Children born of adultery

Sayyidah Aishah Siddiqah (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "He is the worst of the three if he does the deed of his parents." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) meant the child born of fornication.
Ahmad recorded it from Aswad bin Amir, from Ibrahim bin Ishaq, from Ibrahim bin Ubayd bin Rifa'ah. I do not know Ibrahim bin Ishaq; the rest of its narrators are the narrators of the Sahih.

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The child born of fornication is the worst of the three if he does the deed of his parents."
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir and al-Mu'jam al-Awsat. Its chain contains Muhammad bin Abi Layla, who had a poor memory, and Mandal, who was declared trustworthy though there is weakness in him.

Sayyidah Maymunah (may Allah be pleased with her), the wife of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), narrates: I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "My Ummah will continue upon goodness as long as children born of fornication do not become widespread among them; when children born of fornication become widespread among them, Allah Almighty will soon envelop them all in punishment."
Ahmad, Abu Ya'la and al-Tabarani recorded it. He (al-Tabarani) recorded these words: "My Ummah will continue upon goodness, holding firmly to its affairs, as long as (children born of fornication) do not appear (among them)." Its chain contains Muhammad bin Abd al-Rahman bin Labibah, whom Ibn Hibban declared thiqah (trustworthy) and Yahya bin Ma'in declared da'if (weak); and Muhammad bin Ishaq has explicitly stated that he heard it directly, so the hadith is sahih (authentic) or hasan (good).

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates this saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "The one who is disobedient (to his parents), the habitual drinker of wine, the one who reminds others of his favours, and the child born of fornication will not enter Paradise."
(Allamah al-Haythami says:) I say:
Al-Nasa'i (may Allah have mercy on him) recorded it, but he did not record the words: "the child born of fornication."
Ahmad and al-Tabarani recorded it. Its chain contains Jaban, whom Ibn Hibban declared thiqah (trustworthy); the rest of Ahmad's narrators are the narrators of the Sahih.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him): The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "A child born of fornication will not enter Paradise, nor anyone of his descendants up to seven generations."
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Awsat. Its chain contains al-Husayn bin Idris, who is da'if (weak).

Sayyidah Aishah Siddiqah (may Allah be pleased with her) reports this saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "Nothing of the sins of his parents applies to a child born of fornication." Then he recited this verse: "No bearer of burdens will bear the burden of another."
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Awsat. Its chain contains Ja'far bin Muhammad bin Ja'far al-Mada'ini, and I do not know him.

Abu al-Walid al-Qurashi says: I was with Bilal bin Abi Burdah when a man from the tribe of Abd al-Qays came to him and said: "May Allah keep the emir upright! The people of al-Taff do not pay the zakah on their wealth." He said: "Then what happened?" He said: "I came to know of it, so I informed the emir." He said: "Where are you from?" He said: "From the tribe of Abd al-Qays." He asked: "What is your name?" He said: "So-and-so, son of so-and-so." So Bilal bin Abi Burdah wrote to the chief of his police and said: "Send someone to the tribe of Abd al-Qays and ask them about so-and-so, son of so-and-so: how is his lineage regarded among them?" The messenger returned and said: "I found that his lineage is spoken against." So he said: "Allahu Akbar! My father narrated this hadith to me from my grandfather, Sayyiduna Abu Musa al-Ash'ari (may Allah be pleased with him): The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'No one will seek out (the hidden faults) of people except one born of fornication, or one in whom there is some trace of it.'" The narrator Abu al-Walid reported the word "la yas'a" (meaning: will strive) in place of "la yabghi".
Al-Tabarani recorded it. I do not know the narrator Abu al-Walid al-Qurashi, and the rest of its narrators are thiqat (trustworthy).
