This is the resting place of Sayyidah Halimah al-Sa'diyah, the Prophet's wet nurse. Rasūlullāh ﷺ lived with her in Banu Sa'd until he was 5 years old. When Halima came to Makkah, the Prophet ﷺ was just 8 days old.
When she gazed upon in this month of Rabi', she said that her eyes had never seen a newborn who was more beautiful. Before arriving to Makkah, she had the slowest and most frail camel in her tribe but when she held Rasūlullāh ﷺ, the mount surpassed the entire caravan.
When asked how - she replied, 'This is a blessed child!' Her mount began to produce lots of milk such that Halima would sleep with a full stomach for the first time in her life. All her animals became the strongest and her home became filled with blessings.
In a time of drought, she would not suffer whilst Rasūlullāh ﷺ was with her. Anything the Prophet ﷺ touched would become cure and barakah.

When she tearfully brought him back home when he was 5 years old, she was heartbroken because she loved him so much.
Years later, she came to Madinah and accepted Islam. She would give Rasūlullāh ﷺ milk in this world so in return, he gifted her the rivers of milk in Paradise. May all our mothers be with Rasūlullāh ﷺ in the akhirah for everything they did for us when we were young.
People say that Sayyidah Halimah was looking after Rasūlallāh ﷺ when he was a child but in actual reality, he was the one forever taking care of her from the moment her eyes were blessed to first look upon him ﷺ.
