Less than three months after the Farewell Pilgrimage, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ fell ill. He was nursed in ‘A’ishah’s house, counselled “the prayer, the prayer”, smiled at his Ummah praying behind Abu Bakr on Monday morning — and a few hours later, his head in ‘A’ishah’s lap, he said: “O Allah, the Highest Companion.” The thirtieth book of The Prophet’s Sirah tells of the illness and death of the Prophet ﷺ.
“Muhammad is not but a messenger. [Other] messengers have passed on before him. So if he was to die or be killed, would you turn back on your heels [to unbelief]?”
