أَخْبَرَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ سَعِيدِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ الطَّائِيُّ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ أَبِي بَكْرٍ عَنْ مَالِكٍ عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتِ الْمُنْذِرِ عَنْ أَسْمَاءَ بِنْتِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ
أَتَيْتُ عَائِشَةَ حِينَ خَسَفَتِ الشَّمْسُ فَإِذَا النَّاسُ قِيَامٌ يُصَلُّونَ وَإِذَا هِيَ قَائِمَةٌ تُصَلِّي فَقُلْتُ مَا لِلنَّاسِ؟ فَأَشَارَتْ بِيَدِهَا إِلَى السَّمَاءِ وَقَالَتْ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ فَقُلْتُ آيَةٌ؟ فَأَشَارَتْ أَيْ نَعَمْ قَالَتْ فَقُمْتُ حَتَّى تَجَلَّانِي الْغَشْيُ فَجَعَلْتُ أُصُبُّ الْمَاءَ فَوْقَ رَأْسِي فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفَ حَمِدَ اللَّهَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَأَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ «مَا مِنْ شَيْءٍ كُنْتُ لَمْ أَرَهُ إِلَّا قَدْ رَأَيْتُهُ فِي مَقَامِي هَذَا حَتَّى الْجَنَّةَ وَالنَّارَ وَلَقَدْ أُوحِيَ إِلَيَّ أَنَّكُمْ تُفْتَنُونَ فِي الْقُبُورِ مِثْلَ أَوْ قَرِيبًا مِنْ فِتْنَةِ الدَّجَّالِ لَا أَدْرِي أَيَّ ذَلِكَ قَالَتْ أَسْمَاءُ يُؤْتَى أَحَدُكُمْ فَيُقَالُ لَهُ مَا عِلْمُكَ بِهَذَا الرَّجُلِ فَأَمَّا الْمُؤْمِنُ أَوِ الْمُوقِنُ فَلَا أَدْرِي أَيَّ ذَلِكَ قَالَتْ أَسْمَاءُ فَيَقُولُ مُحَمَّدٌ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ جَاءَنَا بِالْبَيِّنَاتِ وَالْهُدَى فَأَجَبْنَا وَآمَنَّا وَاتَّبَعْنَا فَيُقَالُ لَهُ نَمْ صَالِحًا قَدْ عَلِمْنَا إِنْ كُنْتَ لَمُؤْمِنًا وَأَمَّا الْمُنَافِقُ أَوِ الْمُرْتَابُ لَا أَدْرِي أَيَّ ذَلِكَ قَالَتْ أَسْمَاءُ فَيَقُولُ لَا أَدْرِي سَمِعْتُ النَّاسَ يَقُولُونَ شَيْئًا فَقُلْتُهُ»

✧ I went to 'A'ishah when the sun eclipsed. The people were standing praying, and she was standing praying. I said: 'What is with the people?' She pointed with her hand toward the sky and said: 'Glory be to Allah.' I said: 'A sign?' She gestured: 'Yes.' She said: 'So I stood until I was overcome by fainting, and I began pouring water over my head. When the Messenger of Allah finished, he praised Allah and extolled Him, then said: "There is nothing I had not seen except that I have seen it in this station of mine, even Paradise and Hellfire. It has been revealed to me that you will be tested in your graves, like or close to the trial of the Dajjal—I do not know which of them Asma' said. One of you will be approached and asked: 'What knowledge do you have of this man?' As for the believer or the certain one—I do not know which of them Asma' said—he says: 'Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah. He came to us with clear proofs and guidance, so we answered, believed, and followed.' It is said to him: 'Sleep well. We knew that you were a believer.' As for the hypocrite or the doubter—I do not know which of them Asma' said—he says: 'I do not know. I heard people saying something, so I said it.'"
