566. Narrated 'Āishah رضي الله عنها: Allāh's Messenger ﷺ once delayed the Ishā' prayer and that was during the days when Islām 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 in the mosque: "None amongst the dwellers of the earth has been waiting for it (Ishā' prayer) except you."
566 - حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنْ عُقَيْلٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ، أَنَّ عَائِشَةَ أَخْبَرَتْهُ، قَالَتْ: أَعْتَمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَيْلَةً بِالعِشَاءِ، وَذَلِكَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَفْشُوَ الإِسْلاَمُ، فَلَمْ يَخْرُجْ حَتَّى قَالَ عُمَرُ: نَامَ النِّسَاءُ وَالصِّبْيَانُ، فَخَرَجَ، فَقَالَ لِأَهْلِ المَسْجِدِ: «مَا يَنْتَظِرُهَا أَحَدٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الأَرْضِ غَيْرَكُمْ»
