سنن نسائی · Hadith 3179
It was narrated that Anas bin Malik said: “When the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم went to Quba’ he used to come to Umm Haram bint Milhan and she would feed him. Umm Haram was married to ‘Ubadah bin A The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم entered upon her and she fed him and checked his head for lice. The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم fell asleep, then he woke up smiling. She said: ‘What is making you smile, Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم?’ He said: ‘Some people of my Ummah were shown to me, fighting in the cause of Allah and riding across the sea like kings on thrones.’ I said: ‘Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم, pray to Allah to make me one of them.’ So the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم prayed for her, then he slept again.” (One of the narrators) Al-Harith, said (in his narration): “He slept then he woke up smiling. I said to him: ‘What is making you smile, Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم?’ He said: ‘Some people of my Ummah were shown to me, fighting in the cause of Allah and riding across the sea like kings on thrones,’ as he had said the first time. I said: ‘Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم, pray to Allah to make me one of them.’ He said: ‘You will be one of the first.’ And she traveled by sea at the time of Muawiyah, then she fell from her mount when she came out of the sea and died.” (Sahih)
