[2103] 11 - (905) It was narrated that Asmâ' said: "The sun was eclipsed at the time of the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ and I entered upon 'Aishah and found her praying. I said: 'Why are the people praying? And she gestured towards the sky with her head.' I said: 'Is it a sign?' She said: 'Yes.' The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ stood for a very long time, until I was about to faint. I took hold of a vessel of water that was by my side and started to pour it over my head or my face. No sooner had the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ finished praying but the sun became clear.
The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ addressed the people, praising and glorifying Allāh, then he said: 'There is nothing that I had not seen before but I saw it during this standing of mine, even Paradise and Hell. It was revealed to me that you will be tested in your graves with something close to - or like - the tribulation of the Dajjāl.'" - "I (the narrator) do not know which one Asmā' said." - "Someone will come to one of you and will say: "What do you know about this man?" The believer, or, the one who has certain faith'" - I do not know which one Asmā' said - "will say: "He is Muḥammad, he is the Messenger of Allāh; he came to us with clear signs and guidance, and we responded and obeyed, three times." Then it will be said to him: "Sleep, for we knew that you believed in him. Sleep the sleep of the righteous." As for the hypocrite or the doubter'" - I do not know which one Asmā' said - "he will say: "I do not know, I heard the people saying something so I said it."
