4691. Narrated Umm Rūmān who was ‘Aishah’s mother: While I was with ‘Aishah, ‘Aishah got fever, whereupon the Prophet ﷺ said, “Probably her fever is caused by the story related by the people (about her).” I said, “Yes.” Then ‘Aishah sat up and said, “My example and your example is similar to that of Yaqūb (Jacob) and his sons: “...Nay, but your own selves have made up a tale. So (for me), patience is most fitting. And it is Allāh (Alone) Whose help can be sought against that (lie) which you describe.” (V.12:18)

4691 - حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ، عَنْ حُصَيْنٍ، عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي مَسْرُوقُ بْنُ الأَجْدَعِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَتْنِي أُمُّ رُومَانَ وَهْيَ أُمُّ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ: بَيْنَا أَنَا وَعَائِشَةُ أَخَذَتْهَا الحُمَّى، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: « لَعَلَّ فِي حَدِيثٍ تُحُدِّثَ» قَالَتْ: نَعَمْ، وَقَعَدَتْ عَائِشَةُ، قَالَتْ: مَثَلِي وَمَثَلُكُمْ كَيَعْقُوبَ وَبَنِيهِ، {بَلْ سَوَّلَتْ لَكُمْ أَنْفُسُكُمْ أَمْرًا فَصَبْرٌ جَمِيلٌ، وَاللَّهُ المُسْتَعَانُ عَلَى مَا تَصِفُونَ} [يوسف: 18]
