أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو زَكَرِيَّا يَحْيَى بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْعَنْبَرِيُّ ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ السَّلَامِ ثنا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ أَنْبَأَ عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ أَنْبَأَ مَعْمَرٌ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو سَلَمَةَ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ قَالَ كَانَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ يُحَدِّثُ
أَنَّ أَبَا بَكْرٍ الصِّدِّيقَ دَخَلَ الْمَسْجِدَ وَعُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ يُحَدِّثُ النَّاسَ فَأَتَى الْبَيْتَ الَّذِي تُوُفِّيَ فِيهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَكَشَفَ عَنْ وَجْهِهِ بُرْدَ حِبْرَةٍ وَكَانَ مُسَجًّى بِهِ فَنَظَرَ إِلَيْهِ فَأَكَبَّ عَلَيْهِ لَيُقَبِّلَ وَجْهَهُ وَقَالَ وَاللَّهِ لَا يَجْمَعُ اللَّهُ عَلَيْكَ مَوْتَتَيْنِ بَعْدَ مَوْتِكَ الَّتِي لَا تَمُوتُ بَعْدَهَا ثُمَّ خَرَجَ إِلَى الْمَسْجِدِ وَعُمَرُ يُكَلِّمُ النَّاسَ فَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ اجْلِسْ يَا عُمَرُ فَأَبَى فَكَلَّمَهُ مَرَّتَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلَاثًا فَأَبَى فَقَامَ فَتَشَهَّدَ فَلَمَّا قَضَى تَشَهُّدَهُ قَالَ أَمَّا بَعْدُ فَمَنْ كَانَ يَعْبُدُ مُحَمَّدًا فَإِنَّ مُحَمَّدًا ﷺ قَدْ مَاتَ وَمَنْ كَانَ يَعْبُدُ اللَّهَ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ حَيٌّ لَا يَمُوتُ ثُمَّ تَلَا {وَمَا جَعَلْنَا لِبَشَرٍ مِنْ قَبْلِكَ الْخُلْدَ} [الأنبياء 34] {وَمَا مُحَمَّدٌ إِلَّا رَسُولٌ قَدْ خَلَتْ مِنْ قَبْلِهِ الرُّسُلُ} [آل عمران 144] وَتَلَا إِلَى {الشَّاكِرِينَ} [آل عمران 144] فَمَا هُوَ إِلَّا أَنْ تَلَاهَا فَأَيْقَنَ النَّاسُ بِمَوْتِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ حَتَّى قَالَ قَائِلٌ لَمْ يَعْلَمِ النَّاسُ أَنَّ هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ أُنْزِلَتْ حَتَّى تَلَاهَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ قَالَ الزُّهْرِيُّ فَأَخْبَرَنِي سَعِيدُ بْنُ الْمُسَيِّبِ أَنَّ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ قَالَ لَمَّا تَلَاهَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ عُقِرْتُ حَتَّى خَرَرْتُ إِلَى الْأَرْضِ وَأَيْقَنْتُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَدْ مَاتَ

✧ Abū Bakr al-Ṣiddīq entered the mosque while ʿUmar b. al-Khaṭṭāb was addressing the people. He went to the room in which the Messenger of Allah ﷺ had died, uncovered his face from the striped Yemeni cloak with which he was shrouded, looked at him, leaned over to kiss his face, and said: 'By Allah, Allah will not cause you to die twice after this death of yours, after which you will never die.' Then he went out to the mosque while ʿUmar was speaking to the people. Abū Bakr said: 'Sit down, O ʿUmar.' He refused. He spoke to him twice or three times, but he refused. Then he stood up and recited the testimony of faith. When he finished, he said: 'Now then, whoever worshipped Muḥammad, Muhammad ﷺ has died; and whoever worshipped Allah, Allah is ever-living and never dies.' Then he recited: 'And We did not grant immortality to any human before you' (Al-Anbiyāʾ 34), and 'Muḥammad is but a messenger; messengers have passed away before him' (Āl ʿImrān 144), and he recited up to 'the grateful.' No sooner had he recited it than the people became certain of the death of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, so much so that someone said: 'The people did not know that this verse had been revealed until Abū Bakr recited it.' Al-Zuhrī said: Saʿīd b. al-Musayyib informed me that ʿUmar b. al-Khaṭṭāb said: 'When Abū Bakr recited it, I was stunned and fell to the ground, and I became certain that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ had died.'
