Chapter: The Ghazwa of Al-‘Ushaira or Al-usaira

حَدَّثَنَا بِشْرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، قَالَ يُونُسُ قَالَ الزُّهْرِيُّ أَخْبَرَنِي سَعِيدُ بْنُ الْمُسَيَّبِ، فِي رِجَالٍ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ أَنَّ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُ وَهْوَ صَحِيحٌ ‏”‏ إِنَّهُ لَمْ يُقْبَضْ نَبِيٌّ حَتَّى يَرَى مَقْعَدَهُ مِنَ الْجَنَّةِ، ثُمَّ يُخَيَّرَ ‏”‏‏.‏ فَلَمَّا نَزَلَ بِهِ وَرَأْسُهُ عَلَى فَخِذِي غُشِيَ عَلَيْهِ، ثُمَّ أَفَاقَ، فَأَشْخَصَ بَصَرَهُ إِلَى سَقْفِ الْبَيْتِ ثُمَّ قَالَ ‏”‏ اللَّهُمَّ الرَّفِيقَ الأَعْلَى ‏”‏‏.‏ فَقُلْتُ إِذًا لاَ يَخْتَارُنَا‏.‏ وَعَرَفْتُ أَنَّهُ الْحَدِيثُ الَّذِي كَانَ يُحَدِّثُنَا وَهْوَ صَحِيحٌ قَالَتْ فَكَانَتْ آخِرَ كَلِمَةٍ تَكَلَّمَ بِهَا ‏”‏ اللَّهُمَّ الرَّفِيقَ الأَعْلَى ‏”‏‏.‏

Narrated `Aisha: When the Prophet (ﷺ) was healthy, he used to say, “No soul of a prophet is captured till he is shown his
place in Paradise and then he is given the option.” When death approached him while his head was on
my thigh, he became unconscious and then recovered his consciousness. He then looked at the ceiling
of the house and said, “O Allah! (with) the highest companions.” I said (to myself), “Hence, he is not
going to choose us.” Then I realized that what he had said was the application of the narration which
he used to mention to us when he was healthy. The last word he spoke was, “O Allah! (with) the
highest companion.”
