Hadith #4753
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي حُسَيْنٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي ابْنُ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ، قَالَ اسْتَأْذَنَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ قَبْلَ مَوْتِهَا عَلَى عَائِشَةَ، وَهْىَ مَغْلُوبَةٌ قَالَتْ أَخْشَى أَنْ يُثْنِيَ عَلَىَّ. فَقِيلَ ابْنُ عَمِّ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَمِنْ وُجُوهِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ. قَالَتِ ائْذَنُوا لَهُ. فَقَالَ كَيْفَ تَجِدِينَكِ قَالَتْ بِخَيْرٍ إِنِ اتَّقَيْتُ. قَالَ فَأَنْتِ بِخَيْرٍ ـ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ ـ زَوْجَةُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَلَمْ يَنْكِحْ بِكْرًا غَيْرَكِ، وَنَزَلَ عُذْرُكِ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ. وَدَخَلَ ابْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ خِلاَفَهُ فَقَالَتْ دَخَلَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ فَأَثْنَى عَلَىَّ وَوَدِدْتُ أَنِّي كُنْتُ نِسْيًا مَنْسِيًّا.
Ibn `Abbas asked permission to visit Aisha before her death, and at that time she was in a state of
agony. She then said. "I am afraid that he will praise me too much." And then it was said to her, "He is
the cousin of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and one of the prominent Muslims." Then she said, "Allow him to
enter." (When he entered) he said, "How are you?" She replied, "I am Alright if I fear (Allah)." Ibn
`Abbas said, "Allah willing, you are Alright as you are the wife of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and he did not
marry any virgin except you and proof of your innocence was revealed from the Heaven." Later on
Ibn Az-Zubair entered after him and `Aisha said to him, "Ibn `Abbas came to me and praised me
greatly, but I wish that I was a thing forgotten and out of sight."
