Sahih Muslim 2455 (Book 44, Hadith 149) #13400
Compassion of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH)

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) showed compassion to Umm Sulaim, whose brother was killed while he was with the Prophet.

Anas reported that Allah's Apostle did not enter the house of any woman except that of his wives and that of Umm Sulaim. He used to visit her. It was said to him why it was so, whereupon he said: I feel great compassion for her. Her brother was killed while he was with me.
حَدَّثَنَا حَسَنٌ الْحُلْوَانِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَاصِمٍ، حَدَّثَنَا هَمَّامٌ، عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ عَبْدِ، اللَّهِ عَنْ أَنَسٍ، قَالَ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ لاَ يَدْخُلُ عَلَى أَحَدٍ مِنَ النِّسَاءِ إِلاَّ عَلَى أَزْوَاجِهِ إِلاَّ أُمِّ سُلَيْمٍ فَإِنَّهُ كَانَ يَدْخُلُ عَلَيْهَا فَقِيلَ لَهُ فِي ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ ‏ "‏ إِنِّي أَرْحَمُهَا قُتِلَ أَخُوهَا مَعِي

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the compassion of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). It is reported that Anas ibn Malik said that Allah's Apostle did not enter any woman's house except for his wives and Umm Sulaim. When asked why, he said it was because he felt great compassion for her. Her brother had been killed while in his company. This shows us how compassionate and kind the Prophet Muhammad was towards others, even those who were not related to him or part of his family. He showed mercy and kindness to all people regardless of their background or status in society, which is a lesson we can all learn from today.
