حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ نُمَيْرٍ ، وَاللَّفْظُ لِزُهَيْرٍ ، قَالَا : حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ وَهُوَ ابْنُ عُلَيَّةَ ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ، قَالَ : " مَا رَأَيْتُ أَحَدًا كَانَ أَرْحَمَ بِالْعِيَالِ ، مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : كَانَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ مُسْتَرْضِعًا لَهُ فِي عَوَالِي الْمَدِينَةِ ، فَكَانَ يَنْطَلِقُ وَنَحْنُ مَعَهُ ، فَيَدْخُلُ الْبَيْتَ ، وَإِنَّهُ لَيُدَّخَنُ ، وَكَانَ ظِئْرُهُ قَيْنًا ، فَيَأْخُذُهُ فَيُقَبِّلُهُ ، ثُمَّ يَرْجِعُ " ، قَالَ عَمْرٌو : فَلَمَّا تُوُفِّيَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ ، قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : إِنَّ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ابْنِي ، وَإِنَّهُ مَاتَ فِي الثَّدْيِ ، وَإِنَّ لَهُ لَظِئْرَيْنِ تُكَمِّلَانِ رَضَاعَهُ فِي الْجَنَّةِ " .
Anas bin Malik (RA) reported: I have never seen anyone more kind to one's family than Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) , and Ibrahim was sent to the suburb of Madinah for suckling. He used to go there and we accompanied him. He entered the house, and it was filled with smoke as his foster-father was a bricksmith. He took him (his son Ibrahim) and kissed him and then came back. 'Amr said that when Ibrahim died, Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said: Ibrahim is my son and he dies as a suckling babe. He has now two foster-mothers who would complete his suckling period in Paradise.
