Umm Haram bint Milhan, the sister of Umm Sulaym, told me that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ took a midday nap at their home and woke up smiling.She said, "I asked, 'Messenger of Allah, what makes you smile?'"He replied, "I was shown people of my community riding upon the surface of this sea like kings upon their thrones."She said, "I said, 'Messenger of Allah, pray to Allah that He make me one of them.'"He said, "You are among them."Then he slept again and woke up smiling.She said, "I asked, 'Messenger of Allah, what makes you smile?'"He gave the same reply as before.She said, "I said, 'Messenger of Allah, pray to Allah that He make me one of them.'"He said, "You will be among the first."Ubada bin Samit later married her, and he set out on a naval expedition, taking her with him. When they returned, a mule was brought for her to ride, but it threw her, breaking her neck, and she died.
حدثنا سليمان بن داود العتكي حدثنا حماد يعني ابن زيد عن يحيى بن سعيد عن محمد بن يحيى بن حبان
حدثتني أم حرام بنت ملحان أخت أم سليم أن رسول الله ﷺ قال عندهم فاستيقظ وهو يضحك قالت فقلت يا رسول الله ما أضحكك قال رأيت قوما ممن يركب ظهر هذا البحر كالملوك على الأسرة قالت قلت يا رسول الله ادع الله أن يجعلني منهم قال فإنك منهم قالت ثم نام فاستيقظ وهو يضحك قالت فقلت يا رسول الله ما أضحكك فقال مثل مقالته قالت قلت يا رسول الله ادع الله أن يجعلني منهم قال أنت من الأولين قال فتزوجها عبادة بن الصامت فغزا في البحر فحملها معه فلما رجع قربت لها بغلة لتركبها فصرعتها فاندقت عنقها فماتت
