I came in to see Ayesha, may Allah be pleased with her, while the people were praying. I asked, "What is the matter with the people?"She gestured with her head toward the sky.I said, "Is it a sign?"She nodded with her head, meaning yes.She said, "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ prolonged the prayer so much that I was overcome with faintness. Beside me was a waterskin containing water, so I opened it and began to pour some of it over my head. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ finished the prayer after the sun had become clear, then he addressed the people. He praised Allah as He deserves to be praised, then said, 'To proceed.'"She said, "Some women of the Ansar began chattering, so I turned toward them to silence them."I asked Ayesha, "What did he say?"She replied, "He said, 'There is nothing I had not been shown before that I have not now seen from this place of mine, even Paradise and Hellfire. It has been revealed to me that you will be tested in your graves with a trial similar, or close, to the trial of the False Messiah, the Dajjal. Each of you will be brought, and it will be said to him, "What do you know about this man?" As for the believer,' or he said, 'the one of certainty,' Hisham was uncertain which, 'he will say, "He is the Messenger of Allah, he is Muhammad ﷺ. He came to us with clear proofs and guidance, so we believed, responded, followed, and affirmed his truthfulness." It will be said to him, "Sleep righteously. We already knew that you were a believer in him." But as for the hypocrite,' or he said, 'the doubter,' Hisham was uncertain which, 'it will be said to him, "What do you know about this man?" He will say, "I do not know. I heard the people saying something, so I said it too."'"Hisham said, "Fatimah related this to me and I retained it, except that she mentioned something more severe against him."
وقال محمود حدثنا أبو أسامة، قال حدثنا هشام بن عروة، قال أخبرتني فاطمة بنت المنذر،
دخلت على عائشة رضى الله عنها والناس يصلون قلت ما شأن الناس فأشارت برأسها إلى السماء. فقلت آية فأشارت برأسها أى نعم. قالت فأطال رسول الله ﷺ جدا حتى تجلاني الغشى وإلى جنبي قربة فيها ماء ففتحتها فجعلت أصب منها على رأسي، فانصرف رسول الله ﷺ وقد تجلت الشمس، فخطب الناس، وحمد الله بما هو أهله ثم قال أما بعد. قالت ولغط نسوة من الأنصار، فانكفأت إليهن لأسكتهن فقلت لعائشة ما قال قالت قال ما من شىء لم أكن أريته إلا قد رأيته في مقامي هذا حتى الجنة والنار، وإنه قد أوحي إلى أنكم تفتنون في القبور مثل أو قريب من فتنة المسيح الدجال، يؤتى أحدكم، فيقال له ما علمك بهذا الرجل فأما المؤمن أو قال الموقن شك هشام فيقول هو رسول الله، هو محمد ﷺ جاءنا بالبينات والهدى فآمنا وأجبنا واتبعنا وصدقنا. فيقال له نم صالحا، قد كنا نعلم إن كنت لتؤمن به. وأما المنافق أو قال المرتاب شك هشام فيقال له ما علمك بهذا الرجل فيقول لا أدري، سمعت الناس يقولون شيئا فقلته. قال هشام فلقد قالت لي فاطمة فأوعيته، غير أنها ذكرت ما يغلظ عليه.
