نَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ ، إِمْلاءً ، نَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ صَالِحٍ الأَزْدِيُّ ، نَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ غُرَابٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْحَمِيدِ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ الأَنْصَارِيِّ ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي ، عَنْ جَدِّ أَبِيهِ رَافِعِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ ، " أَنَّهُ أَسْلَمَ ، وَأَبَتِ امْرَأَتُهُ أَنْ تُسْلِمَ ، وَكَانَ لَهُ مِنْهَا ابْنَةٌ تشبه بِالْفَطِيمِ ، فَخَاصَمَهَا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَ : ضَعَاهَا بَيْنَكُمَا ، ثُمَّ ادْعُوَاهَا ، فَفَعَلا فَمَالَتْ إِلَى أُمِّهَا ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : اللَّهُمَّ اهْدِهَا، فَمَالَتْ إِلَى أَبِيهَا فَأَخَذَهَا " .
It is narrated about Sayyiduna Rafi‘ bin Sinan (may Allah be pleased with him): He accepted Islam, but his wife refused to accept Islam. They had a young daughter who had reached the age of weaning. Both of them brought their case before the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Place her between you, and then both of you call her." They did so, and the girl inclined towards her mother. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) prayed: "O Allah! Grant her guidance." Then the girl inclined towards her father, so Sayyiduna Rafi‘ (may Allah be pleased with him) obtained her.
