3558. Mu'ādḥ bin Rifā'ah narrated from his father, that he said: "Abū Bakr stood upon the Minbar, then wept, and said: 'The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ stood upon the Minbar the first year (of Hijrah), then wept, and said: "Ask Allāh for pardon and Al-'Āfiyah, for verily, none has been given anything better than Al-'Āfiyah.'" (Saḥīḥ) [Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Hasan Gharīb through this route from Abū Bakr [may Allāh be pleased with him].

٣٥٥٨ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌أَبُو عَامِرٍ الْعَقَدِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌زُهَيْرٌ، وَهُوَ ابْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ ، عَنْ ‌عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَقِيلٍ: أَنَّ ‌مُعَاذَ بْنَ رِفَاعَةَ أَخْبَرَهُ عَنْ ‌أَبِيهِ قَالَ: «قَامَ ‌أَبُو بَكْرٍ الصِّدِّيقُ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ، ثُمَّ بَكَى، فَقَالَ: قَامَ رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - عَامَ الْأَوَّلِ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ، ثُمَّ بَكَى، فَقَالَ: اسْأَلُوا اللهَ الْعَفْوَ» وَالْعَافِيَةَ، فَإِنَّ أَحَدًا لَمْ يُعْطَ بَعْدَ الْيَقِينِ خَيْرًا مِنَ الْعَافِيَةِ. وَهَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ مِنْ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرٍ.

Commentary

Abū Bakr wept while standing on the Minbar (pulpit) recalling the weeping of the Prophet ﷺ while standing on the same Minbar. The Prophet wept for the sake of his Ummah's sins and foreseeing the worsening conditions of Ummah.
