حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مَعْمَرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ، عَنِ الْأَعْرَجِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ. وَعَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ حُجَيْرٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَحَدُهُمَا رِوَايَةً، قَالَ:
قَالَ سُلَيْمَانُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ: لَأُطِيفَنَّ اللَّيْلَةَ عَلَى مِائَةِ امْرَأَةٍ، كُلُّهُنَّ تَلِدُ غُلَامًا يُقَاتِلُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ، فَقَالَ لَهُ الْمَلَكُ: قُلْ: إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ، فَنَسِيَ فَطَافَ عَلَيْهِنَّ، فَلَمْ تَأْتِ مِنْهُنَّ امْرَأَةٌ، إِلَّا امْرَأَةٌ جَاءَتْ بِشِقِّ غُلَامٍ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ: وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ، لَوْ قَالَ: إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ، لَجَاءَتْ كُلُّ امْرَأَةٍ مِنْهُنَّ بِغُلَامٍ يُقَاتِلُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ، وَكَانَ دَرَكًا لَهُ فِي حَاجَتِهِ

✧ Sulayman ﷺ said: “I will surely go around tonight to a hundred women, each of whom will give birth to a boy who will fight in the path of Allah.” The angel said to him: “Say: ‘If Allah wills.’” But he forgot, so he went around to them, and none of them conceived except one woman who came with half a boy. The Prophet ﷺ said: “By the One in whose hand is my soul, had he said ‘If Allah wills,’ every woman among them would have come with a boy who fights in the path of Allah, and it would have been a means for him to attain his need.”
