ahmad:15595Wakīʿ > Shuʿbah > Muʿāwiyah b. Qurrah from his father

[Machine] A man used to come to the Prophet ﷺ with his son. The Prophet ﷺ asked him, "Do you love him?" The man replied, "O Messenger of Allah, may Allah love you as I love him." The Prophet ﷺ then lost the child and asked, "What happened to the son of so-and-so?" They replied, "O Messenger of Allah, he passed away." The Prophet ﷺ said to his father, "Do you not want to find him waiting for you at the gate of Paradise whenever you enter?" A man asked, "O Messenger of Allah, is this specific to him or for all of us?" The Prophet ﷺ replied, "No, it is for all of you."

[Machine] A man used to come to the Prophet ﷺ with his son. The Prophet ﷺ asked him, "Do you love him?" The man replied, "O Messenger of Allah, may Allah love you as I love him."
