كتاب البر والصلة والآداب
(47) Chapter: The Virtue Of One Whose Child Dies And He Seeks Reward
باب فَضْلِ مَنْ يَمُوتُ لَهُ وَلَدٌ فَيَحْتَسِبُهُ
Abu Huraira reported that a woman came to Allah’s Apostle (ﷺ) with her child and said:
Allah’s Apostle, invoke Allah’s blessing upon him for I have already buried three. He said: You have buried three! She said: Yes. Thereupon he (the Holy Prophet) said: You have, indeed, safeguarded yourself against the torment of Hell with a strong safeguard. ‘Umar has made a mention of his father, whereas others have not made a mention of his father.
