Arabic hadith text

وَعَن أم سَلمَة قَالَتْ: اسْتَيْقَظَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَيْلَةً فَزِعًا يَقُولُ: «سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ مَاذَا أُنْزِلَ اللَّيْلَةَ مِنَ الْخَزَائِنِ؟ وَمَاذَا أُنْزِلَ مِنَ الْفِتَنِ؟ مَنْ يُوقِظُ صَوَاحِبَ الْحُجُرَاتِ» يُرِيدُ أَزْوَاجَهُ «لِكَيْ يُصَلِّينَ؟ رُبَّ كَاسِيَةٍ فِي الدُّنْيَا عَارِيَةٍ فِي الْآخِرَة» أخرجه البُخَارِيّ

Umm Salamah said: One night the Messenger of God, peace and blessings be upon him, awoke with a start, saying: Glory be to God! What treasures have been sent down tonight, and what trials have been sent down! Who will awaken the women of the chambers (meaning his wives) so that they may pray? How many women are clothed in this world yet naked in the Hereafter! Al-Bukhari transmitted it.
