[Machine] I went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in the delegation of Kindah, and he asked me, "Do you have any children?" I said, "Yes, I have a son who was born to me on the way to you, from the daughter of Jammad." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Do not say that, for in them is a delight for the eyes and a reward when they are taken away. And if you were to say that, they would be sad and unfortunate. They would be sad and unfortunate."
قَدِمْتُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فِي وَفْدِ كِنْدَةَ فَقَالَ لِي هَلْ لَكَ مِنْ وَلَدٍ؟ قُلْتُ غُلَامٌ وُلِدَ لِي فِي مَخْرَجِي إِلَيْكَ مِنَ ابْنَةِ جَمْدٍ وَلَوَدِدْتُ أَنَّ مَكَانَهُ شَبِعَ الْقَوْمُ قَالَ لَا تَقُولَنَّ ذَلِكَ فَإِنَّ فِيهِمْ قُرَّةَ عَيْنٍ وَأَجْرًا إِذَا قُبِضُوا ثُمَّ لَئِنْ قُلْتَ ذَاكَ إِنَّهُمْ لَمَجْبَنَةٌ مَحْزَنَةٌ إِنَّهُمْ لَمَجْبَنَةٌ مَحْزَنَةٌ
