حديث عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ: أَعْتَمَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَيْلَةً بِالْعِشَاءِ، وَذلِكَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَفْشُوَ الإِسْلَامُ، فَلَمْ يَخْرُجْ حَتَّى قَالَ عُمَرُ: نَامَ النِّسَاءُ وَالصِّبْيَانُ؛ فَخَرَجَ، فَقَالَ لأَهْلِ الْمَسْجِدِ: مَا يَنْتَظِرُهَا أَحَدٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الأَرْضِ غَيْرَكُمْ.
A'isha Narrated from:
Allâh's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم once delayed the 'Ishâ prayer and that was during the days when Islâm still had not spread. The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم did not come out till 'Umar informed him that the women and children had slept. Then he (the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم) came out and said to the people of the mosque: "None amongst the dwellers of the earth has been waiting for it ('Ishâ prayers) except you." ( Sahih Al-Bukhâri, Hadîth No. 541, Vol. 1)
