حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي اللَّيْثُ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ يَحْيَى بْنِ حَبَّانَ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ خَالَتِهِ أُمِّ حَرَامٍ بِنْتِ مِلْحَانَ، قَالَتْ نَامَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَوْمًا قَرِيبًا مِنِّي، ثُمَّ اسْتَيْقَظَ يَتَبَسَّمُ. فَقُلْتُ مَا أَضْحَكَكَ قَالَ " أُنَاسٌ مِنْ أُمَّتِي عُرِضُوا عَلَىَّ يَرْكَبُونَ هَذَا الْبَحْرَ الأَخْضَرَ، كَالْمُلُوكِ عَلَى الأَسِرَّةِ ". قَالَتْ فَادْعُ اللَّهَ أَنْ يَجْعَلَنِي مِنْهُمْ. فَدَعَا لَهَا، ثُمَّ نَامَ الثَّانِيَةَ، فَفَعَلَ مِثْلَهَا، فَقَالَتْ مِثْلَ قَوْلِهَا، فَأَجَابَهَا مِثْلَهَا. فَقَالَتِ ادْعُ اللَّهَ أَنْ يَجْعَلَنِي مِنْهُمْ. فَقَالَ " أَنْتِ مِنَ الأَوَّلِينَ ". فَخَرَجَتْ مَعَ زَوْجِهَا عُبَادَةَ بْنِ الصَّامِتِ غَازِيًا أَوَّلَ مَا رَكِبَ الْمُسْلِمُونَ الْبَحْرَ مَعَ مُعَاوِيَةَ، فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفُوا مِنْ غَزْوِهِمْ قَافِلِينَ فَنَزَلُوا الشَّأْمَ، فَقُرِّبَتْ إِلَيْهَا دَابَّةٌ لِتَرْكَبَهَا فَصَرَعَتْهَا فَمَاتَتْ.
ʿAbd Allah ibn Yusuf said: Al-Layth told me; Yahya narrated to us, from Muhammad ibn Yahya ibn Habban, from Anas ibn Malik, from his maternal aunt Umm Haram bint Milhan, who said: One day the Prophet slept near me, then awoke smiling. I asked, “What makes you smile?” He replied, “Some people of my community were shown to me, riding this green sea like kings on thrones.” She said, “Ask Allah to make me one of them.” He prayed for her, then slept again and had the same experience. She repeated her request, and he answered as before. She asked him to pray that she be among them; he said, “You are among the first.”
She went out with her husband ʿUbada ibn al-Samit on a military expedition, the first time Muslims sailed by sea with Muʿawiya. When they returned from the expedition and disembarked in Syria, a riding animal was brought for her. It threw her, and she died.

This is a separate transmission of the dream and Umm Haram’s later death after a sea expedition.
