عن عائشة زوج النبي صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم انها قالت ما رايت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم قط مستجمعا ضاحكا قال معاوية ضحكا حتى ارى منه لهواته إنما كان يتبسم وقالت كان إذا راى غيما او ريحا عرف ذلك في وجهه قالت يا رسول الله الناس إذا راوا الغيم فرحوا رجاء ان يكون فيه المطر واراك إذا رايته عرفت في وجهك الكراهية قالت فقال يا عائشة ما يؤمني ان يكون فيه عذاب قد عذب قوم بالريح وقد راى قوم العذاب فقالوا هذا عارض ممطرنا [الاحقاف: 24]
It is narrated from Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), she says: I never saw the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) laughing openly such that I could see the uvula of his throat; he (peace and blessings be upon him) would only smile slightly. And when he (peace and blessings be upon him) saw clouds or wind, its effects would become apparent on his (peace and blessings be upon him) face (i.e., he would become worried). I said: O Messenger of Allah! People become happy when they see clouds or wind, because they hope for rain to come, but on the contrary, I see that signs of anxiety appear on your face? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: O Aisha! What security do I have that there is no punishment in it, while a people (i.e., the people of ‘Ad) were destroyed by wind, and that people were looking at the punishment, but (seeing the apparent cloud) they were saying: This is a cloud that will bring us rain.

(وعنه من طريق ثان) مثله وزاد قال ثابت فقلت يا ابا حمزة الست كانك تنظر إلى رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم وكانك تسمع إلى نغمته فقال بلى والله إني لارجو ان القاه يوم القيامة فاقول يا رسول الله خويدمك قال خدمته عشر سنين بالمدينة وانا غلام ليس كل امري كما يشتهي صاحبي ان يكون ما قال لي فيها اف ولا قال لي لم فعلت هذا والا فعلت هذا
(Second chain) This hadith is similar to the previous one, except that it has this addition: Thabit says: I asked, "O Abu Hamza! Do you not still feel as if you are still seeing and hearing the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him?" He said: "Yes, absolutely, I also hope that on the Day of Resurrection I will meet the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, and I will say: O Messenger of Allah! I am your little servant. I served you in Madinah Munawwarah for ten years while I was a child, and not all of my actions were as you, peace and blessings be upon him, wished, but (during this long period) you, peace and blessings be upon him, never even said 'uff' to me, nor did you ever object to my work by saying: Why did you do this? Why did you not do this?"
