The Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) was injured during the battle of Uhud; he received cuts to his head and face. In this hadith, the Tabi‘i Abu Hazim Salamah ibn Dinar al-Madini narrates that Sahl ibn Sa‘d as-Sa‘idi (may Allah be pleased with him) was asked how the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) was treated for the injuries that he had sustained on the day of Uhud. He replied: There is no one left who knows more about that than me. That was because he was the last of the Sahabah to die in Madinah; he died in 91 AH at the age of one hundred years. He narrated that ‘Ali ibn Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) brought water in his shield, which is a piece of personal armour that is used to protect a fighter from being struck by arrows and swords. Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her) washed the blood from the wounds, and when she saw that the bleeding would not stop, she burned a small reed mat, then took the ashes and put them on the wound in order to stop the bleeding. This hadith indicates that trials and calamities befell the Prophets (blessings and peace of Allah be upon them) so that they might attain immense reward, so that their nations and others would know what befell them and thus follow their example, and so that they might know that they were human beings who experienced what other humans experience. It indicates that a woman may interact with her father and mahrams, show kindness to them and treat them when they are sick or injured. It indicates that it is valid to seek medical treatment. It indicates that one who has no knowledge may ask one who does have knowledge about something that he does not know..
