أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، ثنا عَلِيُّ بْنُ حَمْشَاذٍ الْعَدْلُ، ثنا عُبَيْدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْحَافِظُ، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي صَفْوَانَ، ثنا حِرْمِيُّ بْنُ عُمَارَةَ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ النَّضْرِ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي قَالَ: " كَانَتْ ظُلْمَةٌ عَلَى عَهْدِ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ: فَأَتَيْتُ أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ، فَقُلْتُ: يَا أَبَا حَمْزَةَ، هَلْ كَانَ يُصِيبكُمْ مِثْلُ هَذَا عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ؟ فَقَالَ: " مَعَاذَ اللهِ، إِنْ كَانَتِ الرِّيحُ لَتَشْتَدُّ فَنُبَادِرُ إِلَى الْمَسْجِدِ مَخَافَةَ الْقِيَامَةِ ".
Ubaydullah bin al-Nadr narrates from his father that in the time of Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) there was a severe darkness. So I came to Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) and said: O Abu Hamzah (may Allah be pleased with him)! Did a darkness like this ever befall you in the time of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)? He said: "Ma'adh Allah" (Allah forbid)! If a strong wind blew, we would hasten to the mosque out of fear of the Resurrection.
أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ الْقَاضِي، أنبأ حَاجِبُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رَافِعٍ، ثنا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ الْحَكَمِ بْنِ أَبَانَ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ، ح وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الرُّوذْبَارِيُّ، أنبأ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَكْرٍ، ثنا أَبُو دَاوُدَ، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ أَبِي صَفْوَانَ الثَّقَفِيُّ، ثنا يَحْيَى بْنُ كَثِيرٍ، ثنا سَلَمُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، عَنِ الْحَكَمِ بْنِ أَبَانَ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ قَالَ: " قِيلَ لِابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ: مَاتَتْ فُلَانَةُ، بَعْضُ أَزْوَاجِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَخَرَّ سَاجِدًا، فَقِيلَ لَهُ: تَسْجُدُ هَذِهِ السَّاعَةَ؟ فَقَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " إِذَا رَأَيْتُمْ آيَةً فَاسْجُدُوا " وَأِيُّ آيَةٍ أَعْظَمُ مِنْ ذِهَابِ أَزْوَاجِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ". لَفْظُ حَدِيثِ الرُّوذْبَارِيِّ.
(a) Ikrimah (may Allah have mercy on him) said: It was said to Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that such-and-such wife of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had died, and he fell down in prostration. It was said: Do you prostrate at this time? He said: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When you see a sign, then prostrate." And what sign could be greater than the passing away of the wives of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)?
(b) In the narration of al-Qadi it says: We heard a cry in Madinah, and Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) said to me: O Ikrimah! Go and see what this cry is. He said: I went and found that Sayyidah Safiyyah bint Huyayy (may Allah be pleased with her), the wife of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), had died.
He said: I came to Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) and found him in prostration, although the sun had not yet risen.
I said: Subhan Allah! The sun has not yet risen, and you have already prostrated! He said: Did the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) not say: "When you see a sign, then prostrate"? So what sign could be greater than that the Mothers of the Believers are departing from among us while we remain alive?

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، وَأَبُو سَعِيدِ بْنُ أَبِي عَمْرٍو قَالَا: ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، ثنا أَسِيدُ بْنُ عَاصِمٍ، ثنا الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ حَفْصٍ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ حَبِيبٍ يَعْنِي ابْنَ حَسَّانَ، عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ، عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ قَالَ: قَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ: " إِذَا سَمِعْتُمْ هَادًا مِنَ السَّمَاءِ فَافْزَعُوا إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ ".
Alqamah (may Allah have mercy on him) said that Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "When you hear a crashing sound from the sky, then seek help through prayer."
