Hadith of Umm Salamah (RA), the wife of the Prophet (SAW)
حديث أم سلمة زوج النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم
Hadith 1156:37
Abdullah ibn Numayr narrated to us, he said: Abd al-Malik—meaning Ibn Abi Sulayman—narrated to us, from Ata’ ibn Abi Rabah, he said: Someone who heard Umm Salamah narrated to me, mentioning that the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, was in her house. Fatimah came to him with a pot containing *khazirah* (a dish made of meat and flour), and she entered with it to him. He said to her: "Call your husband and your two sons." She said: So Ali, al-Husayn, and al-Hasan came, and they entered upon him. They sat eating from that *khazirah*, while he was on a sleeping place of his upon a dais, beneath which was a Khaybari cloak. She said: And I was praying in the chamber, then Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, revealed this verse: "Allah only intends to remove from you the impurity, O people of the [Prophet's] household, and to purify you with [extensive] purification" [Al-Ahzab: 33]. She said: So he took the remainder of the cloak and covered them with it. Then he brought out his hand and gestured with it toward the sky, then said: "O Allah, these are the people of my household and my special ones, so remove from them the impurity and purify them with purification. O Allah, these are the people of my household and my special ones, so remove from them the impurity and purify them with purification." She said: So I put my head into the house and said: "And am I with you, O Messenger of Allah?" He said: "You are upon good, you are upon good." Abd al-Malik said: And Abu Layla narrated to me, from Umm Salamah, the like of the hadith of Ata’, exactly. Abd al-Malik said: And Dawud ibn Abi Awf Abu al-Jahhaf narrated to me, from Shahr ibn Hawshab, from Umm Salamah, the like of it, exactly.
حدثنا عبد الله بن نمير، قال: حدثنا عبد الملك يعني ابن أبي سليمان، عن عطاء بن أبي رباح، قال: حدثني من سمع أم سلمة، تذكر أن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم كان في بيتها، فأتته فاطمة ببرمة، فيها خزيرة، فدخلت بها عليه، فقال لها: " ادعي زوجك وابنيك " قالت: فجاء علي، والحسين، والحسن، فدخلوا عليه، فجلسوا يأكلون من تلك الخزيرة، وهو على منامة له على دكان تحته كساء خيبري . قالت: وأنا أصلي في الحجرة، فأنزل الله عز وجل هذه الآية: {إنما يريد الله ليذهب عنكم الرجس أهل البيت ويطهركم تطهيرا} [الأحزاب: 33] قالت: فأخذ فضل الكساء، فغشاهم به، ثم أخرج يده، فألوى بها إلى السماء، ثم قال: " اللهم هؤلاء أهل بيتي وخاصتي ، فأذهب عنهم الرجس، وطهرهم تطهيرا، اللهم هؤلاء أهل بيتي وخاصتي ، فأذهب عنهم الرجس، وطهرهم تطهيرا " قالت: فأدخلت رأسي البيت، فقلت: وأنا معكم يا رسول الله، قال: " إنك إلى خير، إنك إلى خير " قال عبد الملك، وحدثني أبو ليلى، عن أم سلمة، مثل حديث عطاء، سواء قال: عبد الملك، وحدثني داود بن أبي عوف أبو الجحاف، عن شهر ابن حوشب، عن أم سلمة بمثله سواء . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
