Ayesha reported,

Shall I tell you about myself and the Prophet ﷺ?We said, "Yes, please."She said, "On my night with him, meaning the Prophet ﷺ, he turned in, placed his sandals by his feet, set down his cloak, and spread the edge of his lower garment on his bed. He waited only long enough for him to think I had fallen asleep, then he put on his sandals quietly, took his cloak quietly, opened the door quietly, went out, and closed it quietly behind him. I slipped my dress over my head, covered myself with a head-cover, and wrapped my waist-wrap around me, then I followed his trail until he reached al-Baqi. He raised his hands three times and stood for a long time. Then he turned to leave, so I turned. He hurried, so I hurried. He jogged, so I jogged. He ran, so I ran. I reached home before him and went inside, and I had barely lain down when he came in.He said, "What is the matter with you, Ayesha, breathless and panting?"I said, "Nothing."He said, "You will tell me, or the Subtle, the All-Aware, will tell me."I said, "Messenger of Allah, may my father and mother be ransomed for you," and I told him what had happened.He said, "So you were the dark figure I saw ahead of me?"I said, "Yes."She said, "He gave me a thrust in the chest that hurt me, then he said, 'Did you think that Allah and His Messenger would wrong you?'"She said, "Whatever people conceal, Allah knows it."He said, "Yes." He said, "Jibreel came to me when you saw what you saw. He would not enter upon you when you had taken off your garments, so he called out to me but kept hidden from you. I answered him but kept it hidden from you. I thought you had fallen asleep, and I did not want to wake you for fear you would feel lonely. He commanded me to go to the people of al-Baqi and seek forgiveness for them."Asim narrated it from Abdullah bin Amir from Ayesha with different wording.

حدثنا يوسف بن سعيد بن مسلم المصيصي قال حدثنا حجاج عن ابن جريج أخبرني عبد الله ابن أبي مليكة أنه سمع محمد بن قيس بن مخرمة يقول سمعت

عائشة تحدث قالت

ألا أحدثكم عني وعن النبي ﷺ قلنا بلى قالت لما كانت ليلتي التي هو عندي تعني النبي ﷺ انقلب فوضع نعليه عند رجليه ووضع رداءه وبسط طرف إزاره على فراشه فلم يلبث إلا ريثما ظن أني قد رقدت ثم انتعل رويدا وأخذ رداءه رويدا ثم فتح الباب رويدا وخرج وأجافه رويدا وجعلت درعي في رأسي واختمرت وتقنعت إزاري فانطلقت في إثره حتى جاء البقيع فرفع يديه ثلاث مرات وأطال القيام ثم انحرف فانحرفت فأسرع فأسرعت فهرول فهرولت فأحضر فأحضرت وسبقته فدخلت فليس إلا أن اضطجعت فدخل فقال ما لك يا عائشة حشيا رابية قالت لا قال لتخبرني أو ليخبرني اللطيف الخبير قلت يا رسول الله بأبي أنت وأمي فأخبرته الخبر قال فأنت السواد الذي رأيته أمامي قالت نعم قالت فلهدني في صدري لهدة أوجعتني ثم قال أظننت أن يحيف الله عليك ورسوله قالت مهما يكتم الناس فقد علمه الله قال نعم قال فإن جبريل عليه السلام أتاني حين رأيت ولم يكن يدخل عليك وقد وضعت ثيابك فناداني فأخفى منك فأجبته فأخفيت منك فظننت أن قد رقدت وخشيت أن تستوحشي فأمرني أن آتي أهل البقيع فأستغفر لهم رواه عاصم عن عبد الله بن عامر عن عائشة على غير هذا اللفظ
