حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ عَبْدِ الْبَاقِي الْمِصِّيصِيُّ ثنا هَارُونُ بْنُ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَبِي الزَّرْقَاءِ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ مَيْسَرَةَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنَ قُرَّةَ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ

كَانَ نَبِيُّ اللهِ ﷺ إِذَا جَلَسَ جَلَسَ إِلَيْهِ نَفَرٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ وَفِيهِمْ رَجُلٌ لَهُ ابْنٌ صَغِيرٌ يَأْتِيَهِ مِنْ خَلْفِ ظَهْرِهِ يَقْعُدُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ إِلَى أَنْ هَلَكَ الصَّبِيُّ فَامْتَنَعَ الرَّجُلُ أَنْ يَحْضُرَ الْحَلْقَةَ يَذْكُرُ اللهَ وَيَحْزَنُ عَلَيْهِ فَفَقَدَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَقَالَ «مَا لِي لَا أَرَى فُلَانًا؟» فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ بُنَيُّهُ الَّذِي رَأَيْتَ هَلَكَ فَمَنَعَهُ ذَلِكَ مِنْ حُضُورِ الْحَلْقَةِ فَلَقِيَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَسَأَلَهُ عَنْهُ فَأُخْبِرَ أَنَّهُ قَدْ هَلَكَ فَعَزَّاهُ عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ يَا فُلَانُ أَيُّهُمَا كَانَ أَحَبَّ إِلَيْكَ أَنْ تَتَمَتَّعَ بِهِ عُمُرَكَ أَوْ لَا تَأْتِي غَدًا بَابًا مِنْ أَبْوَابِ الْجَنَّةِ إِلَّا وَجَدْتَهُ قَدْ سَبَقَكَ إِلَيْهِ يَفْتَحُ لَكَ فَقَالَ يَا نَبِيَّ اللهِ بَلْ يَسْبِقُنِي إِلَى أَبْوَابِ الْجَنَّةِ فَيَفْتَحُهَا لِي أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ قَالَ «فَذَلِكَ لَكَ» فَقَامَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ جَعَلَنِي اللهُ فِدَاكَ هَذَا لِفُلَانٍ خَاصَّةً أَوْ لِمَنْ هَلَكَ لَهُ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ فَرَطٌ كَانَ ذَلِكَ لَهُ؟ قَالَ «بَلْ كُلُّ مَنْ هَلَكَ لَهُ فَرَطٌ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ كَانَ ذَلِكَ لَهُ»

✧ When the Prophet of God ﷺ sat, a group of his companions would sit with him. Among them was a man who had a small son who would come to him from behind his back and sit in front of him, until the boy died. The man then refrained from attending the circle, remembering God and grieving over him. The Prophet ﷺ missed him and said, “Why do I not see so-and-so?” They said, “O Messenger of God, his young son whom you saw has died, and that has kept him from attending the circle.” The Prophet ﷺ met him and asked about him, and was told that he had died. He consoled him, then said, “O so-and-so, which would you prefer: to enjoy him for your entire life, or that tomorrow you will not come to any gate of the gates of Paradise except that you find him already there ahead of you, opening it for you?” He said, “O Prophet of God, that he precedes me to the gates of Paradise and opens them for me is dearer to me.” He said, “That is yours.” A man from the Ansar stood up and said, “O Messenger of God, may God make me your ransom, is this for so-and-so specifically, or for every Muslim whose child has died as a forerunner?” He said, “Rather, for every Muslim whose child has died as a forerunner, that will be his.”
