أَخْبَرَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي الْعَلَائُ بْنُ هِلَالٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ عَنْ زَيْدٍ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ مُرَّةَ عَنْ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ مَسْرُوقِ بْنِ الْأَجْدَعِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ طَلَبْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ فِي فِرَاشِي فَلَمْ أُصِبْهُ فَضَرَبْتُ بِيَدِي عَلَی رَأْسِ الْفِرَاشِ فَوَقَعَتْ يَدِي عَلَی أَخْمَصِ قَدَمَيْهِ فَإِذَا هُوَ سَاجِدٌ يَقُولُ أَعُوذُ بِعَفْوِکَ مِنْ عِقَابِکَ وَأَعُوذُ بِرِضَاکَ مِنْ سَخَطِکَ وَأَعُوذُ بِکَ مِنْکَ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 5549
It was narrated that ‘Aishah said: “I looked for the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم one night in my bed, and I did not find him. I struck my hand on the head of the bed, and my hand fell on the soles of his feet. He was prostrating and saying:(I seek refuge in Your forgiveness from Your punishment, and I seek refuge in Your pleasure from Your wrath, and I seek refuge in You from You.)” (Hasan)
