Khalid bin Sa'id bin Amr bin Sa'id narrates from his uncle Khalid bin Sa'id al-Akbar (may Allah be pleased with him) that when he came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) from Abyssinia, his daughter Umm Khalid was with him. He brought her to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and she was wearing a yellow shirt which the girl liked very much. She understood some words of the Abyssinian language, so the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), jesting with her, said to her in the Abyssinian language: 'Sanah, sanah', which in Abyssinian means "Good, good." Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), praying for her long life, said: 'Abli wa akhliqi, abli wa akhliqi' (Wear it out and make it old, wear it out and make it old). The narrator said: By Allah, she wore those clothes out thoroughly and was then blessed to wear new clothes. Then the girl leaned towards the back of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and placed her hand on the Seal of Prophethood. Her father wanted to stop her, so the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Leave her (say nothing to her)." This hadith has a sahih (authentic) chain, because the two Shaykhs agreed on recording the hadith of Ishaq bin Sa'id bin Amr bin Sa'id from his forefathers and paternal uncles. This is the same Umm Khalid bint Khalid bin Sa'id bin al-As whom her father brought to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) as a small child; she attained the companionship of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and also narrated hadith from him.

Sayyidah Umm Khalid bint Khalid bin Sa'id bin al-As al-Akbar (may Allah be pleased with her) said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) seeking refuge from the punishment of the grave. Mention of the merits of Safwan bin Makhramah al-Zuhri (may Allah be pleased with him):
