(the daughter of Abu Talib) I visited Allah’s Apostle in the year of the Conquest of Mecca and
found him taking a bath, and his daughter, Fatima was screening him. When I greeted him, he said,
“Who is it?” I replied, “I am Um Hani, the daughter of Abu Talib.” He said, “Welcome, O Um Hani ! ”
When the Prophet had finished his bath, he stood up and offered eight Rakat of prayer while he was
wrapped in a single garment. When he had finished his prayer, I said, “O Allah’s Apostle! My mater –
nal brother assumes (or claims) that he will murder some man whom I have given shelter, i.e., so-
and-so bin Hubaira.” Allah’s Apostle said, “O Um Hani! We shelter him whom you have sheltered.”
Um Hani added, “That happened in the forenoon.”

the daughter of Abu Talib: I went to Allah’s Apostle on the day of the conquest of Mecca and found
him taking a bath, and his daughter Fatima was screening him. I greeted him and he asked, “Who is
that?” I said, “I, Um Hani bint Abi Talib.” He said, “Welcome, O Um Hani.” When he had finished his
bath, he stood up and offered eight Rakat while dressed in one garment. I said, “O Allah’s Apostle! My
brother ‘Ali has declared that he will kill a man to whom I have granted asylum. The man is so and-
so bin Hubaira.” Allah’s Apostle said, “O Um Hani! We will grant asylum to the one whom you have
granted asylum.” (Um Hani said, “That (visit) took place in the Duha (i.e. forenoon)).
