لِامْرَأَةِ سَعْدٍ هَنِيئاً لَكِ يَا خَنْسَاءُ فَلَوْ لَمْ يُعْطِكِ اللَّهُ شَيْئاً إِلَّا ابْنَتَكِ أُمَّ الْحُسَيْنِ لَقَدْ أَعْطَاكِ اللَّهُ خَيْراً كَثِيراً إِنَّمَا مَثَلُ الْمَرْأَةِ الصَّالِحَةِ فِي النِّسَاءِ كَمَثَلِ الْغُرَابِ الْأَعْصَمِ فِي الْغِرْبَانِ وَ هُوَ الْأَبْيَضُ إِحْدَى الرِّجْلَيْنِ .
Translation
From him, from Muhammad Bin Ali, from Muhammad Bin Al Fuzayl, from Sa’ad Bin Abu Amro Al Jallab, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> having said to the wife of Sa’ad: ‘Congratulations to you, O Khansa’a! So even if Allah<sup>azwj</sup> does not Give you anything except for your daughter, Umm Al-Husayn, Allah<sup>azwj</sup> would have (still) Given you abundant goodness. But rather, the example of a righteous woman among the women is like the example of the ‘Chough’ crow among the crows, and it is white in one of its legs’.
