Abū Nuʿaym narrated from the path of al Zuhrī, from Umm Samāʿah bint Abī Ruhm, from her mother who said: “I saw Āminah, the mother of the Emissary of Allāh ﷺ, in her illness which she died from and Muḥammad ﷺ who was a growing boy—five years old—was at her head.
His mother gazed at his face and said:
‘May Allāh bless you, my boy.
O son, who from the fate of death,
was saved by the aid of the Benevolent Sovereign,
ransomed on the morning the arrows were drawn,
for a hundred tall camels.
If what I have seen in my dreams is true,
‘May Allāh bless you, my boy.
O son, who from the fate of death,
was saved by the aid of the Benevolent Sovereign,
ransomed on the morning the arrows were drawn,
for a hundred tall camels.
If what I have seen in my dreams is true,
then you are the one who will be sent to all mankind,
by the Possessor of Majesty and Glory.
You will be sent to all lands; the Sanctuary and beyond.
You will be sent with realisation and Islām,
and the religion of your righteous forefather, Ibrāhīm.
by the Possessor of Majesty and Glory.
You will be sent to all lands; the Sanctuary and beyond.
You will be sent with realisation and Islām,
and the religion of your righteous forefather, Ibrāhīm.
Allāh shall keep you away from idols,
that you do not befriend them alongside the people.’*
Then she said: ‘Every living creature will die and everything new will wear out. Every worn-out thing will disappear. Yes, I am going to die as well, yet I will be remembered forever…
that you do not befriend them alongside the people.’*
Then she said: ‘Every living creature will die and everything new will wear out. Every worn-out thing will disappear. Yes, I am going to die as well, yet I will be remembered forever…
…because I have given birth to an immaculate child and am leaving an auspicious person behind me.’”
[The mother of Umm Samāʿah said:] “Then she died. We then heard a lament of the jinn upon her and we memorised from that:
We weep for the righteous, trustworthy woman,
[The mother of Umm Samāʿah said:] “Then she died. We then heard a lament of the jinn upon her and we memorised from that:
We weep for the righteous, trustworthy woman,
the possessor of beauty, purity, and peace.
The wife and companion of ʿAbduLlāh,
the mother of the Prophet of Allāh, the possessor of tranquility,
the owner of the pulpit in Madīnah.
Her grave becomes a security [for her].”

* The author of al Ḥāwī said in regards to these verses: “You see that these words are clear in negating the worship of the false idols with the people (i.e. the mushrikīn of Makkah), acknowledging the religion of Ibrāhīm ʿalayhi ‘s-salām, and the sending of her son to all…
…mankind with Islām from the Possessor of Majesty and Glory. And these verses are negation of blasphemy. [T]hen, I investigated on the mothers of the prophets ʿalayhim al salām and I found them to be believers: the mother of Isḥāq, Mūsā, Hārūn, ʿĪsā, and Ḥawwāʾ, the mother…
…of Shīth, are mentioned in the Qurʾān, rather, it is also said of their prophethood. And it is narrated from the ḥadīths on the faith of Hājar, the mother of Ismāʿīl, the mother of Yaʿqūb, the mothers of his sons, the mothers of Dāwūd, Sulaymān, Zakariyyā, Yaḥyā, Samuel,…
…Shamʿūn, and Dhū ‘l-Kifl. Some of the mufassirīn determined on the faith of the mothers of Nūḥ and Ibrāhīm; and this is given preponderance by Abū Ḥayyān in his tafsīr. [A]nd the apparent, by the will of Allāh ﷻ, is [the certainty of] their faith, so is the mother of…
…of the Prophet ﷺ, and the secret in that is what he sees of light as stated in the ḥadīth.”
