[1443] 218 - (638) Urwah bin Az-Zubair narrated that 'Aishah, the wife of the Prophet ﷺ, said: "One night the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ delayed the 'Ishâ' prayer, the one that is called 'Al-'Atamah,' until it was very dark. The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ did not come out until 'Umar bin Al-Khaṭṭâb said: 'The women and children have fallen asleep.' Then the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ came out, and he said to the people in the Masjid when he came out to them: 'None of the people of earth are waiting for it except you.' That was before Islam had spread among the people." Harmalah added in his report: Ibn Shihâb said: "It was said to me that the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: 'And you should not try to compel the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ to pray. That was when 'Umar bin Al-Khaṭṭâb called out.'"

218 - (638) وَحَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ سَوَّادٍ الْعَامِرِيُّ، وَحَرْمَلَةُ بْنُ يَحْيَى، قَالَا: أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ، أَخْبَرَنِي يُونُسُ، أَنَّ ابْنَ شِهَابٍ، أَخْبَرَهُ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي عُرْوَةُ بْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ، أَنَّ عَائِشَةَ، زَوْجَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَتْ: أَعْتَمَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَيْلَةً مِنَ اللَّيَالِي بِصَلَاةِ الْعِشَاءِ، وَهِيَ الَّتِي تُدْعَى الْعَتَمَةَ، فَلَمْ يَخْرُجْ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَتَّى قَالَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ: نَامَ النِّسَاءُ وَالصِّبْيَانُ، فَخَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ لِأَهْلِ الْمَسْجِدِ حِينَ خَرَجَ عَلَيْهِمْ: «مَا يَنْتَظِرُهَا أَحَدٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْأَرْضِ غَيْرُكُمْ»، وَذَلِكَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَفْشُوَ الْإِسْلَامُ فِي النَّاسِ زَادَ حَرْمَلَةُ فِي رِوَايَتِهِ، قَالَ ابْنُ شِهَابٍ: وَذُكِرَ لِي أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ: وَمَا كَانَ لَكُمْ أَنَّ تَنْزُرُوا رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَى الصَّلَاةِ، وَذَاكَ حِينَ صَاحَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ،
