Abu Hurairah said, "I used to invite my mother to Islam while she was a polytheist. One day I called her to it, and she said about the Messenger of Allah ﷺ something I detested hearing. So I came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ weeping.I said, 'Messenger of Allah, I have been inviting my mother to Islam, but she refuses me. I called her today, and she said about you something I detested hearing. So pray to Allah to guide the mother of Abu Hurairah.'The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'O Allah, guide the mother of Abu Hurairah.'So I left rejoicing at the supplication of the Prophet of Allah ﷺ…" the hadith continues at length.
كنت أدعو أمي إلى الإسلام وهي مشركة، فدعوتها يوما، فأسمعتني في رسول الله ﷺ ما أكره، فأتيت رسول الله ﷺ وأنا أبكي، قلت: يا رسول الله، إني كنت أدعو أمي إلى الإسلام فتأبى علي، فدعوتها اليوم، فأسمعتني فيك ما أكره، فادع الله أن يهدي أم أبي هريرة، فقال رسول الله ﷺ: اللهم اهد أم أبي هريرة. فخرجت مستبشرا بدعوة نبي الله ﷺ… الحديث بطوله.
