أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ قُدَامَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ عَنِ مُغِيرَةَ عَنْ أُمِّ مُوسَى قَالَتْ
قَالَتْ أُمُّ سَلَمَةَ وَالَّذِي تَحْلِفُ بِهِ أُمُّ سَلَمَةَ إِنْ كَانَ لَأَقْرَبَ النَّاسِ عَهْدًا بِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ عَلِيٌّ قَالَتْ لَمَّا كَانَ غَدَاةَ قُبِضَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَرْسَلَ إِلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَكَأَنْ أَرَى فِي حَاجَةٍ أَظُنُّهُ بَعَثَهُ فَجَعَلَ يَقُولُ «جَاءَ عَلِيٌّ؟ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ فَجَاءَ قَبْلَ طُلُوعِ الشَّمْسِ فَلَمَّا أَنْ جَاءَ عَرَفْنَا أَنَّ لَهُ إِلَيْهِ حَاجَةً فَخَرَجْنَا مِنَ الْبَيْتِ وَكُنَّا عُدْنَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَوْمَئِذٍ فِي بَيْتِ عَائِشَةَ فَكُنْتُ فِي آخِرِ مَنْ خَرَجَ مِنَ الْبَيْتِ ثُمَّ جَلَسْتُ أَدْنَاهُنَّ مِنَ الْبَابِ فَأَكَبَّ عَلَيْهِ عَلِيٌّ فَكَانَ آخِرَ النَّاسِ بِهِ عَهْدًا جَعَلَ يُسَارُّهُ وَيُنَاجِيهِ»

✧ Umm Salamah said, by the One Umm Salamah swears by, that the closest of the people in covenant with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was ʿAli. She said: On the morning when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed away, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent for him, and it was as if I saw that he had a need—I think he sent him for something. He kept saying: “Has ʿAli come?” three times. He came before sunrise, and when he came, we knew that he had a need with him, so we left the house. That day we had been visiting the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in the house of ʿAʾishah, and I was the last to leave the house. Then I sat closest of them to the door. ʿAli leaned over him, and he was the last of the people to have a covenant with him, as he whispered to him and conversed with him privately.
