بَابُ الْوَالِدَاتُ رَحِيمَاتٌChapter: Mothers Are Compassionate
Hadith 89
حَدَّثَنَا مُسْلِمُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ فَضَالَةَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا بَكْرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ الْمُزَنِيُّ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ: جَاءَتِ امْرَأَةٌ إِلَى عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا، فَأَعْطَتْهَا عَائِشَةُ ثَلاَثَ تَمَرَاتٍ، فَأَعْطَتْ كُلَّ صَبِيٍّ لَهَا تَمْرَةً، وَأَمْسَكَتْ لِنَفْسِهَا تَمْرَةً، فَأَكَلَ الصِّبْيَانُ التَّمْرَتَيْنِ وَنَظَرَا إِلَى أُمِّهِمَا، فَعَمَدَتْ إِلَى التَّمْرَةِ فَشَقَّتْهَا، فَأَعْطَتْ كُلَّ صَبِيٍّ نِصْفَ تَمْرَةٍ، فَجَاءَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَخْبَرَتْهُ عَائِشَةُ فَقَالَ: ”وَمَا يُعْجِبُكِ مِنْ ذَلِكَ؟ لَقَدْ رَحِمَهَا اللَّهُ بِرَحْمَتِهَا صَبِيَّيْهَا.“
Narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that a woman came to Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) (to ask for something), so she gave her three dates. She gave one date each to her two children and kept one for herself. After eating their dates, the children began to look at their mother. The woman took her date, split it into two pieces, and gave half to each child (and did not eat anything herself). The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) came, so Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) mentioned this incident to him. He (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "What amazes you about this? Surely Allah has shown mercy to her because she showed mercy to her children."
