English translation

[6768] 31 - (...) It was narrated that 'Aîshah, the Mother of the Believers, said: "The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ was called to the funeral of an Anşârî boy and I said: 'O Messenger of Allâh, glad tidings for this (boy), one of the little birds of Paradise. He did not do any evil or reach the age of doing evil.' He said: 'It may be otherwise, O 'Aîshah, for Allâh created people for Paradise, He created them for it when they were in their fathers' loins. And He created people for the Fire, He created them for it when they were in their fathers' loins.'"

31 - (2662) حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ طَلْحَةَ بْنِ يَحْيَى، عَنْ عَمَّتِهِ عَائِشَةَ بِنْتِ طَلْحَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ أُمِّ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ، قَالَتْ: دُعِيَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِلَى جَنَازَةِ صَبِيٍّ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ، فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ طُوبَى لِهَذَا، عُصْفُورٌ مِنْ عَصَافِيرِ الْجَنَّةِ لَمْ يَعْمَلِ السُّوءَ وَلَمْ يُدْرِكْهُ، قَالَ: «أَوَ غَيْرَ ذَلِكَ، يَا عَائِشَةُ إِنَّ اللهَ خَلَقَ لِلْجَنَّةِ أَهْلًا، خَلَقَهُمْ لَهَا وَهُمْ فِي أَصْلَابِ آبَائِهِمْ، وَخَلَقَ لِلنَّارِ أَهْلًا، خَلَقَهُمْ لَهَا وَهُمْ فِي أَصْلَابِ آبَائِهِمْ»،
