al-Matalib al-'Aliyah 972

Translation

✧ The Prophet ﷺ said to the Ansar ؓ: "What is the meaning of 'raqūb' among you?" They said: "The one who has no child." He said: "That is not the raqūb. The raqūb is the one who comes to his Lord - Mighty and Glorious - and has not sent ahead any of his children."
