Al-Matalib al-'Aliyah 1143 — The command to take children and slaves
اُردوEn
وَقَالَ الْحُمَيْدِيُّ : حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ ، أَخْبَرَنِي الْمُنْكَدِرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْمُنْكَدِرِ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، أَنَّهُ قِيلَ لَهُ : أَتَحُجُّ بِالصِّبْيَانِ ؟ فَقَالَ : نَعَمْ ، أَعْرِضُهُمْ لِلهِ تَعَالَى .
It is narrated from Imam al-Humaydi (may Allah have mercy on him) that Sufyan narrated to us; al-Munkadir bin Muhammad bin al-Munkadir informed him on the authority of his father (the renowned Successor Muhammad bin al-Munkadir, may Allah have mercy on him) that he was asked: "Do you also take small children with you to attain the blessing of Hajj?" He replied: "Yes, I (by keeping them with me on this blessed journey) present them before Allah, the Blessed and Exalted (so that they may grow up in the shade of His grace and generosity)."
This enlightening report makes a scholarly point clear: the righteous predecessors took special care, for the spiritual upbringing of children and for mercy to descend upon them, to take them from childhood to the rites of Islam and to sacred places such as those of Hajj, so that their souls might receive the nourishment of faith and they might be accepted in the court of Allah.
