When Umm Salim got married with Aba Talha Al Ansari and she was granted with a beloved son, his father loved him so much. The child became ill and died while his father was in his work. When the father returned home, he asked his wife about the son. She replied: he is in his quietest modes. She prepared dinner, wore perfume and dressed up in her best garments. Her husband took her to bed and had an intimate relation with her. By the end of the night, she told him: Aba Talha, do you see if some people lent other people a loan, a trust and a deposit, then came to ask them for it, would those people refuse to give it back? He said no. She continued: Allah may He be Glorified lent you your son as a load, and then took him back to Him, account this with Allah and be patient..
He said Inna lilahi wa inna elayhee rajeoun (to Allah we are and to Allah we shall return) . Next morning, he went to the Messenger of Allah sallah Allah a`lyhee wa sallam and told him. He said, may Allah bless your past night. She became pregnant, the newly born was brought to the Prophet sallah Allah a`lyhee wa sallam. The Prophet took some dates, chew them, and he took the ground dates with his finger and place it into the infant's mouth and the infant would taste. She said: O Messenger of Allah, give him a name, he name him Abdullah. There no better young man in Medina than him. His off spring were all of the Mujahedeen who performed Jihad in the name of Allah on foot not riding. Abdullah martyred in Persia. In another narration. Abu Talha was granted ten sons who all memorized the Quran. (reported by Bukhari and Muslim)
