Hadith of Fatimah, the paternal aunt of Abu Ubaydah, and sister of Hudhayfah (RA)
حديث فاطمة عمة أبي عبيدة، وأخت حذيفة
Hadith 1193:2
Muhammad ibn Ja‘far narrated to us, Shu‘bah narrated to us, from Husayn, from Abu ‘Ubaydah ibn Hudhayfah, from his paternal aunt Fatimah, that she said: We came to the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, to visit him among some women. There was a water skin hanging towards him, its water dripping upon him due to the intensity of what he was experiencing from the heat of the fever. We said: "O Messenger of Allah, if you were to call upon Allah, He would heal you." The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said: "Indeed, among the people most severely tested are the prophets, then those who are closest to them, then those who are closest to them, then those who are closest to them."
حدثنا محمد بن جعفر، حدثنا شعبة، عن حصين، عن أبي عبيدة بن حذيفة، عن عمته فاطمة أنها قالت: أتينا رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم نعوده في نساء، فإذا سقاء معلق نحوه يقطر ماؤه عليه من شدة ما يجد من حر الحمى، قلنا: يا رسول الله، لو دعوت الله فشفاك، فقال: رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: " إن من أشد الناس بلاء الأنبياء، ثم الذين يلونهم، ثم الذين يلونهم، ثم الذين يلونهم " ................................. .................................
