[Machine] When the Prophet ﷺ married Umm Salamah, he said, "I used to give a gift to Najashi (the ruler of Abyssinia), and I never see it except that it returns to us. I have learned that Najashi has passed away, so I gave him a necklace and a musk pouch. If it returns to us, O Umm Salamah, it is yours." She said, "So it happened as the Messenger of Allah ﷺ had said: Najashi passed away, and the gift was returned to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . He then sent a musk pouch to each of his wives and sent the necklace. Whatever remained of the musk was given to Umm Salamah."

[Machine] And about his mother, Umm Kulthum bint Abi Salama, she said: When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ married Umm Salamah, he said to her, "I have presented a gift to Najashi of a robe and jewelry made of musk, and I do not see Najashi except that he has passed away, and I do not see anything returned to me except my gift. So if it is returned to me, it is yours." They said: And it was as the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, and his gift was returned to him. So he gave every woman of his wives a jewelry made of musk, and he gave Umm Salamah the remaining musk and robe.

[Machine] When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ married Umm Salamah, he said to her, "I have presented to the Negus gifts of musk and jewelry, but I do not see him except that he has already passed away, and I do not see the gifts that were given to him except that they will be returned. So if they are returned to me, will they be yours or mine?" It happened just as he said. The Negus died, and when the gifts were returned to him, he gave each of his wives a piece of musk and gave the rest to Umm Salamah, along with the jewelry.

[Machine] When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ married me, he said, "I have presented a dress and some bracelets made of musk to the Najashi, and I have not seen him wearing them except after his death. So the gift will be returned, and if it is so, it will be for you." She said, and it happened as the Prophet ﷺ said, the Najashi died and the gift was returned, so the Prophet ﷺ gave a bracelet made of musk to each of his wives and gave the dress and the rest of the musk to Umm Salamah.

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to Umm Salamah: "I have gifted some musk and jewelry to the Negus. However, I do not see him alive anymore, and I do not see the gift I sent him. If it is returned to me, then it is for you or for you all." He said this because the Negus had died. When the gift was returned to him, he gave each of his wives a necklace made of musk and gave the rest to Umm Salamah and all of them. He also gave her the jewelry. In another narration by Musaddad, he said: "If it is returned to me, then I think I will distribute it among you all or it is for you." He said this and it was as he said ﷺ.
