Sunan Ibn Majah 1546
حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ مُوسَى، حَدَّثَنَا شَرِيكُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَامِرِ بْنِ رَبِيعَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ فَقَدْتُهُ - تَعْنِي النَّبِيَّ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ - فَإِذَا هُوَ بِالْبَقِيعِ فَقَالَ " السَّلاَمُ عَلَيْكُمْ دَارَ قَوْمٍ مُؤْمِنِينَ أَنْتُمْ لَنَا فَرَطٌ وَإِنَّا بِكُمْ لاَحِقُونَ اللَّهُمَّ لاَ تَحْرِمْنَا أَجْرَهُمْ وَلاَ تَفْتِنَّا بَعْدَهُمْ " .

Isma‘il ibn Musa narrated to us; Sharik ibn Abdullah narrated to us, from Asim ibn Ubaydullah, from Abdullah ibn Amir ibn Rabi‘ah, from Aishah, who said: ‘I could not find him—meaning the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)—then I found him at al-Baqi‘. He said, “Peace be upon you, abode of a believing people. You have gone ahead of us, and we will join you. O Allah, do not deprive us of their reward and do not put us to trial after them.”’
