The birth of this noble child had a tremendous and different situation.
The mother was extremely healthier than she had been in all her previous deliverances.
A new light was sent in as they harvested more than ever before that year. Infact seven days after, the child was named Muhammad.
Meaning of the name "Gibrima" His first name is Muhammad.
