عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ قُرَّةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ أَنَّ رَجُلًا كَانَ يَأْتِي النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَمَعَهُ ابْنٌ لَهُ فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَتُحِبُّهُ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَحَبَّكَ اللَّهُ كَمَا أُحِبُّهُ فَفَقَدَهُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ مَا فَعَلَ ابْنُ فُلَانٍ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَاتَ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِأَبِيهِ أَمَا تُحِبُّ أَنْ لَا تَأْتِيَ بَابًا مِنْ أَبْوَابِ الْجَنَّةِ إِلَّا وَجَدْتَهُ يَنْتَظِرُكَ فَقَالَ الرَّجُلُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَلَهُ خَاصَّةً أَوْ لِكُلِّنَا قَالَ بَلْ لِكُلِّكُمْ
Sayyiduna Qurrah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that a man used to come to the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), and his child would be with him. One day, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to him: "Do you love him?" He replied: "O Messenger of Allah! May Allah love you as I love him." Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) missed him and asked: "What happened to the son of so-and-so?" The people said: "O Messenger of Allah! He has passed away." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to his father: "Do you not like that whenever you come to any door of Paradise, you find your child waiting for you there?" A man asked: "O Messenger of Allah! Is this only for him or for all of us?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) replied: "Why not, it is for all of you."
