عَنْ عَائِشَةَ أُمِّ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا قَالَتْ دُعِيَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِلَى جَنَازَةِ غُلَامٍ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ طُوبَى لِهَذَا عُصْفُورٌ مِنْ عَصَافِيرِ الْجَنَّةِ لَمْ يُدْرِكِ الشَّرَّ وَلَمْ يَعْمَلْهُ قَالَ ((أَوْ غَيْرُ ذَلِكَ يَا عَائِشَةُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ خَلَقَ لِلْجَنَّةِ أَهْلًا خَلَقَهُمْ لَهَا وَهُمْ فِي أَصْلَابِ آبَائِهِمْ وَخَلَقَ لِلنَّارِ أَهْلًا خَلَقَهُمْ لَهَا وَهُمْ فِي أَصْلَابِ آبَائِهِمْ))
It is narrated from Umm al-Mu'mineen Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) was called towards an Ansari child. I said: O Messenger of Allah! Glad tidings for him, he is one of the birds of Paradise, he neither encountered evil nor acted upon it. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) said: Aisha! Do you have anything else to say besides this? Surely Allah Almighty created people for Paradise when they were still in the loins of their fathers, and likewise determined people for Hell when they were still in the loins of their fathers.
