حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ وَوَكِيعٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ . ح وحَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنِ الْأَسْوَدِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَتْ:‏‏‏‏ لَمَّا مَرِضَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَرَضَهُ الَّذِي مَاتَ فِيهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَقَالَ أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ:‏‏‏‏ لَمَّا ثَقُلَ جَاءَ بِلَالٌ يُؤْذِنُهُ بِالصَّلَاةِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ مُرُوا أَبَا بَكْرٍ فَلْيُصَلِّ بِالنَّاسِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قُلْنَا:‏‏‏‏ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏إِنَّ أَبَا بَكْرٍ رَجُلٌ أَسِيفٌ تَعْنِي:‏‏‏‏ رَقِيقٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَمَتَى مَا يَقُومُ مَقَامَكَ يَبْكِي، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَلَا يَسْتَطِيعُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَلَوْ أَمَرْتَ عُمَرَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَصَلَّى بِالنَّاسِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ مُرُوا أَبَا بَكْرٍ فَلْيُصَلِّ بِالنَّاسِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَإِنَّكُنَّ صَوَاحِبَاتُ يُوسُفَ ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَتْ:‏‏‏‏ فَأَرْسَلْنَا إِلَى أَبِي بَكْرٍ فَصَلَّى بِالنَّاسِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ فَوَجَدَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنْ نَفْسِهِ خِفَّةً، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَخَرَجَ إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ يُهَادَى بَيْنَ رَجُلَيْنِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَرِجْلَاهُ تَخُطَّانِ فِي الْأَرْضِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَلَمَّا أَحَسَّ بِهِ أَبُو بَكْرٍ ذَهَبَ لِيَتَأَخَّرَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَأَوْمَى إِلَيْهِ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ مَكَانَكَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ فَجَاءَ حَتَّى أَجْلَسَاهُ إِلَى جَنْبِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَكَانَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ يَأْتَمُّ بِالنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَالنَّاسُ يَأْتَمُّونَ بِأَبِي بَكْرٍ .

“When the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) fell ill with the sickness that would be his last” – (One of the narrators) Abu Mu’awiyah said: “When he was overcome by sickness” – “Bilal رضی اللہ عنہ came to tell him that it was time for prayer. He said, ‘Tell Abu Bakr رضی اللہ عنہ to lead the people in prayer.’ We said: ‘O Messenger of Allah! Abu Bakr رضی اللہ عنہ is a tender-hearted man, and when he takes your place he will weep and not be able to do it. Why do you not tell ‘Umar رضی اللہ عنہ to lead the people in prayer?’ He said: ‘Tell Abu Bakr رضی اللہ عنہ to lead the people in prayer; you are (like) the female companions of Yusuf.’” She said: “So we sent word to Abu Bakr رضی اللہ عنہ, and he led the people in prayer. Then the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) began to feel a little better, so he came out to the prayer, supported by two men with his feet making lines along the ground. When Abu Bakr رضی اللہ عنہ realized that he was there, he wanted to step back, but the Prophet (ﷺ) gestured to him to stay where he was. Then (the two men) brought him to sit beside Abu Bakr رضی اللہ عنہ , and Abu Bakr رضی اللہ عنہ was following the lead of the Prophet (ﷺ) and the people were following Abu Bakr رضی اللہ عنہ .”
