Hadith text

Narrated Al-Qasim bin Muhammad:`Aisha, (complaining of headache) said, "Oh, my head"! Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) 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 (ﷺ) 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

Al-Qasim bin Muhammad bataate hain: Aisha ne (sar dard ki shikaayat karte hue) kaha, 'Haaye, mera sar!' Allah ke Rasool (SAW) ne farmaya, 'Kaash aisa tab hota jab main abhi zinda hota, taake main tumhaare liye Allah se maafi maangta aur dua karta.' Aisha ne kaha, 'Wa Thuklayah! Allah ki qasam, mujhe lagta hai aap chahte hain ke main mar jaaun; aur agar aisa ho jaaye, to aap din ke aakhri hisse mein apni kisi doosri biwi ke saath so rahe honge!' Nabi (SAW) ne farmaya, 'Nahi, mujhe to "Haaye mera sar!" kehna chaahiye. Mera mann kiya ke Abu Bakr aur unke bete ko bulaaun aur unhein apna jaanasheen muqarrar kar doon, kahin koi kuch dawa na kar de ya koi kuch aur na chaahe, magar phir maine (khud se) kaha, "Allah kisi aur tareeke se nahi chaahega, aur Musalmaan bhi isse rokenge."'
