It is narrated from Sayyidah Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) that on the day Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) passed away, she said: "Today the person who was most beloved in this world to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) has died." Then she said: "I seek Allah's forgiveness (for these words), except for her father."
