Hazrat Ismail bin Shoaib Saman (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates that Hazrat Umm Al-Ala said: My father took me to Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him), so he (may Allah be pleased with him) allotted a share for me in the gift, even though I was a small girl. And he (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The child who eats food and chews pieces of bread is more deserving of this gift than the newborn who suckles at the breast.
