حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ حَدَّثَنِي مَالِکٌ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ الْقَاسِمِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ جَائَ أَبُو بَکْرٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ وَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَاضِعٌ رَأْسَهُ عَلَی فَخِذِي فَقَالَ حَبَسْتِ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَالنَّاسَ وَلَيْسُوا عَلَی مَائٍ فَعَاتَبَنِي وَجَعَلَ يَطْعُنُ بِيَدِهِ فِي خَاصِرَتِي وَلَا يَمْنَعُنِي مِنْ التَّحَرُّکِ إِلَّا مَکَانُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ آيَةَ التَّيَمُّمِ
صحیح بخاری · Hadith 6844
Narrated `Aisha: Abu Bakr came to me while Allah's Apostle was sleeping with his head on my thigh. Abu Bakr said (to me), "You have detained Allah's Apostle and the people, and there is no water in this place." So he admonished me and struck my flanks with his hand, and nothing could stop me from moving except the reclining of Allah's Apostle (on my thigh), and then Allah revealed the Divine Verse of Tayammum.
