حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا أَيُّوبُ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ قَالَ: قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ: مَاتَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي بَيْتِي، وَيَوْمِي، وَبَيْنَ سَحْرِي ونَحْرِي، فَدَخَلَ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ أَبِي بَكْرٍ وَمَعَهُ سِوَاكٌ رَطْبٌ، فَنَظَرَ إِلَيْهِ، فَظَنَنْتُ أَنَّ لَهُ فِيهِ حَاجَةً، قَالَتْ: فَأَخَذْتُهُ فَمَضَغْتُهُ، ونَفَضْتُهُ وَطَيَّبْتُهُ، ثُمَّ دَفَعْتُهُ إِلَيْهِ، فَاسْتَنَّ كَأَحْسَنِ مَا رَأَيْتُهُ، ، مُسْتَنًّا قَطُّ، ثُمَّ ذَهَبَ يَرْفَعُهُ (١) إِلَيَّ، فَسَقَطَ مِنْ يَدِهِ، فَأَخَذْتُ أَدْعُو اللهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ بِدُعَاءٍ، كَانَ يَدْعُو لَهُ بِهِ جِبْرِيلُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ، وَكَانَ هُوَ يَدْعُو بِهِ إِذَا مَرِضَ، فَلَمْ يَدْعُ بِهِ فِي مَرَضِهِ ذَلِكَ، (٢) فَرَفَعَ بَصَرَهُ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ، وَقَالَ: " الرَّفِيقُ الْأَعْلَى، الرَّفِيقُ الْأَعْلَى (٣) "، يَعْنِي وَفَاضَتْ نَفْسُهُ، فَالْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي جَمَعَ بَيْنَ رِيقِي وَرِيقِهِ فِي آخِرِ يَوْمٍ مِنْ أَيَّامِ (٤) الدُّنْيَا " (٥)، ،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Prophet (ﷺ) departed from this world in my house, on the day of my turn, between my chest and throat. That day, Abdur Rahman bin Abi Bakr came, and in his hand was a fresh miswak. The Prophet (ﷺ) used the miswak with such excellence that I had never seen him use it in that manner before. Then the Prophet (ﷺ) raised his hand to give it to me, but the miswak fell from his hand. Seeing this, I began to recite those supplications which Jibreel (peace be upon him) used to recite at the time of the Prophet’s (ﷺ) illness, but on this occasion, he had not recited those supplications. Meanwhile, the Prophet (ﷺ) raised his gaze towards the sky and said, "The Highest Companion, the Highest Companion," and at that very moment, the blessed soul of the Prophet (ﷺ) departed. In every situation, all praise is due to Allah, who united my saliva with that of the Prophet (ﷺ) on the last day of his life.
