The Prophet ﷺ passed by with a group of his companions, and there was a small child on the road. When the child's mother saw the group approaching, she feared her son would be trampled, so she rushed forward saying, "My son, my son!" She ran and snatched him up.The companions said, "Messenger of Allah, this woman would never throw her son into the fire."The Prophet ﷺ calmed them and said, "Nor would Allah cast His beloved into the fire."
عمر النبي ﷺ في نفر من أصحابه، وصبي في الطريق، فلما رأت أمه القوم، خشيت على ولدها أن يوطأ، فأقبلت تسعى وتقول: ابني ابني، وسعت فأخذته، فقال القوم: يا رسول الله ما كانت هذه لتلقي ابنها في النار، قال: فخفضهم النبي ﷺ فقال: ولا الله عز وجل، لا يلقي حبيبه في النار.
Ahmad narrated it (12018, 13467), and Bazzar narrated it (Kashf Astar 3476), and Hakim graded it sahih (58/1, 177/4), all of them through routes from Humayd Tawil, from Anas, who related it. Its chain of transmission is sahih. Hakim said, "This is a sahih hadith according to the criteria of the two Shaykhs."
