أَخْبَرَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مَعْمَرٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو دَاوُدَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ عَنْ فِرَاسٍ عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرْتِنِي عَائِشَةُ قَالَتْ

كُنَّا عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ جَمِيعًا مَا تُغَادِرُ مِنَّا وَاحِدَةٌ فَجَاءَتْ فَاطِمَةُ تَمْشِي وَلَا وَاللهِ أَنْ تُخْطِئَ مِشْيَتُهَا مِشْيَةَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ حَتَّى انْتَهَتْ إِلَيْهِ فَقَالَ «مَرْحَبًا بِابْنَتِي» فَأَقْعَدَهَا عَنْ يَمِينِهِ أَوْ عَنْ يَسَارِهِ ثُمَّ سَارَّهَا بِشَيْءٍ فَبَكَتْ بَكَّاءً شَدِيدًا ثُمَّ سَارَّهَا بِشَيْءٍ فَضَحِكَتْ فَلَمَّا قَامَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ قُلْتُ لَهَا خَصَّكِ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مِنْ بَيْنِنَا بِالسِّرَارِ وَأَنْتَ تَبْكِينَ أَخْبِرِينِي مَا قَالَ لَكِ قَالَتْ مَا كُنْتُ لِأُفْشِيَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ سَرَّهُ فَلَمَّا تُوُفِّيَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ قُلْتُ لَهَا أَسْأَلُكِ بِالَّذِي لِي عَلَيْكِ مِنَ الْحَقِّ مَا سَارَّكِ بِهِ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ؟ فَقَالَتْ أَمَّا الْآنَ فَنَعَمْ سَارَّنِي الْمَرَّةَ الْأُولَى فَقَالَ «إِنَّ جِبْرِيلَ كَانَ يُعَارِضُنِي بِالْقُرْآنِ فِي كُلِّ عَامٍ مَرَّةً وَإِنَّهُ عَارَضَنِي بِهِ الْعَامَ مَرَّتَيْنِ وَلَا أَرَى الْأَجَلَ إِلَّا قَدِ اقْتَرَبَ فَاتَّقِي اللهَ وَاصْبِرِي» فَبَكَيْتُ ثُمَّ قَالَ لِي «يَا فَاطِمَةُ أَلَا تَرْضَيْنَ أَنَّكِ سَيِّدَةُ نِسَاءِ هَذِهِ الِامَّةِ أَوْ سَيِّدَةُ نِسَاءِ الْعَالَمِينَ» فَضَحِكْتُ

✧ We were all with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, not one of us absent. Fatimah came walking, and by Allah her gait was exactly like the gait of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, until she reached him. He said: “Welcome to my daughter.” He seated her on his right or his left, then he whispered something to her and she wept bitterly. Then he whispered something else and she laughed. When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ got up, I said to her: “The Messenger of Allah ﷺ singled you out for whispering among us and then you wept. Tell me what he said to you.” She said: “I would not divulge the secret of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.” When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ died, I said to her: “I ask you by the right I have over you, what did the Messenger of Allah ﷺ whisper to you?” She said: “Now yes. He whispered to me the first time and said: ‘Jibril used to review the Qur'an with me once every year, and he reviewed it with me twice this year. I do not think that the appointed time is far. So fear Allah and be patient.’ So I wept. Then he said to me: ‘O Fatimah, are you not pleased that you are the mistress of the women of this community, or the mistress of the women of the worlds?’ So I laughed.”
