Similarly, Sayyiduna Nuh, Sayyiduna Ibraheem, Sayyiduna Musa and Sayyiduna ‘Isa عَـلَـيْـهِمُ الـصَّلٰوةُ وَالـسَّـلَام offered their condolences. Then, the Greatest and Holiest Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم spoke a couple of words after which an angel came near the Beloved and Blessed Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم and said, ‘O Abul Qaasim (صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم)!
