English translation

[947] 100 - (...) It was narrated that Anas said: "The Prophet of Allāh ﷺ did not come out to us for three days. Then the Iqāmah was called and Abū Bakr went forward (to lead the prayer). The Prophet of Allāh ﷺ lifted the curtain, and when the face of the Prophet of Allāh ﷺ appeared to us, there was nothing more dear to us than the face of the Prophet ﷺ appearing to us. The Prophet of Allāh ﷺ gestured to Abū Bakr to go forward, then the Prophet of Allāh ﷺ drew the curtain and we did not see him until he died."

Arabic text

100 - (419) حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، وَهَارُونُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الصَّمَدِ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ أَبِي، يُحَدِّثُ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، قَالَ: لَمْ يَخْرُجْ إِلَيْنَا نَبِيُّ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ثَلَاثًا فَأُقِيمَتِ الصَّلَاةُ، فَذَهَبَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ يَتَقَدَّمُ فَقَالَ: " نَبِيُّ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِالْحِجَابِ فَرَفَعَهُ، فَلَمَّا وَضَحَ لَنَا وَجْهُ نَبِيِّ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، مَا نَظَرْنَا مَنْظَرًا قَطُّ، كَانَ أَعْجَبَ إِلَيْنَا مِنْ وَجْهِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حِينَ وَضَحَ لَنَا، قَالَ: «فَأَوْمَأَ نَبِيُّ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِيَدِهِ إِلَى أَبِي بَكْرٍ أَنْ يَتَقَدَّمَ، وَأَرْخَى نَبِيُّ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الْحِجَابَ فَلَمْ نَقْدِرْ عَلَيْهِ حَتَّى مَاتَ»
