Sahih al-Bukhari 7360 (Book 96, Hadith 87) #7062
Seeking Guidance from the Righteous

SUMMARY: The hadith is about a woman who asked the Prophet what to do if she could not find him, and he told her to go to Abu Bakr.

Narrated Jubair bin Mut'im: A lady came to Allah's Messenger and she talked to him about something, and he gave her some order. She said, "O Allah's Messenger ! If I should not find you?" He said, "If you should not find me, then go to Abu Bakr". Ibrahim bin Sa'd said, "As if she meant the death (of the Prophet).
حَدَّثَنِي عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَعْدِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي وَعَمِّي، قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، أَخْبَرَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جُبَيْرٍ، أَنَّ أَبَاهُ، جُبَيْرَ بْنَ مُطْعِمٍ أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ امْرَأَةً أَتَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَكَلَّمَتْهُ فِي شَىْءٍ، فَأَمَرَهَا بِأَمْرٍ فَقَالَتْ أَرَأَيْتَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنْ لَمْ أَجِدْكَ قَالَ ‏ "‏ إِنْ لَمْ تَجِدِينِي فَأْتِي أَبَا بَكْرٍ ‏"‏‏.‏ زَادَ الْحُمَيْدِيُّ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ سَعْدٍ كَأَنَّهَا تَعْنِي الْمَوْتَ‏.‏
