Ummi Haram RA was an
aunt of Anas . Nabi SAW often visited her and sometimes had his
afternoon nap at her place. Once he was sleeping in her house, when
he woke up smiling.Ummi Haram RA said: "O, Nabi SAW may my
parents be sacrificed for you, tell me what made you smile.” He
replied: "I saw in my dream a few of my followers going for
Jihad across the sea. They looked like kings sitting on their thrones
in their ships.”
Ummi Haram said: "O,
Nabi of Allah! Pray that I may also be among those people. "
"You will be one of them!" He replied and went to sleep
again, and got up smiling for the second time. Ummi Haram asked him
again why he was smiling, He said: "I saw some more people going
for Jihad across the sea." Ummi Haram RA requested him to pray
for her to join them also, he said: "No, you are with the first
group only."
During the Khilafat
(rule) of Uthmaan RA , Amir Muawiyah RA, the Governor of Syria,
wanted permission to attack the Island of Cyprus. This permission was
granted by Uthmaan RA . Ummi Haram RA, with her husband Ubadah RA ,
was in that army. While returning from the island, she fell from her
mule, broke her neck and died. She was buried in Cyprus. Look at the
spirit of Ummi Haram RA. She wanted to join both the armies. As she
was meant to die during the first journey, Nabi SAW did not pray for
her taking part in the second one.
Umm Haraam and Umm Sulaym were mahrams of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him)
What
was the relation of prophet(PBUH) with Umm-i-Salaym and Umm-i-Haraam.
prophet normally used to go to their houses and rest over there. were
these two sihabiyat "MAHRAM" Of him and how.
Praise
be to Allah.
Umm
Sulaym’s full name was Sahlah or Rumaylah or Mulaykah bint Milhaan
ibn Khaalid ibn Zayd ibn Haraam ibn Jundub al-Ansaariyyah (may Allah
be pleased with her). She was the mother of Anas ibn Maalik (may
Allah be pleased with him), and is best known by her kunyah; there is
some difference of opinion as to her given name. Al-Isaabah,
8/227.
Ummi
Sulaym. Ibn ‘Abd al-Barr said: I could not find out her real name. They
were both mahrams of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be
upon him).
Al-Bukhari
(2789) and Muslim (1912) narrated from Anas ibn Maalik (may Allaah be
pleased with him) that he heard him say that the Messenger of Allaah
(peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) used to enter upon Umm
Haraam bint Milhaan and she would give him food. Umm Haraam was
married to ‘Ubaadah ibn al-Saamit. One day the Messenger of Allah
(peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) entered upon her, and she
provided him with food and started grooming his head. Then the
Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) slept,
then he woke up smiling. Umm Haraam asked, "What makes you
smile, O Messenger of Allah?" He said, "Some people of my
ummah were shown to me (in my dream) fighting for the sake of Allah,
sailing in the middle of the seas like kings on the thrones or like
kings sitting on their thrones." (The narrator Ishaq is not sure
as to which expression was correct). Umm Haraam added, "I said,
'O Messenger of Allah! Pray to Allah to make me one of them.' "
So the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him)
prayed to Allah for her and then laid his head down (and slept). Then
he woke up smiling (again). (Umm Haraam added): I said, "What
makes you smile, O Messenger of Allah?" He said, "Some
people of my ummah were shown to me (in my dream) fighting for the
sake of Allah." He said the same as he had said before. I said,
"O Messenger of Allah! Pray to Allah to make me one of them."
He said, "You will be among the first ones."
Then Umm
Haraam sailed across the sea during the Caliphate of Mu’aawiya ibn
Abi Sufyaan, and she fell down from her riding animal after coming
ashore, and died.Muslim
(2331) narrated that Anas ibn Maalik said: The Prophet (peace and
blessings of Allah be upon him) used to enter Umm Sulaym’s house
and sleep on her mattress when she was not there. He came one day and
slept on her mattress, then someone went to her and said to her, “The
Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) is sleeping in
your house on your bed.”
She came and saw that he had sweated and
his sweat had soaked a piece of cloth that was on the mattress. She
opened her box and started collecting that sweat and squeezing it
into bottles. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him)
woke with a start and said, “What are you doing, O Umm Sulaym?”
She said, “O Messenger of Allah, we hope for the barakah (blessing)
of this sweat for our children.” He said, “You are right.”Al-Nawawi
(may Allah have mercy on him) said:
“The
scholars are agreed that Umm Haraam was a mahram of the Prophet
(peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), but they differed as to
how that came about. Ibn ‘Abd al-Barr and others said that she was
one of his maternal aunts through radaa’ah (breastfeeding). Others
said that she was the maternal aunt of his father or his grandfather,
because ‘Abd al-Muttalib’s mother was from Banu al-Najjaar.”
He also
said:
“Umm
Haraam was the sister of Umm Sulaym, and they were maternal aunts of
the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) and
his mahrams, either through radaa’ah or through blood. So it was
permissible for him to be alone with them and to enter upon them on
his own, but he did not enter upon any other woman apart from his
wives.

They are kings on thrones or like kings on thrones," as he had said to the first. He said, "O Messenger of Allah! Ask Allah to place me among them!" He said, "You are among the first."
