[Machine] Umm Abdullah, the daughter of Raita bin Munabbih bin Al-Hajjaj, was kind to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . One day he came to her and said, "How are you, Umm Abdullah?" She replied, "I am fine, and Abdullah is a man who has renounced the world." His father told him on the day of Siffin, 'Go out and fight.' He said, 'O my father, are you commanding me to go out and fight, even though I have heard from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ things that I have never heard before? He said, 'I adjure you by Allah, do you know that what the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to you was true? He took your hand and put it in mine and said, 'Obey your father Amr bin Al-As.' He said, 'Yes.' He said, 'I am commanding you to fight.' So he went out and fought. When the war was over, Abdullah bin Amr said, 'If you had seen the position and the scene of my station at Siffin, when in the evening the people of Iraq came like clouds in spring, and the Zawahir shook them. If you say that they have changed overnight, we have battalions of them that have stood firm, and other battalions shook. They said to us, 'We think that you should give your allegiance to Ali.' We said, 'No, we think that you should fight each other.'
