Jubair bin Mut’im (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that a woman came to the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). The Prophet (peace be upon him) instructed her to go and come back again. She said, “Tell me, if I come and do not find you?”—as if she meant, if you have passed away? The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, “If you do not find me, then go to Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him).” (That woman had come regarding financial assistance.)
