Hadith 1291
أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ يُونُسَ، حَدَّثَنَا زَائِدَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ أَبِي عَائِشَةَ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ: دَخَلْتُ عَلَى عَائِشَةَ فَقُلْتُ لَهَا: لا تُحَدِّثِينِي عَنْ مَرَضِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ؟ فَقَالَتْ: بَلَى، ثَقُلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ: "أَصَلَّى النَّاسُ ؟"قُلْنَا: لَا، هُمْ يَنْتَظِرُونَكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، فَقَالَ: "ضَعُوا لِي مَاءً فِي الْمِخْضَبِ". قَالَتْ: فَفَعَلْنَا، فَاغْتَسَلَ، ثُمَّ ذَهَبَ لِيَنُوءَ فَأُغْمِيَ عَلَيْهِ، ثُمَّ أَفَاقَ، فَقَالَ: "أَصَلَّى النَّاسُ ؟"فَقُلْنَا: لَا، هُمْ يَنْتَظِرُونَكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، فَقَالَ: "ضَعُوا لِي مَاءً فِي الْمِخْضَبِ". فَفَعَلْنَا، ثُمَّ ذَهَبَ لِيَنُوءَ، فَأُغْمِيَ عَلَيْهِ، ثُمَّ أَفَاقَ، فَقَالَ: "أَصَلَّى النَّاسُ ؟"فَقُلْنَا: لَا، هُمْ يَنْتَظِرُونَكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ . قَالَتْ: وَالنَّاسُ عُكُوفٌ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ يَنْتَظِرُونَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِصَلَاةِ الْعِشَاءِ الْآخِرَةِ . قَالَتْ: فَأَرْسَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِلَى أَبِي بَكْرٍ أَنْ يُصَلِّيَ بِالنَّاسِ . قَالَتْ: فَأَتَاهُ الرَّسُولُ، فَقَالَ: إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَأْمُرُكَ بِأَنْ تُصَلِّيَ بِالنَّاسِ . فَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَكَانَ رَجُلًا رَقِيقًا: يَا عُمَرُ، صَلِّ بِالنَّاسِ . فَقَالَ لَهُ عُمَرُ: أَنْتَ أَحَقُّ بِذَلِكَ . قَالَتْ: فَصَلَّى بِهِمْ أَبُو بَكْرٍ تِلْكَ الْأَيَّامَ . قَالَتْ: ثُمَّ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَجَدَ مِنْ نَفْسِهِ خِفَّةً فَخَرَجَ بَيْنَ رَجُلَيْنِ أَحَدُهُمَا الْعَبَّاسُ لِصَلَاةِ الظُّهْرِ، وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ يُصَلِّي بِالنَّاسِ، فَلَمَّا رَآهُ أَبُو بَكْرٍ ذَهَبَ لِيَتَأَخَّرَ، فَأَوْمَأَ إِلَيْهِ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ لَا يَتَأَخَّرَ، وَقَالَ لَهُمَا: "أَجْلِسَانِي إِلَى جَنْبِهِ". فَأَجْلَسَاهُ إِلَى جَنْبِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ . قَالَتْ: فَجَعَلَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ يُصَلِّي وَهُوَ قَائِمٌ بِصَلَاةِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَالنَّاسُ يُصَلُّونَ بِصَلَاةِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ وَالنَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَاعِدٌ" . قَالَ عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ: فَدَخَلْتُ عَلَى عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، فَقُلْتُ لَهُ: أَلَا أَعْرِضُ عَلَيْكَ مَا حَدَّثَتْنِي عَائِشَةُ عَنْ مَرَضِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ؟ فَقَالَ: هَاتِ، فَعَرَضْتُ حَدِيثَهَا عَلَيْهِ، فَمَا أَنْكَرَ مِنْهُ شَيْئًا غَيْرَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: أَسَمَّتْ لَكَ الرَّجُلَ الَّذِي كَانَ مَعَ الْعَبَّاسِ ؟ قُلْتُ: لَا، فَقَالَ: هُوَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ.
Abdullah bin Abdullah (bin Utbah) said: I went to Lady Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) and asked her: Will you not describe to me the illness of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)? She said: Certainly, (listen). When the illness of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) intensified, he asked: “Have the people performed the prayer?” We said: No, O Messenger of Allah! The people are waiting for you. He said: “Put water for me in the tub.” Lady Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) said: We put water for him, he sat and performed ghusl (ritual bath), and when he tried to get up, he fainted. When he regained consciousness, he again asked: “Have the people performed the prayer?” We said: No, O Messenger of Allah! The people are waiting for you. He (again) said: “Put water for me in the tub.” She said: We again put water for him and he sat and performed ghusl, then he tried to get up but again fainted. When he regained consciousness, he again said the same: “Have the people performed the prayer?” We said: No, O Messenger of Allah! The people are waiting for you. Lady Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) said that the people were sitting in the mosque waiting for the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) for the Isha prayer. She said: Finally, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) sent a man to Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) to lead the people in prayer. That man went to Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) and said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) commands you to lead the prayer. Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) was a very soft-hearted man. He said: Umar! You lead the prayer. Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: You are more deserving of it. Lady Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) said: Thus, during those days of illness, Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) continued to lead the prayers. Then, when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) felt a little better, he came out for the Zuhr prayer supported by two men, one of whom was Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him). At that time, Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) was leading the prayer. When Abu Bakr saw him, he wanted to step back, but the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) gestured to him not to step back. Then he said to those two men: Seat me beside Abu Bakr. So they seated him beside Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him), and now Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) was standing, praying following the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and all the people were praying following Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him), and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was praying while sitting. Ubaydullah said: Then I went to Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) and said to him: Shall I narrate to you the hadith that Lady Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) narrated about the illness of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)? He said: Certainly, narrate it. So I narrated the whole hadith to him. He did not deny anything in it, except that he said: Did (Aisha, may Allah be pleased with her) mention the name of the man who was with Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him)? I said: No. Then he informed me that the (other person) was Ali bin Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him and may He be pleased with him).
