English translation

Narrated Ar-Rabi`:

(the daughter of Muawwidh bin Afra) After the consummation of my marriage, the Prophet (ﷺ) came and sat on my bed as far from me as you are sitting now, and our little girls started beating the tambourines and reciting elegiac verses mourning my father who had been killed in the battle of Badr. One of them said, "Among us is a Prophet (ﷺ) who knows what will happen tomorrow." On that the Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Leave this (saying) and keep on saying the verses which you had been saying before."
