[Machine] Asma, the daughter of Abu Bakr, immigrated to the Prophet ﷺ while she was pregnant with Abdullah bin Zubair. She gave birth and brought him to the Prophet ﷺ to rub his gums. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ took him and placed him in his lap, then he was brought a date and he sucked on it. The Prophet ﷺ then put it in his mouth and rubbed his gums with it. If the first thing to enter his stomach was the saliva of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, Asma said. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ wiped his body and named him Abdullah. Later, when he was seven or eight years old, he came to the Prophet ﷺ to pledge allegiance to him. Zubair ordered him to do so, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ smiled when he saw him approaching and giving allegiance. He was the first person born in Madinah after the advent of Islam, and the Jews used to say that no child is born to them in Madinah. When Abdullah was born, the companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ raised their voices in takbeer. Abdullah bin Umar, the son of Umar ibn Khattab, said when he heard the takbeer of the people of Sham (Greater Syria) after they killed Abdullah bin Zubair, who they considered to be better than those who celebrated his birth, and said, "They are better than those who celebrated his death."
