(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا عَبْد اللَّهِ ، حَدَّثَنِي عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ فُضَيْلٍ ، عن مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ ، عَنْ زَاذَانَ ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ ، قَالَ : سَأَلَتْ خَدِيجَةُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ وَلَدَيْنِ مَاتَا لَهَا فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " هُمَا فِي النَّارِ " ، قَالَ : فَلَمَّا رَأَى الْكَرَاهِيَةَ فِي وَجْهِهَا قَالَ : " لَوْ رَأَيْتِ مَكَانَهُمَا لَأَبْغَضْتِهِمَا " ، قَالَتْ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، فَوَلَدِي مِنْكَ ؟ قَالَ : " فِي الْجَنَّةِ " ، قَالَ : ثُمَّ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " إِنَّ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَأَوْلَادَهُمْ فِي الْجَنَّةِ ، وَإِنَّ الْمُشْرِكِينَ وَأَوْلَادَهُمْ فِي النَّارِ " ، ثُمَّ قَرَأَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " 0 وَالَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَاتَّبَعَتْهُمْ ذُرِّيَّتُهُمْ بِإِيمَانٍ أَلْحَقْنَا بِهِمْ ذُرِّيَّاتِهِمْ 0 " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that once Sayyidah Khadijah (may Allah be pleased with her) asked the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) about her two children who had died during the time of ignorance. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Both of them are in Hell." Then, when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) saw the unpleasant effect of this on the face of Sayyidah Khadijah (may Allah be pleased with her), he said: "If you were to see their abode, you would also come to dislike them." She submitted: O Messenger of Allah! Then what about my children who are from you? He said: "They are in Paradise." Then he said: "The believers and their children will be in Paradise, and the polytheists and their children will be in Hell." After this, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) recited this verse: «﴿وَالَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَاتَّبَعَتْهُمْ ذُرِّيَّتُهُمْ بِإِيمَانٍ أَلْحَقْنَا بِهِمْ ذُرِّيَّتَهُمْ﴾ [الطور : 21]» "Those who believed and whose offspring followed them in faith, We shall join their offspring with them."
