَ : " إِنَّ عُثْمَانَ رَجُلٌ حَيِيٌّ ، وَإِنِّي لَوْ أَذِنْتُ لَهُ عَلَى تِلْكَ الْحَالِ ، خَشِيتُ أَنْ لَا يَقْضِيَ إِلَيَّ حَاجَتَهُ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that once the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was sitting in such a way that I was sitting with him under a single sheet. In the meantime, Hazrat Abu Bakr Siddiq (may Allah be pleased with him) sought permission to enter. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) granted him permission and remained in the same state. Then Hazrat Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) sought permission to enter. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) granted him permission and remained in the same state. Then Hazrat Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) sought permission to enter. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) covered himself with the cloth. When they had left, I said, "O Messenger of Allah! Abu Bakr and Umar sought permission from you, and you granted them permission and remained in the same state, but when Uthman sought permission, you covered yourself with the cloth?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Uthman is a very modest man. If I had permitted him to enter in that state, I feared that he would not have been able to express his need (for which he had come)."
