Mishkat al-Masabih 4939 — Paradise Lies Under the Feet of Mothers
وَعَن معاويةَ بن جاهِمةُ أَنَّ جَاهِمَةَ جَاءَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَرَدْتُ أَنْ أَغْزُوَ وَقَدْ جِئْتُ أَسْتَشِيرُكَ. فَقَالَ: «هَلْ لَكَ مِنْ أُمٍّ؟» قَالَ: نَعَمْ. قَالَ: «فَالْزَمْهَا فَإِنَّ الْجَنَّةَ عِنْدَ رِجْلِهَا» . رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ وَالنَّسَائِيُّ وَالْبَيْهَقِيّ فِي «شعب الْإِيمَان»
It is narrated from Muawiyah bin Jahimah that Jahimah (may Allah be pleased with him) came to the service of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) and said, "O Messenger of Allah! I want to consult you about participating in jihad." The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) asked, "Do you have a mother?" He replied, "Yes!" The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, "Go! Stay with her, for Paradise is at her feet." Its chain is authentic; narrated by Ahmad, al-Nasa'i, and al-Bayhaqi in Shu'ab al-Iman.
