Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: A woman came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and with her was her son, who was ill. The woman said: "O Messenger of Allah! Pray to Allah Almighty to grant this son of mine recovery." The narrator says: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked the woman: "Has any child of yours died?" She said: "Yes, O Messenger of Allah!" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "Was it in the Jahiliyyah or in the time of Islam?" She said: "In the time of Islam." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "This is a strong shield, this is a strong shield, this is a strong shield."
Abu Ya'la recorded it. Its chain contains Abu Ubaydah al-Naji, who is da'if (weak).
