English Translation

It was narrated from 'Abdullah (رضي الله عنه) — via Waki', from Mis'ar, from 'Alqama ibn Marthad, from al-Mughira ibn 'Abdillah al-Yashkuri, from al-Ma'rur ibn Suwayd — that he said: 'Umm Habiba (رضي الله عنها) said: O Allah, let me enjoy [the company of] my husband the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and my father Abu Sufyan, and my brother Mu'awiya. the Prophet ﷺ said: You have asked Allah (عز وجل) for appointed lifespans, counted days, and divided provisions — He will neither hasten anything before its [appointed] time nor delay anything past its [appointed] time. Had you asked Allah (عز وجل) to protect you from punishment in the Fire or punishment in the grave, that would have been better and more excellent [for you to ask].'
