حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ أَبِي خَيْثَمَةَ قَالَ: نَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ خَلَفٍ الْعَطَّارُ قَالَ: نَا مُوسَى بْنُ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ قَالَ: نَا هِشَامُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ قَالَ:
لَمَّا مَرِضَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ قَالَ: ادْعُوا لِي بِصَحِيفَةٍ وَدَوَاةٍ، أَكْتُبُ لَكُمْ كِتَابًا لَا تَضِلُّوا بَعْدَهُ أَبَدًا "، فَكَرِهْنَا ذَلِكَ أَشَدَّ الْكَرَاهَةِ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: " ادْعُوا لِي بِصَحِيفَةٍ أَكْتُبُ لَكُمْ كِتَابًا لَا تَضِلُّوا بَعْدَهُ أَبَدًا "، فَقَالَ النِّسْوَةُ مِنْ وَرَاءِ السِّتْرِ: أَلَا تَسْمَعُونَ مَا يَقُولُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ ؟ فَقُلْتُ: إِنَّكُنَّ صَوَاحِبَاتُ يُوسُفَ، إِذَا مَرِضَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَصَرْتُنَّ أَعْيُنَكُنَّ، وَإِذَا صَحَّ رَكَبْتُنَّ عُنُقَهُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: " دَعُوهُنَّ ؟ فَإِنَّهُنَّ خَيْرٌ مِنْكُمْ ".

✧ When the Prophet ﷺ fell ill, he said: "Bring me a sheet and an inkpot so I may write for you a document after which you will never go astray." We disliked that most intensely. Then he said: "Bring me a sheet so I may write for you a document after which you will never go astray." The women from behind the curtain said: "Do you not hear what the Messenger of God ﷺ is saying?" I said: "You are the companions of Joseph. When the Messenger of God ﷺ is ill, you wring your eyes, and when he is well, you ride his neck." The Messenger of God ﷺ said: "Leave them, for they are better than you."
