Did the jinn wail over the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, and is Umm Salamah's (may Allah be pleased with her) narration concerning that authentic?
Umm Salamah and Maymunah heard the jinn wailing over Husayn ibn Ali, and the narrators of Al-Tabarani are trustworthy. However, in one of the narrations, [it states]: "I heard the wailing of the jinn since the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, passed away, except for tonight. I do not see my son except that he has been seized," meaning Husayn, may Allah be pleased with him. In this narration, there is "Amr ibn Thabit ibn Hurmuz," who is a weak narrator.
