reported that she saw a light emitting from her that lit the palaces of Syria. The young couple were very happy together. Everything Abdul Muttalib told Abdullah about Aminah proved to be true and Abdullah was as delighted with Aminah as she was with him.
Two months after their marriage Abdullah joined a trading caravan destined for Al Sham. Today, Al
Sham is a conglomerate of several countries known to us as Syria, Jordan and Palestine. On the
return journey, Abdullah was taken seriously ill in Yathrib. Abdullah had many relatives in Yathrib and so the caravan left him in their care and continued on to Mecca without him.
The Death of Abdullah

A messenger bearing news of Abdullah's illness was sent on in advance of the caravan and as soon

as Abd Al Muttalib heard

the disturbing news he sent his

eldest son, Harith to Yathrib to bring

Abdullah home. Harith was not destined to see his brother again as Abdullah died before he reached Yathrib and was buried near his cousins, the children of Adiyy, the son of Najjar in Yathrib in the house belonging to An-Nabigha Al-Ju'di.

Harith returned to Mecca and conveyed the saddening news to his father and Aminah whereupon
great sorrow fell upon the entire family.
