had the courage to reveal what would
make (Aisha) unhappy and would
oppose the politics of the time; for this
reason, she was shaken a great deal
when she heard their hadith. Such a
reaction is seen in her own statement
in response to it, a statement which is
one of the feeblest of answers. Imam alSindi, in his comment on this hadith in
al-Nisai's Sunan, as indicated on page
241, Vol. 6 (the Egyptian Press at alAzhar), said: "It is quite obvious that
such hadith [by `Aisha] does not rule
out the existence of the will prior to
her statement, nor does it prove that
he (pbuh) had died suddenly without
being able to leave a will or could have
thought of doing so, since he came to
know that his end was approaching
even before falling sick, then he
remained sick for days...," up to the
conclusion of his statement. If you
scrutinize this statement, you will find it
quite strong.
[3] Her statements "He died on my
chest," and "He died between my belly
and chin," are recorded in a chapter
dealing with his sickness and demise
(pbuh) in Bukhari's Sahih. As regarding
her statement "He died while his head
was on my thigh," this exists in another
chapter in which the author discusses
his sickness and demise without an
intervening chapter.
