قَالَ إِسْحَاقُ: أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ الْمُلَائِيُّ، ثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ جُمَيْعٍ، حَدَّثَتْنِي جَدَّتِي، عَنْ أُمِّ وَرَقَةَ بِنْتِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ - ؓ
وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَزُورُهَا وَيُسَمِّيهَا الشَّهِيدَةَ، وَكَانَتْ قَدْ جَمَعَتِ الْقُرْآنَ وَالْحَدِيثَ، فَقَامَ عُمَرُ ؓ فِي النَّاسِ، فَقَالَ: إِنَّ أُمَّ وَرَقَةَ غَمَّهَا غُلَامُهَا وَجَارِيَتُهَا فَقَتَلَاهَا وَإِنَّهُمَا هَرَبَا، فَأُتِيَ بِهِمَا، فَصُلِبَا، فَقَالَ عُمَرُ ؓ: صَدَقَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ، كَانَ يَقُولُ: انْطَلِقُوا نَزُورُ الشَّهِيدَةَ

'Umar ؓ stood among the people and said: 'Umm Waraqah was grieved by her slave boy and her slave girl, and they killed her, then they fled. They were brought and crucified.' 'Umar ؓ said: 'The Messenger of Allah ﷺ spoke the truth; he used to say: "Come, let us visit the martyr."'
