The Dqys Nap He might enter Umm Sulaym's home and sleep on her couch when she was not at home. Once, she was told that the Prophet was sleeping on her couch and she went home. It was summer time. The Prophet was profusely sweating to the extent that his sweat gathered over a piece of hide that was on the couch. Umm Sulaym got something to gather that sweat and squeezed it in a bottle. The Prophet woke up as she was doing that. He asked her what she was doing. She said: "I am taking your sweat and putting it in a bottle. I hope that I will give it to our children for blessing. He told her that she did right and prayed for her.
To Quba' Every Saturday, the Prophet went in midmorning to Quba', either riding or walking. He prayed in the mosque there. The people of Quba' who belonged to the clan of 'Awf ibn al-Harith might come to see him in the mosque. They would greet him even when he was praying and he would reply with a signal. When he went to Quba', he would take his nap at the home of Umm Haram bint Milhan, Umm Sulaym's sister and the wife of 'Ubadah ibn al-Samit. She also was one of his relatives who was unlawful for him to marry. One day, he visited her. She gave him some food and she groomed his hair. As she was doing that, he dozed off. He then woke up smiling. She asked him: "What causes you to laugh, messenger of God?" He said: "I was shown people from among my community, going on jihad for God's cause, sailing in the sea, like kings on their couches." She said: "Please pray to God to include me with them." The Prophet prayed for her. He then dozed off a second time. Again he woke up smiling. She asked him the reason for laughing and he said again: "I was shown people from among my community going on jihad for God's cause." Once more she requested him to pray that she would be among them. He said: "You are with the first ones." Umm Haram actually travelled in the sea with the Muslim fleet during the reign of Mu 'awiyah ibn Abi Sufyan. After landing in Cyprus, she fell off her mount and died a martyr. What sort of great news of future events the Prophet was giving in a little hamlet deep in the middle of Arabia, at a time when the Muslim community was in poverty and lack of resources. Yet he was telling his woman companion that his people would be sailing the Mediterranean, the sea that was furthest from Madinah, in a state of strength and pride, 'like kings on their couches'. At that time, seafaring was far removed from the minds of the Arabs, let alone fighting sea battles. Which was more remarkable: this news given by the Prophet which was far beyond all probabilities, expectations and surrounding conditions, or the certainty that Umm Haram showed when she heard the news? She did not question the Prophet about it. She did not ask how could 42
