وَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ: حَدَّثَنَا زَيْدُ بْنُ الْحُبَابِ، حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ عُبَيْدَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا الْمُنْذِرُ بْنُ جَهْمٍ، عَنْ نَوْفَلِ بْنِ مُسَاحِقٍ، عَنْ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ، ؓ قَالَتْ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ:
« الرَّحِمُ شِجْنَةٌ بِحُجْزَةِ الرَّحْمَنِ تُنَاشِدُهُ حَقَّهَا، فَيَقُولُ: أَلَا تَرْضَيْنَ أَنْ أَصِلَ مَنْ وَصَلَكِ وَأَقْطَعَ مَنْ قَطَعَكِ، وَمَنْ وَصَلَكِ فَقَدْ وَصَلَنِي، وَمَنْ قَطَعَكِ فَقَدْ قَطَعَنِي

✧ The womb is a branch from the Merciful, holding onto His waist, pleading for its right. He says: 'Are you not content that I maintain ties with whoever maintains you and sever ties with whoever severs you? Whoever maintains you has maintained Me, and whoever severs you has severed Me.'
