6599. Narrated Abū Hurairah رضي الله عنه: Allāh's Messenger ﷺ said, "No child is born but on Al-Fitrāh (i.e., Islāmic Faith of Monotheism), but its parents turn it into a Jew or a Christian, just as an animal gives birth, do you find among its offspring a mutilated one before you mutilate it yourself?"

Arabic text

6599 - حَدَّثَنِي إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ، عَنْ هَمَّامٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «مَا مِنْ مَوْلُودٍ إِلَّا يُولَدُ عَلَى الفِطْرَةِ، فَأَبَوَاهُ يُهَوِّدَانِهِ، وَيُنَصِّرَانِهِ، كَمَا تُنْتِجُونَ البَهِيمَةَ، هَلْ تَجِدُونَ فِيهَا مِنْ جَدْعَاءَ، حَتَّى تَكُونُوا أَنْتُمْ تَجْدَعُونَهَا؟» قَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ: أَفَرَأَيْتَ مَنْ يَمُوتُ وَهُوَ صَغِيرٌ؟ قَالَ: «اللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا كَانُوا عَامِلِينَ»
