حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ قَيْسٍ عَنْ طَاوُسٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ

مَا مِنْ مَوْلُودٍ إِلَّا يُولَدُ عَلَى الْفِطْرَةِ حَتَّى يَكُونَ أَبَوَاهُ اللَّذَانِ يُهَوِّدَانِهِ وَيُنَصِّرَانِهِ، كَمَا تُنْتِجُونَ أَنْعَامَكُمْ هَلْ تَكُونُ فِيهَا جَدْعَاءُ ؟ حَتَّى تَكُونُوا أَنْتُمْ تَجْدَعُونَهَا " قَالَ رَجُلٌ: فَأَيْنَ هُمْ؟ قَالَ: " اللهُ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا كَانُوا عَامِلِينَ.

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Every newborn is born in a state of fitrah (natural disposition), but it is their parents who make them Jews or Christians. It is like the way animals give birth to their young: do you find any among them that are born mutilated until you mutilate them? A man asked, 'Where are they (the parents)?' He said, 'Allah knows best what they have done.' Qays said, 'I do not see this man except as one who is predestined.'"
