Hadith 38

s Bint Asad-as, may the Pleasure of Allah-azwj be upon her-as, said to him, ‘I-as am the one who took his-saww responsibility, and I-as am married to his-saww uncle-as who wished and hoped for him-saww’. He said, ‘If you-as were truthful, then you-as will be blessed with a boy-asws, being a Sign, obedient to his-asws Lord-azwj, brave. His-asws name would be upon three letters, following this Prophet-saww in the entirety of his-saww matters, and helping him-saww in his-saww little and his-saww more, until he-asws would become his-saww against his-saww enemies, and his-saww door for his-saww friends. He-asws would relive the worries from his-saww face and eradicate the darkness from him-saww, the darkness inflaming the cradles of the children, and the limbs of the executioners would tremble from fearing him-asws, having noble merits and well known virtues, and invincible connections, and high status. He-asws would emigrate to the Prophet-saww being in his-saww obedience, and fight with his-asws own self and help him-saww and he-asws is his-saww successor-asws, the defender of his-asws in his-as chamber’.

While I-as was with it when it leapt and the sword became a (lion) cub, it manifested and became a terrifying lion. It went out from my-as hand and passed towards the mountain scouring its blade and puncturing its solidness, and the people were fearful from it, and they were being cautious from its fear, when Muhammad-saww came and grabbed upon its neck and towed it like the antelope to the feeding.
