Lady Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates: Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) asked me: On which day did the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) pass away? I replied: On Monday. So Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I hope that my death will also occur on this day. Then Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) passed away on Monday evening and he was buried at night.
