Strengthening the Ummah

Usama bin Zaid said that while he. Sa`d and Ubai bin Ka`b were with the Prophet (ﷺ) a daughter of the
Prophet sent a message to him, saying. 'My daughter is dying; please come to us." The Prophet (ﷺ) sent
her his greetings and added "It is for Allah what He takes, and what He gives; and everything before
His sight has a limited period. So she should hope for Allah's reward and remain patient." She again
sent a message, beseeching him by Allah, to come. So the Prophet (ﷺ) got up. and so did we (and went
there). The child was placed on his lap while his breath was irregular. Tears flowed from the eyes of
the Prophet. Sa`d said to him, "What is this, O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)?" He said. "This Is Mercy which Allah
has embedded in the hearts of whomever He wished of His slaves. And Allah does not bestow His
Mercy, except on the merciful among His slaves. (See Hadith No. 373 Vol. 2)
