كَانَ يَخْدُمُ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَمَرِضَ‏.‏ فَأَتَاهُ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَعُودُهُ فَقَالَ ‏ "‏ أَسْلِمْ ‏"‏‏.‏ فَأَسْلَمَ‏.

“A Jewish boy used to serve the Prophet ﷺ and became ill. The Prophet ﷺ went to pay him a visit and said to him, "Embrace Islam," and he did embrace Islam. Al-Musaiyab said: When Abu Talib was on his deathbed, the Prophet ﷺ visited him”
