Descriptions

ثمّ رحلت عائدا إلى بغداد فوصلت إلى مدينة الموصل التي ذكرناها، فوجدت ركبها بخارجها متوجّهين إلى بغداد، وفيهم امرأة صالحة عابدة تسمّى بالسّت زاهدة، وهي من ذرّيّة الخلفاء، حجّت مراراً، وهي ملازمة الصوم سلّمت عليها، وكنت في جوارها، ومعها جملة من الفقراء يخدمونها، وفي هذه الوجهة توفّيت رحمة الله عليها وكانت وفاتها بزرود، ودفنت هنالك.1
