"Alhadj, Hadjia's husband and Fatima's father, usually prays with them around 6:00 a.m.  But one day, his family waited for him for morning prayer, but in vain.  When Hadjia rushed into his room, Alhadh was in distress; he was sick.  She instructed Fatima to call thier oldest son, Ibrahim to come and take Alhadj to the hospital." - - Hausa Project
