Two of my sons died, so I said to Abu Hurairah, "Have you heard a hadith from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ that you can tell us to console our hearts regarding our deceased?"He replied, "Yes. Their little ones are the small swimmers of Paradise. One of them meets his father, or his parents, and takes hold of the edge of his garment or his hand, just as I am taking hold of the hem of this garment of yours, and he does not let go until Allah admits him and his father into Paradise."
حدثنا ابن أبي عدي عن سليمان التيمي عن أبي السليل
توفي ابنان فقلت لأبي هريرة سمعت من رسول الله ﷺ حديثا تحدثناه تطيب بنفسنا عن موتانا قال نعم صغارهم دعاميص الجنة يلقى أحدهم أباه أو أبويه فيأخذ بناحية ثوبه أو يده كما آخذ بصنفة ثوبك هذا فلا يفارقه حتى يدخله وأباه الجنة
