اُردوEn
عَنْ عَوْفِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ((أَنَا وَامْرَأَةٌ سَفْعَاءُ الْخَدَّيْنِ كَهَاتَيْنِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ)) (وَفِي لَفْظٍ: ((أَنَا وَامْرَأَةٌ سَفْعَاءُ فِي الْجَنَّةِ كَهَاتَيْنِ)) وَجَمَعَ بَيْنَ إِصْبَعَيْهِ السَّبَّابَةِ وَالْوُسْطَى) امْرَأَةٌ ذَاتُ مَنْصِبٍ وَجَمَالٍ آمَتْ مِنْ زَوْجِهَا حَبَسَتْ نَفْسَهَا عَلَى أَيْتَامِهَا حَتَّى بَانُوا أَوْ مَاتُوا.
Narrated by Sayyiduna Awf bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: I and the woman with dark cheeks will be like these two fingers, close to each other in Paradise on the Day of Resurrection. At the same time, he (peace and blessings be upon him) joined his index and middle fingers together as a gesture. That woman who possesses status and beauty, but after becoming a widow, restrains herself for the sake of her orphans, until they either become independent from her or pass away.
Brief Explanation
Benefits: … The meaning of "darkened cheeks" is that this woman abandoned adornment, beauty, and the comforts of prosperity, and continued to endure hardships in the service of her orphaned children, due to which her appearance changed.
In reality, this hadith is highlighting the greatness of those who take care of orphaned children.
