Hadith #566
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنْ عُقَيْلٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ، أَنَّ عَائِشَةَ، أَخْبَرَتْهُ قَالَتْ، أَعْتَمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم لَيْلَةً بِالْعِشَاءِ، وَذَلِكَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَفْشُوَ الإِسْلاَمُ، فَلَمْ يَخْرُجْ حَتَّى قَالَ عُمَرُ نَامَ النِّسَاءُ وَالصِّبْيَانُ. فَخَرَجَ فَقَالَ لأَهْلِ الْمَسْجِدِ
" مَا يَنْتَظِرُهَا أَحَدٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الأَرْضِ غَيْرُكُمْ ".
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) once delayed the `Isha' prayer and that was during the days when Islam still had not
spread. The Prophet (ﷺ) did not come out till `Umar informed him that the women and children had slept.
Then he came out and said to the people of the mosque: "None amongst the dwellers of the earth has
been waiting for it (`Isha prayer) except you."
