Hadith 1791
´Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with them) says that` the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whom do you consider to be childless? The people said: The one who does not have children (i.e., whose children do not survive). He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: He is not childless (his children will be there to help him in the Hereafter). Truly childless is the person who has not sent anything ahead from his children (i.e., none of his sons or daughters die before him). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Well, whom do you count as a wrestler among you? We said: A wrestler is the one whom men cannot overpower. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: No, a wrestler is the one who controls himself at the time of anger (i.e., does not say anything against wisdom with his tongue and does not raise his hand against anyone).
