Deceased minor children are glad tidings for parents; virtue of parents who lose two or three minors
Hadith 1555
- (ما من مسلِمَينِ يموتُ لهما ثلاثةُ أطفالٍ لم يبلغُوا الحنثَ، إلا جِيءَ بهم حتّى يُوقفُوا على باب الجنّة، فيقالُ لهم: ادخلوا الجنّة، فيقولون: أندخلُ ولم يدخل أبوانَا؟! فيقالُ لهم- فلا أدري في الثّانيةِ-: ادخلوا الجنة وآباؤكم، قال: فذلك قولُ الله عزّ وجلّ: (فما تنفعُهم شفاعةُ الشّافِعين) ؛ قالَ: نفعَتِ الآباءَ شفاعةُ أولادِهم) .
Lady Habibah or Umm Habibah (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates that we were sitting in the house of Lady Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) entered the house and said: "If any Muslim couple (i.e., husband and wife) have three children who die before reaching maturity, those children will be brought to the gate of Paradise and it will be said to them: Enter Paradise. They will say: Shall we enter Paradise without our parents? It will be said to them: (Alright) you and your parents enter Paradise." This is the meaning of Allah Almighty's statement: «فَمَا تَنْفَعُهُمْ شَفَاعَةُ الشّٰفِعِيْنَ» "The intercession of the children will benefit their parents."
