English translation

[6701] 154 - (2635) It was narrated that Abû Hâssân said: "I said to Abû Hurairah: 'Two of my sons have died. Can you narrate to me any Hadîth from the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ which will console us for our loss?' He said: 'Yes: (the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said:)" "Their little ones are the little ones of Paradise. When one of them meets his father – or his parents – he takes hold of his garment – or his hand – as I am taking told of the hem of your garment, and he does not let go until Allâh admits him and his father to Paradise."

Arabic text

154 - (2635) حَدَّثَنَا سُوَيْدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْأَعْلَى - وَتَقَارَبَا فِي اللَّفْظِ - قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا الْمُعْتَمِرُ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي السَّلِيلِ، عَنْ أَبِي حَسَّانَ، قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِأَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ: إِنَّهُ قَدْ مَاتَ لِيَ ابْنَانِ، فَمَا أَنْتَ مُحَدِّثِي عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِحَدِيثٍ تُطَيِّبُ بِهِ أَنْفُسَنَا عَنْ مَوْتَانَا؟ قَالَ: قَالَ: نَعَمْ، «صِغَارُهُمْ دَعَامِيصُ الْجَنَّةِ يَتَلَقَّى أَحَدُهُمْ أَبَاهُ - أَوْ قَالَ أَبَوَيْهِ -، فَيَأْخُذُ بِثَوْبِهِ - أَوْ قَالَ بِيَدِهِ -، كَمَا آخُذُ أَنَا بِصَنِفَةِ ثَوْبِكَ هَذَا، فَلَا يَتَنَاهَى - أَوْ قَالَ فَلَا يَنْتَهِي - حَتَّى يُدْخِلَهُ اللهُ وَأَبَاهُ الْجَنَّةَ» وَفِي رِوَايَةِ سُوَيْدٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو السَّلِيلِ. وحَدَّثَنِيهِ عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى يَعْنِي ابْنَ سَعِيدٍ، عَنِ التَّيْمِيِّ بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ. وَقَالَ: فَهَلْ سَمِعْتَ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ شَيْئًا تُطَيِّبُ بِهِ أَنْفُسَنَا عَنْ مَوْتَانَا؟ قَالَ: نَعَمْ
