Sahih al-Bukhari 5666 (Book 75, Hadith 26) #5440
Trusting in Allah's Will

SUMMARY: The hadith is about the Prophet Muhammad's (PBUH) concern for Aisha and his wish to be able to help her if she was ill while he was still alive. He also expresses his trust in Allah's will and the Muslims' loyalty.

Narrated Al-Qasim bin Muhammad: 'Aisha, (complaining of headache) said, "Oh, my head"! Allah's Messenger said, "I wish that had happened while I was still living, for then I would ask Allah's Forgiveness for you and invoke Allah for you". Aisha said, "Wa thuklayah! By Allah, I think you want me to die; and If this should happen, you would spend the last part of the day sleeping with one of your wives!" The Prophet said, "Nay, I should say, 'Oh my head!' I felt like sending for Abu Bakr and his son, and appoint him as my successor lest some people claimed something or some others wished something, but then I said (to myself), 'Allah would not allow it to be otherwise, and the Muslims would prevent it to be otherwise".
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى أَبُو زَكَرِيَّاءَ، أَخْبَرَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ بِلاَلٍ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ الْقَاسِمَ بْنَ مُحَمَّدٍ، قَالَ قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ وَارَأْسَاهْ‏.‏ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏"‏ ذَاكِ لَوْ كَانَ وَأَنَا حَىٌّ، فَأَسْتَغْفِرُ لَكِ وَأَدْعُو لَكِ ‏"‏‏.‏ فَقَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ وَاثُكْلِيَاهْ، وَاللَّهِ إِنِّي لأَظُنُّكَ تُحِبُّ مَوْتِي، وَلَوْ كَانَ ذَاكَ لَظَلِلْتَ آخِرَ يَوْمِكَ مُعَرِّسًا بِبَعْضِ أَزْوَاجِكَ‏.‏ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ‏"‏ بَلْ أَنَا وَارَأْسَاهْ لَقَدْ هَمَمْتُ أَوْ أَرَدْتُ أَنْ أُرْسِلَ إِلَى أَبِي بَكْرٍ وَابْنِهِ، وَأَعْهَدَ أَنْ يَقُولَ الْقَائِلُونَ أَوْ يَتَمَنَّى الْمُتَمَنُّونَ، ثُمَّ قُلْتُ يَأْبَى اللَّهُ وَيَدْفَعُ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ، أَوْ يَدْفَعُ اللَّهُ وَيَأْبَى الْمُؤْمِنُونَ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith speaks of the Prophet Muhammad's (PBUH) deep care for his wife, Aisha. When she complained of a headache, he wished that it had happened while he was still alive so that he could ask Allah for forgiveness on her behalf and invoke Him for her. In response, Aisha jokingly accused him of wanting her to die so that he could spend time with one of his other wives. The Prophet then expressed his trust in Allah's will and the loyalty of the Muslims by saying that even if something were to happen, they would not allow it to be otherwise than what Allah has decreed. This hadith teaches us about trusting in God’s will no matter what happens as well as being loyal to our leaders and those we love.
