The Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) missed her (or him) and inquired about her (or him). The people told him that she (or he) had died. He asked why they did not inform him, and it appears as if they had treated her (or him) or her (or his) affairs as of little account. He (the Holy Prophet) said: Lead me to her (or his) grave.

Verily, the Mighty and Glorious Allah illuminates them for their occupants by reason of my prayer over them.
