قَالَ فَدَخَلَتْ أَسْمَاءُ بِنْتُ عُمَيْسٍ، وَهِيَ مِمَّنْ قَدِمَ مَعَنَا، عَلَى حَفْصَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ زَائِرَةً، وَقَدْ كَانَتْ هَاجَرَتْ إِلَى النَّجَاشِيِّ فِيمَنْ هَاجَرَ إِلَيْهِ، فَدَخَلَ عُمَرُ عَلَى حَفْصَةَ، وَأَسْمَاءُ عِنْدَهَا، فَقَالَ عُمَرُ حِينَ رَأَى أَسْمَاءَ: مَنْ هَذِهِ؟ قَالَتْ: أَسْمَاءُ بِنْتُ عُمَيْسٍ، قَالَ عُمَرُ: الْحَبَشِيَّةُ هَذِهِ؟ الْبَحْرِيَّةُ هَذِهِ؟ فَقَالَتْ أَسْمَاءُ: نَعَمْ، فَقَالَ عُمَرُ: سَبَقْنَاكُمْ بِالْهِجْرَةِ، فَنَحْنُ أَحَقُّ بِرَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنْكُمْ، فَغَضِبَتْ، وَقَالَتْ كَلِمَةً: كَذَبْتَ يَا عُمَرُ كَلَّا، وَاللهِ كُنْتُمْ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُطْعِمُ جَائِعَكُمْ، وَيَعِظُ جَاهِلَكُمْ، وَكُنَّا فِي دَارِ، أَوْ فِي أَرْضِ الْبُعَدَاءِ الْبُغَضَاءِ فِي الْحَبَشَةِ، وَذَلِكَ فِي اللهِ وَفِي رَسُولِهِ، وَايْمُ اللهِ لَا أَطْعَمُ طَعَامًا وَلَا أَشْرَبُ شَرَابًا حَتَّى أَذْكُرَ مَا قُلْتَ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَنَحْنُ كُنَّا نُؤْذَى وَنُخَافُ، وَسَأَذْكُرُ ذَلِكَ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَأَسْأَلُهُ، وَوَاللهِ لَا أَكْذِبُ وَلَا أَزِيغُ وَلَا أَزِيدُ عَلَى ذَلِكَ، قَالَ: فَلَمَّا جَاءَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَتْ: يَا نَبِيَّ اللهِ إِنَّ عُمَرَ قَالَ: كَذَا وَكَذَا، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «لَيْسَ بِأَحَقَّ بِي مِنْكُمْ، وَلَهُ وَلِأَصْحَابِهِ هِجْرَةٌ وَاحِدَةٌ، وَلَكُمْ أَنْتُمْ، أَهْلَ السَّفِينَةِ، هِجْرَتَانِ» قَالَتْ: فَلَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ أَبَا مُوسَى وَأَصْحَابَ السَّفِينَةِ يَأْتُونِي أَرْسَالًا، يَسْأَلُونِي عَنْ هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ، مَا مِنَ الدُّنْيَا شَيْءٌ هُمْ بِهِ أَفْرَحُ وَلَا أَعْظَمُ فِي أَنْفُسِهِمْ مِمَّا قَالَ لَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ. قَالَ أَبُو بُرْدَةَ: فَقَالَتْ أَسْمَاءُ: فَلَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ أَبَا مُوسَى، وَإِنَّهُ لَيَسْتَعِيدُ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ مِنِّي.

Asma' bint 'Umais رضی اللہ عنہا who had migrated to Abyssinia and had come back along with them (along with immigrants) visited Hafsa رضی اللہ عنہا , the wife of Allah's Apostle ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ). (Accordingly), Umarv رضی اللہ عنہ had been sitting with her (Hafsa). As 'Umar رضی اللہ عنہ saw Asma رضی اللہ عنہا, he said: Who is she? She (Hafsa رضی اللہ عنہا ) said: She is Asma, daughter of 'Umais. He said: She is an Abyssinian and a sea-woman. Asma رضی اللہ عنہا said: Yes, it is so. Thereupon 'Umar said: We preceded you in migration and so we have more right to Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) as compared with you. At this she felt annoyed and said: 'Umar رضی اللہ عنہ, you are not stating the fact; by Allah, you had the privilege of being in the company of the Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) who fed the hungry among you and instructed the ignorant amongst you, whereas we had been far (from here) in the land of Abyssinia amongst the enemies and that was all for Allah and Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) and, by Allah, I would never take food nor take water unless I make a mention to Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) of what you have said. We remained in that country in constant trouble and dread and I shall talk about it to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and ask him (about it). By Allah, I shall not tell a lie and deviate (from the truth) and add anything to that. So, when Allah's Apostle ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) came, she said: Allah's Apostle, 'Umar رضی اللہ عنہا says so and so. Upon this Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) said: His right is not more than yours, for him and his companions there is one migration, but for you, i.e. for the people of the boat, there are two migrations. She said: I saw Abu Musa رضی اللہ عنہ and the people of the boat coming to me in groups and asking me about this hadith, because there was nothing more pleasing and more significant for them than this. Abu Burda reported that Asma رضی اللہ عنہا said: I saw Abu Musa رضی اللہ عنہ, asking me to repeat this hadith to him again and again.
