Narrator:Abu Sa‘īd al-Khudri

حَدَّثَنَا بُنْدَارٌ، حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، عَنْ عَامِرٍ الأَحْوَلِ، عَنْ أَبِي الصِّدِّيقِ النَّاجِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏

"‏ الْمُؤْمِنُ إِذَا اشْتَهَى الْوَلَدَ فِي الْجَنَّةِ كَانَ حَمْلُهُ وَوَضْعُهُ وَسِنُّهُ فِي سَاعَةٍ كَمَا يَشْتَهِي ‏"

Abu Sa'eed Al-Khudri narrated that the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said:

"The believer, when he desires a child in Paradise, he shall be carried (in pregnancy), born, and complete his aging in an hour as he desires."

The people of knowledge disagreed concerning this, so some of them said that in Paradise there is intercourse but no births. It has been reported like this from Tawus, Mujahid and Ibrahim AnNakha'i. Muhammad said: "Concerning the Hadith of the Prophet SAW: 'When the believer desires a child in Paradise, it shall be in an hour as he desires' Ishaq bin Ibrahim said: 'But he will not desire." Muhammad said: "And it has been reported from Abu Razin Al- 'Uqaili from the Prophet SAW that he said: 'Indeed the people of Paradise shall not have children therein."

Reported by At-Tirmidhi (No. 2563), Ibn Majah (No. 4338), Ahmad (No. 10641, 11339) and Ad-Darimi (No. 2712).

Al-Mubarakfuri — Tuhfat al-Ahwadhi

قَوْلُهُ : ( كَانَ حَمْلُهُ ) أَيْ حَمْلُ الْوَلَدِ ( وَوَضْعُهُ وَسِنُّهُ ) أَيْ كَمَالُ سِنِّهِ , وَهُوَ الثَّلَاثُونَ سَنَةً ( كَمَا يَشْتَهِي ) مِنْ أَنْ يَكُونَ ذَكَرًا أَوْ أُنْثَى أَوْ نَحْوَ ذَلِكَ. قَوْلُهُ : ( هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ ) وَأَخْرَجَهُ أَحْمَدُ وَابْنُ مَاجَهْ وَابْنُ حِبَّانَ وَالدَّارِمِيُّ. قَوْلُهُ : ( وَقَالَ مُحَمَّدٌ ) هُوَ الْإِمَامُ الْبُخَارِيُّ ( قَالَ إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ) هُوَ اِبْنُ رَاهْوَيْهِ ( وَلَكِنْ لَا يَشْتَهِي ) هَذَا هُوَ مَقُولُ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ( عَنْ أَبِي رَزِينٍ الْعُقَيْلِيِّ ) صَحَابِيٌّ مَشْهُورٌ اِسْمُهُ لَقِيطُ اِبْنُ صَبِرَةَ ( إِنَّ أَهْلَ الْجَنَّةِ لَا يَكُونُ لَهُمْ فِيهَا وَلَدٌ ) لَمْ أَقِفْ عَلَى مَنْ أَ…
