Musnad of Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him)
Musnad Ahmad 7137 — Musnad of Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with)
(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ ، عَنْ هِشَامٍ ، عَنِ ابْنِ سِيرِينَ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، قَالَ : قَالَ سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ دَاوُدَ : أَطُوفُ اللَّيْلَةَ عَلَى مِائَةِ امْرَأَةٍ ، تَلِدُ كُلُّ وَاحِدَةٍ مِنْهُنَّ غُلَامًا يُقَاتِلُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ ، وَلَمْ يَسْتَثْنِ ، فَمَا وَلَدَتْ إِلَّا وَاحِدَةٌ مِنْهُنَّ بِشِقِّ إِنْسَانٍ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " لَوْ اسْتَثْنَى ، لَوُلِدَ لَهُ مِائَةُ غُلَامٍ كُلُّهُمْ يُقَاتِلُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ " .
Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that once Hazrat Sulaiman (peace be upon him) said: "Tonight I will go around to my wives, and each one of them will give birth to a boy who will fight in the path of Allah." On this occasion, he forgot to say insha'Allah (if Allah wills), so only one of his wives gave birth to an incomplete child. Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) says that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "If he had said insha'Allah, then truly a hundred sons would have been born to him, and all of them would have fought in the path of Allah."
