Arabic text

681 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مَعْمَرٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الوَارِثِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ العَزِيزِ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ: «لَمْ يَخْرُجِ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ثَلاَثًا»، فَأُقِيمَتِ الصَّلاَةُ، فَذَهَبَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ يَتَقَدَّمُ، فَقَالَ نَبِيُّ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «بِالحِجَابِ فَرَفَعَهُ، فَلَمَّا وَضَحَ وَجْهُ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، مَا نَظَرْنَا مَنْظَرًا كَانَ أَعْجَبَ إِلَيْنَا مِنْ وَجْهِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حِينَ وَضَحَ لَنَا، فَأَوْمَأَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِيَدِهِ إِلَى أَبِي بَكْرٍ أَنْ يَتَقَدَّمَ، وَأَرْخَى النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الحِجَابَ، فَلَمْ يُقْدَرْ عَلَيْهِ حَتَّى مَاتَ»
