She gave birth to a boy and Abil Talhah said to me: 'Take him to the Prophet [So he took him to the Prophet ç.] And she sent some dates with him. The Prophet ii took him and said: 'Is there anything with him?' They said: 'Yes, some dates.' The Prophet took them and chewed them, then he took it from his mouth and put it in the child's mouth and rubbed it on his palate (TahnIk) and named him 'Abdullâh."
