Nawawi_37_Patience_Anger_&_Perseverence, page : 16
“The Prophet, praise and peace be upon him, passed by a woman
5
who was crying at a grave-side. He said to her, 'Fear Allah and be
steadfast.' She, not realizing who he was replied, 'Leave me alone;
you have not suffered as I have.' Later someone told her that the
one who spoke was the Prophet, praise and peace be upon him.
The woman went to the house of the Prophet, praise and peace be
upon him, there she found a doorman and went inside and said to
him, 'I did not recognize you.' He said, 'Patience is at the time of the
first shock of grief.' She had been crying at the grave-side of her
son.”
Bukhari and Muslim with a chain up to Anas who related that the Prophet, praise
and peace be upon him, said this.
