It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever sends ahead (to Allah) three of his children who had not yet reached puberty, they will be a strong fortress for him against the Fire of Hell." At this Sayyiduna Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) said: O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! I have sent ahead two of my children. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "And for two (who die) there is the same reward." Then the leader of the Qur'an reciters, Sayyiduna Ubayy bin Ka'b (may Allah be pleased with him), said: O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! I have sent ahead one child. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "And for one as well (there is this virtue); but this reward is conditional on (patience and acceptance) at the first moment of the shock."
