It is narrated from the Mother of the Believers, Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her), that an old woman of the Ansar came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: "O Messenger of Allah, pray to Allah that He admit me into Paradise." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "No old woman will enter Paradise." Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) went and offered the prayer, after which he returned to Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her), and she said: "She has suffered great distress and severe grief from what you (peace and blessings be upon him) said." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "That is indeed how it is; but when Allah Almighty admits these women into Paradise, He will make them virgins."
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "No one narrated this hadith from Qatadah (may Allah have mercy on him) except Sa'id bin Abi Arubah (may Allah have mercy on him)."
