English translation
1055. 'Abdullāh bin Abī Mulaikah said: "Abdur-Raḥmān bin Abī Bakr died in Al-Ḥubshī"[1] He said: "He was carried to Makkah to be buried there. So when 'Āishah arrived she went to the grave of 'Abdur-Raḥmān bin Abī Bakr and she said: "We were like two drinking companions of Jadhīmah for such a long time that they would say: 'They will never part.' So when we were separated it was as if I and Mālik – due to the length of unity – never spent a night together."[1] (Da'if) Then she said: "By Allāh! Had I been present, you would not have been buried except where you died, and if I had attended (the burial) I would not be visiting you."
