Jami' at-Tirmidhi — Hadith #29849

Al-Hasan bin Sabbah Al-Bazzar told us, he said, Zaid bin Hubab told us, on the authority of Kharijah bin Abdullah bin Sulayman bin Zayd bin Thabit, he said Yazid bin Ruman told us, on the authority of Urwa, on the authority of Aisha, who said: The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, was sitting, and we heard confusion and the voice of two boys. Then the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, stood up and saw an Ethiopian woman being buried and the boys around her. He said, “O Aisha, Almighty, then look.” So I came. So I placed Hayya on the shoulder of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, and I looked at her from between the shoulder to his head, and he said to me, “Are you not satisfied? “Are you not satisfied?” She said, “So I started saying, ‘No,’ so that I might see my status with him, when ‘Umar came up.’ He said, ‘and the people rejected her.’ She said, ‘So the Messenger of God said, May God’s prayers and peace be upon him, “I am looking at the devils of mankind and the jinn who have fled from ‘Umar.” She said, “I returned.” Abu Issa said, “This is a hadith.” It is good, true, and strange in this respect.
