Narrated Umm Waraqah daughter of Nawfal: When the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم proceeded for the Battle of Badr, I said to him: Messenger of Allah allow me to accompany you in the battle. I shall act as a nurse for patients. It is possible that Allah might bestow martyrdom upon me. He said: Stay at your home. Allah, the Almighty, will bestow martyrdom upon you. The narrator said: Hence she was called martyr. She read the Quran. She sought permission from the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم to have a muadhdhin in her house. He, therefore, permitted her (to do so). She announced that her slave and slave-girl would be free after her death. One night they went to her and strangled her with a sheet of cloth until she died, and they ran away. Next day Umar announced among the people, "Anyone who has knowledge about them, or has seen them, should bring them (to him). " Umar (after their arrest) ordered (to crucify them) and they were crucified. This was the first crucifixion at Madina.

This tradition has also been narrated through a different chain of transmitters by Umm Waraqah daughter of Abdullah bin al-Harith. The first version is complete. This version goes: The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم used to visit her at her house. He appointed a Muadhdhin to call adhan for her; and he commanded her to lead the inmates of her house in prayer. Abdur-Rahman said: I saw her Muadhdhin who was an old man.
