Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي جَرِيرٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ حَازِمٍ عَنْ حَرْمَلَةَ الْمِصْرِيِّ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ شِمَاسَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ اللَّهُمَّ مَنْ وَلِيَ مِنْ أُمَّتِي شَيْئًا فَرَفَقَ بِهِمْ فَارْفُقْ بِهِ وَمَنْ شَقَّ عَلَيْهِمْ فَشُقَّ عَلَيْهِ حَدَّثَنَا عَامِرُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ مِنْ وَلَدِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي هِشَامُ بْنُ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ عَنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ هِشَامٍ أَنَّهُ سَأَلَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَيْفَ يَأْتِيكَ الْوَحْيُ فَذَكَرَ نَحْوًا مِنْ حَدِيثِ مَالِكٍ.
English Translation
Abd al-Rahman told us, Jarir -- that is Ibn Hazim -- told me, from Harmala al-Misri, from Abd al-Rahman ibn Shimasa, from Aisha, that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "O Allah, whoever is given charge over any matter of my nation and is gentle with them, be gentle with him; and whoever is harsh with them, be harsh with him." Amir ibn Salih, of the descendants of Abdullah ibn al-Zubayr, told us, he said Hisham ibn Urwa told me, from his father, from Aisha, from al-Harith ibn Hisham, that he asked the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, "How does the revelation come to you?" and he mentioned something similar to the hadith of Malik.
