In commendation of advising the families of the sick and those tending them to be kind and bear patiently the difficulties in their affairs; also, advising those whose death is imminent because of a legal sentence

WE RELATE FROM the Ṣaḥīḥ of Muslim from ‘Imrān ibn al-Ḥuṣayn who said that there came to the Messenger a woman from Juhaynah who was pregnant because of adultery. She said: “Messenger of Allah, I have transgressed the legal limit, so enforce it on me.” The Messenger of Allah called her guardian and said: “Treat her well, and when she has delivered bring her to me.” He did so and the Messenger commanded that her clothes be bound to her. Then he commanded that she be stoned, and he prayed the funeral ṣalāh for her. ^[1].
