Samura b. Jundub said:
I was a young boy during the time of the Prophet ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) and I retained in my mind (what I learnt from him), and nothing restrained me from speaking except the fact that there were persons far more advanced in age than I. Verily, I said prayer behind the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) over a woman who had died in the state of delivery, and the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) stood up to say prayer in front of the middle part of her body. And in the tradition narrated on the authority of Ibn Muthanna the words are: (The Holy Prophet) stood in the middle part of her body for offering prayer for her.
