Question
Please provide the reference for the narration where Sayyidatuna ‘Aishah (radhiyallahu ‘anha) mentioned she feared that Nabi (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) had passed away in sajdah on the fifteenth of Sha’ban, due to him prolonging the sajdah and the narration where Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) sought her permission to spend the fifteenth night of Sha’ban in ‘ibadah.
Answer
Imam Bayhaqi (rahimahullah) has recorded both these narrations in Shu’abul Iman. He has graded the first Hadith as good (jayyid) and the second Hadith as weak.
(Shu’abul Iman, Hadith: 3554 and 3556)
And Allah Ta’ala Knows best,
