- .... Abu Nuaym narrated
from Um Sum'ah bint Abu Rahm, from her mother, who said: "I witnessed Amina bint Wahb in the illness in which she died, and Muhammad, a boy of about five years, was at her head. I looked at his face and then she said:""May Allah bless you, O boy, son of the one who escaped from the realm of the bath,
by the assistance of the Gracious King,
and was ransomed on the day of the assault with arrows
for a hundred camels of livestock,
if what I saw in my dream is true.
So you are one sent to humanity,
from the Possessor of Glory and Honor,
to be sent in lawful and unlawful matters,
sent with certainty and Islam,
the religion of your righteous father, Ibrahim,
sent with ease and Islam,
to not ally with them against nations.
But Allah has forbidden you from idols."
Then she said:
"Every living being will die, every new thing will age, every great thing will perish, and I will die, but my remembrance will remain. I have left behind goodness and have given birth to one pure." Then she died, and we could hear the weeping of the jinn over her, and we preserved from that:
"We mourn the virtuous, trustworthy girl,
endowed with beauty, modesty, and serenity,
the wife of Abdullah and his companion,
the mother of the Prophet of Allah, the One of Tranquility,
and the possessor of the pulpit in the city.
She has become a prisoner in her grave.
If she were to be ransomed, she would be ransomed at a great price,
for Death wields a blade of sharp years.
It leaves neither women nor a female traveler
except that they come, cut, and sever her ties.
Did you perish, O sorrowful one,
over what the One upon the Throne will exalt in His religion?
We are all distraught and saddened,
grieving for you, whether for loss or for adornment,
for the弱者and the distressed."*
