The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "I accept." While praising her, the woman happened to say that her daughter had never suffered from a headache nor had she ever been ill.

When they reached near Madinah Munawwarah, they began to recite rajaz poetry: "Tomorrow we will meet our friends, that is, Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) and his companions."

It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that once I went with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) to visit Zaid bin Arqam, whose eyesight had gone. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to him, "Zaid! Tell me, if your eyes are taken away from you from where they were given, what will you do?" He replied, "I will be patient and hope for reward." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "If your eyesight is taken away and you are patient over it and hope for reward, then you will meet Allah in such a state that there will be no sin upon you."

I asked my Lord for three things; He granted me two and withheld one. I requested that my Ummah not be destroyed by famine, and Allah accepted it. I requested that the enemy not be given complete dominance over them, and Allah accepted that as well. Then I presented the third request that they not be divided into different sects, but Allah did not grant this."
