Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ عُمَرَ حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ أَنَسٍ عَنْ قَطَنِ بْنِ وَهْبٍ عَنْ يُحَنَّسَ أَنَّ مَوْلَاةً لِابْنِ عُمَرَ أَتَتْهُ فَقَالَتْ عَلَيْكَ السَّلَامُ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ قَالَ وَمَا شَأْنُكِ قَالَتْ أَرَدْتُ الْخُرُوجَ إِلَى الرِّيفِ فَقَالَ لَهَا اقْعُدِي فَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ لَا يَصْبِرُ عَلَى لَأْوَائِهَا وَشِدَّتِهَا أَحَدٌ إِلَّا كُنْتُ لَهُ شَهِيدًا أَوْ شَفِيعًا يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ.
English Translation
Isma'il ibn Umar told us: Malik, that is Ibn Anas, told us, from Qatan ibn Wahb, from Yuhannis, that a freedwoman of Ibn Umar came to him and said, 'Peace be upon you, O Abu Abd al-Rahman.' He said, 'What is your matter?' She said, 'I wish to go out to the countryside (al-Rif).' He said to her, 'Stay, for I heard the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, say: No one endures its (Medina's) hardship and difficulty except that I will be a witness for him or an intercessor on the Day of Resurrection.'
