Narrated Asma bint Abi Bakr: I saw Zaid bin Amr bin Nufail standing with his back against the
Ka'ba and saying, "O people of Quraish! By Allah, none amongst you is on the religion of Abraham
except me." He used to preserve the lives of little girls: If somebody wanted to kill his daughter he

you wish, I will feed her on your behalf."
