ذِكْرُ الْبَيَانِ بِأَنَّ الشَّهِيدَ فِي الْقِيَامَةِ يَشْفَعُ فِي سَبْعِينَ مِنْ أَهْلِ بَيْتِهِ

[Machine] "We entered upon Umm ad-Darda while we were young orphans, so she wiped our heads and said, 'Rejoice, O my sons, for I hope that you will be among the intercession of your father. For I heard Abu Darda say I heard the Messenger of Allahﷺ say, 'A martyr will intercede for seventy members of his household.'"  

ابن حبّان:٤٦٦٠أَخْبَرَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سُلَيْمَانَ الْمُعَدَّلُ بِالْفُسْطَاطِ حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرُ بْنُ مُسَافِرٍ التِّنِّيسِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ حَسَّانَ حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ رَبَاحٍ الذِّمَارِيُّ عَنْ نِمْرَانَ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ الذِّمَارِيِّ قَالَ

دَخَلْنَا عَلَى أُمِّ الدَّرْدَاءِ وَنَحْنُ أَيْتَامٌ صِغَارٌ فَمَسَحَتْ رُءُوسَنَا وَقَالَتْ أَبْشِرُوا يَا بَنِيَّ فَإِنِّي أَرْجُو أَنْ تَكُونُوا فِي شَفَاعَةِ أَبِيكُمْ فَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُ أَبَا الدَّرْدَاءِ يَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «الشَّهِيدُ يَشْفَعُ فِي سَبْعِينَ مِنْ أَهْلِ بَيْتِهِ»
