عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، عَنْ هِشَامٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ سِيرِينَ قَالَ:
خَرَجَتْ أُمُّ أَيْمَنَ مُهَاجِرَةً إِلَى اللهِ وَإِلَى رَسُولِهِ ﷺ وَهِيَ صَائِمَةٌ لَيْسَ مَعَهَا زَادٌ وَلَا حَمُولَةٌ، وَلَا سِقَاءٌ فِي شِدَّةِ حَرِّ تِهَامَةَ، وَقَدْ كَادَتْ تَمُوتُ مِنَ الْجُوعِ وَالْعَطَشِ حَتَّى إِذَا كَانَ الْحِينُ الَّذِي فِيهِ يُفْطِرُ الصَّائِمُ، سَمِعَتْ حَفِيفًا عَلَى رَأْسِهَا، فَرَفَعَتْ رَأْسَهَا، فَإِذَا دَلْوٌ مُعَلَّقٌ بِرِشَاءٍ أَبْيَضَ " قَالَتْ: " فَأَخَذْتُهُ بِيَدَيَّ، فَشَرِبْتُ مِنْهُ حَتَّى رَوِيتُ، فَمَا عَطِشْتُ بَعْدُ "، قَالَ: " فَكَانَتْ تَصُومُ وَتَطُوفُ لِكَيْ تَعْطَشَ فِي صَوْمِهَا، فَمَا قَدَرَتْ عَلَى أَنْ تَعْطَشَ حَتَّى مَاتَتْ
Translation
✧ Umm Ayman set out as an emigrant to God and His Messenger ﷺ while she was fasting, with no provision, no mount, and no water-skin, in the intense heat of Tihamah. She had nearly died of hunger and thirst until, at the time when the fasting person breaks the fast, she heard a rustling above her head. She raised her head and saw a bucket suspended by a white rope. She said: “I took it with my hands and drank from it until I was quenched, and I was never thirsty after that.” He said: “She used to fast and circumambulate in order to become thirsty during her fast, but she was never able to become thirsty until she died.”
