أَخْبَرَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ حُجْرٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَعِيلُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا شَرِيکٌ وَهُوَ ابْنُ أَبِي نَمِرٍ عَنْ عَطَائٍ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ کَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ کُلَّمَا کَانَتْ لَيْلَتُهَا مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَخْرُجُ فِي آخِرِ اللَّيْلِ إِلَی الْبَقِيعِ فَيَقُولُ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْکُمْ دَارَ قَوْمٍ مُؤْمِنِينَ وَإِنَّا وَإِيَّاکُمْ مُتَوَاعِدُونَ غَدًا أَوْ مُوَاکِلُونَ وَإِنَّا إِنْ شَائَ اللَّهُ بِکُمْ لَاحِقُونَ اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِأَهْلِ بَقِيعِ الْغَرْقَدِ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 2045
It was narrated that ‘Aishah said that every time it was her night for the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم to stay with her, he would go out at the end of the night to Al-Baqi’ and say: “ (Peace be upon you, 0 abode of believing people. You and we used to remind one another about the Day of Resurrection and we are relying on one another (with regard to intercession and bearing witness)Soon we will join you, if Allah willing. Allah, forgive the people of Baqi’ Al Gharqad.)” (Sahih)
