Sahih Muslim Hadith 944

English

[944] 98 – (419) Anas bin Mâlik narrated that AN Bakr used to lead the people in prayer during the final sickness of the Messenger of Allah until, on the Monday, when the people were lined up in rows in the Masjid, the Messenger of Allah drew back the curtain of the room and looked out at us. He was standing and his face was as bright as a page of the Mus/zaf. The Messenger of Allah , smiled, a bright smile, and we were filled with joy as we were praying, due to the fact that the Prophet ç had come out. AN Bakr stepped back on his heels to join the front row, because he thought that the Messenger of Allah was coming out to lead us in prayer. But the Messenger of Allah gestured to them, indicating them to complete their prayer. Then the Messenger of Allah went back in and drew the curtain, and the Messenger of Allah died that same day.
