A man said to him: ‘O Amīr al-Mūʾminīn, you detained the men of Quraysh for the sake of this elderly woman.’ ʿUmar replied: ʿWoe to you! Do you know who this woman is?’ The man said: ʿNo.’ Umar said, ʿThis woman, by Allāh, her complaint was heard by Allah from above the seven heavens. This is Khawlah Bint Thaʾlabah.
