حَدَّثَنَا
مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، حَدَّثَنَا
الْأَوْزَاعِيُّ، حَدَّثَنِي
الزُّهْرِيُّ، عَنْ
سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، عَنْ
ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، أَنَّ امْرَأَةً مِنْ خَثْعَمَ اسْتَفْتَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي حَجَّةِ الْوَدَاعِ، وَالْفَضْلُ بْنُ عَبَّاسٍ رَدِيفُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَتْ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، إِنَّ فَرِيضَةَ اللَّهِ عَلَى عِبَادِهِ أَدْرَكَتْ أَبِي شَيْخًا كَبِيرًا، لَا يَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ يَسْتَوِيَ عَلَى الرَّاحِلَةِ،
فَهَلْ يَقْضِي أَنْ أَحُجَّ عَنْهُ؟ قَالَ: "نَعَمْ".
