وَقَالَ مُسَدَّدٌ: حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو سَلَمَةَ
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ عَادَ رَجُلًا مِنْ بَنِي مُعَاوِيَةَ فَوَجَدَهُ قَدِ احْتُضِرَ، وَنِسَاؤُهُ حَوْلَهُ يَبْكِينَهُ، فَذَهَبَ رِجَالٌ يَرْدَعُونَ النِّسَاءَ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: دَعْهُنَّ، فَإِذَا وَجَبَتْ فَلَا أَسْمَعَنَّ صَوْتَ نَائِحَةٍ

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ visited a man from Banu Mu'awiyah and found him in his death throes, with his women around him weeping over him. Some men went to restrain the women, but the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'Leave them. But when death is certain, let me not hear the voice of any wailing woman.'
