2741. Narrated Al-Aswad: In the presence of 'Āishah some people mentioned that the Prophet ﷺ had appointed 'Alī by will as his successor. 'Āishah said, "When did he appoint him by will? Verily, when he died he was resting against my chest (or said: in my lap) and he asked for a washbasin and then collapsed while in that state, and I could not even perceive that he had died, so when did he appoint him by will?"
2741 - حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ زُرَارَةَ، أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَوْنٍ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنِ الأَسْوَدِ، قَالَ: ذَكَرُوا عِنْدَ عَائِشَةَ أَنَّ عَلِيًّا رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا كَانَ وَصِيًّا، فَقَالَتْ: " مَتَى أَوْصَى إِلَيْهِ، وَقَدْ كُنْتُ مُسْنِدَتَهُ إِلَى صَدْرِي؟ - أَوْ قَالَتْ: حَجْرِي - فَدَعَا بِالطَّسْتِ، فَلَقَدْ انْخَنَثَ فِي حَجْرِي، فَمَا شَعَرْتُ أَنَّهُ قَدْ مَاتَ، فَمَتَى أَوْصَى إِلَيْهِ "
