وَقَالَ أَبُو يَعْلَى: حَدَّثَنَا وَهْبٌ - هُوَ ابْنُ بَقِيَّةَ نَبَا خَالِدٌ، عَنْ حُسَيْنٍ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ؓ، قَالَ: إِنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ:
« مِنْ تِسْعٍ وَتِسْعِينَ امْرَأَةً وَاحِدَةٌ فِي الْجَنَّةِ، وَبَقِيَّتُهُنَّ فِي النَّارِ ». فَاشْتَدَّ ذَلِكَ عَلَى مَنْ حَضَرَ مِنَ الْمُهَاجِرِينَ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: « إِنَّ الْمُسْلِمَةَ إِذَا حَمَلَتْ فَإِنَّ لَهَا أَجْرَ الصَّائِمِ الْقَائِمِ الْمُحْرِمِ الْمُجَاهِدِ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ تَعَالَى. فَإِذَا وَضَعَتْ فَإِنَّ لَهَا فِي أَوَّلِ رَضْعَةٍ أَجْرَ حَيَاةِ نَسَمَةٍ

✧ "Out of ninety-nine women, one is in Paradise, and the rest are in the Fire." This weighed heavily on those present from the Emigrants, so the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Indeed, when a Muslim woman becomes pregnant, she has the reward of one who fasts, stands in prayer, is in a state of ihram, and strives in the path of Allah, the Exalted. When she gives birth, then for her in the first breastfeeding is the reward of giving life to a soul."
