أَخْبَرَنَا عِمْرَانُ بْنُ مُوسَى بْنِ مُجَاشِعٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي نَجِيحٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ بْنِ عُمَيْرٍ قَالَ قَالَتْ أُمُّ سَلَمَةَ
لَمَّا مَاتَ أَبُو سَلَمَةَ قُلْتُ غَرِيبٌ فِي أَرْضِ غُرْبَةٍ لَأَبْكِيَنَّ بُكَاءً يُتَحَدَّثُ عَنْهُ وَكُنْتُ قَدْ هَيَّأْتُ الْبُكَاءُ عَلَيْهِ إِذْ أَقْبَلَتِ امْرَأَةٌ مِنَ الْمُسْعِدَاتِ تُرِيدُ أَنْ تُسْعِدَنِي فَاسْتَقْبَلَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَقَالَ «تُرِيدِينَ أَنْ تُدْخِلِي الشَّيْطَانَ بَيْتًا أَخْرَجَهُ اللَّهُ مِنْهُ» قَالَتْ فَكَفَفْتُ عَنِ الْبُكَاءِ وَلَمْ أَبْكِ

✧ When Abu Salamah died, I said, 'A stranger in a strange land—I will weep for him with such weeping that it will be talked about.' I had prepared to weep over him when a woman from the Mus'idat (women who assist in wailing) came wanting to join me in wailing. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ met her and said, 'Do you want to let the devil into a house from which Allah has expelled him?' She said, 'So I refrained from weeping and did not weep.'
