Grant abundant blessings in our Madinah, and in our mudd and sa’ (measures)." Then he would give it to the youngest child present there.

The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) quickly went ahead of the people and stretched out both his hands. The child began to run here and there. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) kept laughing with him until he caught him. He (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) placed one hand under his chin and the other on his head and embraced him. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "Husayn is from me and I am from Husayn. May Allah love the one who loves Husayn. Husayn is one of our children."

It is narrated from Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that after marriage, I used to play with dolls in the presence of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), and many of my friends would also play with me.

Abu Al-Ajlan Muharibi (may Allah have mercy on him) says: I was in the army of Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Zubair (may Allah be pleased with them both) when one of my paternal cousins passed away, and he had a camel about which he made a bequest that it should be given in the way of Allah. I said to his son: Give me that camel because I am in the army of Sayyiduna Ibn Zubair (may Allah be pleased with them both). He said: Take us to Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) so that we may ask about the matter. We went to Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) and he said: O Abu Abdur Rahman! My father has passed away and has dedicated a camel in the way of Allah, and this is my cousin who is in the army of Sayyiduna Ibn Zubair (may Allah be pleased with them both). Can I give this camel to him? Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: O son! Indeed, every righteous deed is in the way of Allah. If your father made a bequest to give this camel only in the way of Allah, then when you see that a group of Muslims is fighting against the polytheists, give them that camel. As for this man and his companions, they are fighting on the path of their sons, each of whom wants his own command to prevail.
