[Machine] Aisha used to say that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to Fatimah during his illness at the time of his death: "O my daughter, lean on me." So she leaned on him and whispered to him for a while, then she uncovered herself while she was crying, and Aisha was present. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said after that, after an hour: "Lean on me, O my daughter." So she leaned on him and whispered to him for an hour, then she uncovered herself and she laughed. Aisha said: So I said: O my daughter, tell me what your father whispered to you. So Fatimah said: Now he has whispered to me on a secret that I thought he was informing me of while he was alive, and it was difficult for Aisha that it should be a secret without her knowing it. So when Allah took him (in death), Aisha said to Fatimah: O my daughter, could you not tell me that secret? She said: As for now, he (Gabriel) has whispered to me on the first occasion that Gabriel used to dispute with him concerning the recitation of the Qur'an once every year, and he disputed with him concerning recitation of the Qur'an twice in the last year. And he informed me that he informed him that there is no Prophet but he lived half of the life of the Prophet before him. And he informed me that Jesus, son of Mary, lived for one hundred and twenty years, and I do not see myself except about to die at the beginning of sixty. So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ wept due to that and said: O my daughter, there is no Muslim woman who is more afflicted with adversity than you. So do not be inferior to any woman in patience. And he whispered to me on the second occasion and informed me that I am the first of his family to join him (in death). And he said: You are the mistress of the women of the people of Paradise, except that Maryam, daughter of 'Imran, was a virgin. So she laughed at that.
أَنَّ عَائِشَةَ كَانَتْ تَقُولُ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فِي مَرَضِهِ الَّذِي قُبِضَ فِيهِ قَالَ لِفَاطِمَةَ «يَا بُنَيَّةُ احْنِي عَلَيَّ» فَأَحْنَتْ عَلَيْهِ فَنَاجَاهَا سَاعَةً ثُمَّ انْكَشَفَتْ وَهِيَ تَبْكِي وَعَائِشَةُ حَاضِرَةٌ ثُمَّ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ بِسَاعَةٍ «احْنِي عَلَيَّ يَا بُنَيَّةُ» فَأَحْنَتْ عَلَيْهِ فَنَاجَاهَا سَاعَةً ثُمَّ انْكَشَفَتْ عَنْهُ فَضَحِكَتْ قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ فَقُلْتُ أَيْ بُنَيَّةُ أَخْبِرِينِي مَاذَا نَاجَاكِ أَبُوكِ؟ فَقَالَتْ فَاطِمَةُ نَاجَانِي عَلَى حَالٍ سِرٍّ ظَنَنْتِ أَنِّي أُخْبِرُ بِسِرِّهِ وَهُوَ حَيٌّ فَشَقَّ ذَلِكَ عَلَى عَائِشَةَ أَنْ يَكُونَ سِرًّا دُونَهَا فَلَمَّا قَبَضَهُ اللهُ قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ لِفَاطِمَةَ يَا بُنَيَّةُ أَلَا تُخْبِرينِي بِذَلِكَ الْخَبَرِ؟ قَالَتْ أَمَّا الْآنَ فَنَعَمْ نَاجَانِي فِي الْمَرَّةِ الْأُولَى فَأَخْبَرَنِي أَنَّ جِبْرِيلَ ﷺ كَانَ يُعَارِضُهُ بِالْقُرْآنِ فِي كُلِّ عَامٍ مَرَّةً وَأَنَّهُ عَارَضَهُ بِالْقُرْآنِ الْعَامَ مَرَّتَيْنِ وَأَخْبَرَنِي أَنَّهُ أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّهُ لَمْ يَكُنْ نَبِيٌّ إِلَّا عَاشَ نِصْفَ عُمَرَ الَّذِي قَبْلَهُ وَأَنَّهُ أَخْبَرَنِي أَنَّ عِيسَى ابْنَ مَرْيَمَ عَاشَ عِشْرِينَ وَماِئةَ سَنَةٍ وَلَا أُرَانِي إِلَّا ذَاهِبًا عَلَى رَأْسِ السِّتِّينَ فَأَبْكَانِي ذَلِكَ وَقَالَ «يَا بُنَيَّةُ إِنَّهُ لَيْسَ مِنْ نِسَاءِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ امْرَأَةٌ أَعْظَمُ رُزِّيَّةً مِنْكِ فَلَا تَكُونِي أَدْنَى مِنِ امْرَأَةٍ صَبْرًا» وَنَاجَانِي فِي الْمَرَّةِ الْآخِرَةِ فَأَخْبَرَنِي أَنِّي أَوَّلُ أَهْلِهِ لُحُوقًا بِهِ وَقَالَ «إِنَّكِ سَيِّدَةُ نِسَاءِ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ إِلَّا مَا كَانَ مِنَ الْبَتُولِ مَرْيَمَ بِنْتِ عِمْرَانَ» فَضَحِكَتُ بِذَلِكَ
