(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا
وَكِيعٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا
شُعْبَةُ ، عَنْ
مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ قُرَّةَ , عَنْ
أَبِيهِ , أَنَّ رَجُلًا كَانَ يَأْتِي النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ , وَمَعَهُ ابْنٌ لَهُ ، فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " أَتُحِبُّهُ ؟ " فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، أَحَبَّكَ اللَّهُ كَمَا أُحِبُّهُ ، فَفَقَدَهُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَ : " مَا فَعَلَ ابْنُ فُلَانٍ ؟ " قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَاتَ , فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِأَبِيهِ : " أَمَا تُحِبُّ أَنْ لَا تَأْتِيَ بَابًا مِنْ أَبْوَابِ الْجَنَّةِ إِلَّا وَجَدْتَهُ يَنْتَظِرُكَ ؟ " فَقَالَ الرَّجُلُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، أَلَهُ خَاصَّةً أَمْ لِكُلِّنَا ؟ قَالَ : " بَلْ لِكُلِّكُمْ " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Qurrah that a man used to bring his son to the service of the Prophet (peace be upon him). Once, the Prophet (peace be upon him) asked this man, "Do you love your son?" He replied, "O Messenger of Allah! Just as I love him, may Allah love you in the same way." Then that man stopped attending the gatherings of the Prophet (peace be upon him). The Prophet (peace be upon him) asked me about that man. People informed him that his son had passed away. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said to him, "Do you not like that whichever gate of Paradise you go to, you find him waiting for you there?" A man asked, "O Messenger of Allah! Is this ruling specific to him or for all of us?" The Prophet (peace be upon him) replied, "It is for all of you."
