The eminent should grieve for the lowly

1995 11-12 November-December 32 The eminent should grieve for the lowly (68) It happened that a woman of Medina, who used to clean the mosque, passed away. She was black-skinned and mentally deranged and there were few to perform her funeral. Those who came to it did not think it proper to inform the Prophet. When he finally heard about it, he asked to be informed of the death of any Muslim in future, irrespective of his or her status.
