حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ سَعِيدِ بْنِ يَحْيَى الرَّقِّيُّ ثنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ الرَّهَاوِيُّ ثنا أَبُو قَتَادَةَ الْحَرَّانِيُّ ثنا سُفْيَانُ الثَّوْرِيُّ عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ
كُنْتُ أَرَى رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يُقَبِّلُ فَاطِمَةَ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنِّي أَرَاكَ تَفْعَلُ شَيْئًا مَا كُنْتُ أَرَاكَ تَفْعَلُهُ مِنْ قَبْلُ فَقَالَ لِي «يَا حُمَيْرَاءُ إِنَّهُ لَمَّا كَانَ لَيْلَةَ أُسْرِيَ بِي إِلَى السَّمَاءِ أُدْخِلْتُ الْجَنَّةَ فَوَقَفْتُ عَلَى شَجَرَةٍ مِنْ شَجَرِ الْجَنَّةِ لَمْ أَرَى فِي الْجَنَّةِ شَجَرَةً هِيَ أَحْسَنُ مِنْهَا حُسْنًا وَلَا أَبْيَضَ مِنْهَا وَرَقَةً وَلَا أَطْيَبَ مِنْهَا ثَمَرَةً فَتَنَاوَلْتُ ثَمَرَةً مِنْ ثَمَرَتِهَا فَأَكَلْتُهَا فَصَارَتْ نُطْفَةً فِي صُلْبِي فَلَمَّا هَبَطْتُ الْأَرْضَ وَاقَعْتُ خَدِيجَةَ فَحَمَلَتْ بِفَاطِمَةَ فَإِذَا أَنَا اشْتَقْتُ إِلَى رَائِحَةِ الْجَنَّةِ شَمَمْتُ رِيحَ فَاطِمَةَ يَا حُمَيْرَاءُ إِنَّ فَاطِمَةَ لَيْسَتْ كَنِسَاءِ الْآدَمِيِّينَ وَلَا تَعْتَلُّ كَمَا يَعْتَلُّونَ»

✧ I used to see the Messenger of God ﷺ kissing Fatimah, so I said: O Messenger of God, I see you doing something I did not see you do before. He said to me: O Humayra, when I was taken on the night journey to heaven, I was admitted into Paradise and stood by a tree of the trees of Paradise. I had not seen in Paradise a tree more beautiful than it, nor whiter leaves, nor better fruit. I took a fruit from its fruit and ate it, and it became a drop in my loins. When I descended to earth, I had intercourse with Khadijah, and she conceived Fatimah. So when I long for the scent of Paradise, I smell the fragrance of Fatimah. O Humayra, Fatimah is not like the women of human beings, nor does she suffer illness as they suffer.
