ذِكْرُ مَا خَاطَبَ الصِّدِّيقُ الْمُصْطَفَى ﷺ وَهُمَا فِي الْغَارِ
I said to the Prophet ﷺ when he was in the cave - on one occasion he said: when we were in the cave -: If one of them looks at his feet, he will see us beneath his feet. He said: ʿO Abu Bakr, what do you think of two, of whom Allah is the third?ʿ (Using translation from Aḥmad 11)
أَنَّ أَبَا بَكْرٍ ؓ حَدَّثَهُمْ قَالَ قُلْتُ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَنَحْنُ فِي الْغَارِ لَوْ أَرَادَ أَحَدُهُمْ أَنْ يَنْظُرَ إِلَى قَدَمَيْهِ لَأَبْصَرَنَا تَحْتَ قَدَمِهِ فَقَالَ ﷺ «مَا ظَنُّكَ بِاثْنَيْنِ اللَّهُ ثَالِثُهُمَا؟ »
