Once a daughter of Allah’s Apostle sent a message to Allah’s Apostle while Usama, Sa’d, and my
father or Ubai were (sitting there) with him. She said, (in the message); My child is going to die;
please come to us.” Allah’s Apostle returned the messenger and told him to convey his greetings to
her, and say, “Whatever Allah takes, is for Him and whatever He gives is for Him, and everything
with Him has a limited fixed term (in this world): so she should be patient and hope for Allah’s re –
ward.” Then she again sent for him swearing that he should come; so The Prophet got up, and so did
we. When he sat there (at the house of his daughter), the child was brought to him, and he took him
into his lap while the child’s breath was disturbed in his chest. The eyes of Allah’s Apostle started
shedding tears. Sa’d said, “What is this, O Allah’s Apostle?” The Prophet said, “This is the mercy which
Allah has lodged in the hearts of whoever He wants of His slaves, and verily Allah is merciful only to
those of His slaves who are merciful (to others).’
