Messenger of Allah, men receive your instructions; kindly allocate at your convenience a day for us also, on which we would come to you and you would teach us what Allah has taught you. He said: You assemble on such and such a day. They assembled and Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to them and taught them what Allah had taught him and he then said: No woman amongst you who sends her three children as her forerunners (in the Hereafter) but they would serve him as a protection against Hell-Fire. A woman said: What about two and two and two? Thereupon Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Even if they are two and two and two.

Some women requested the Prophet ﷺ to fix a day for them as the men were taking all his time. On that he promised them one day for religious lessons and commandments. Once during such a lesson the Prophet said, "A woman whose three children die will be shielded by them from the Hell fire." On that a woman asked, "If only two die?" He replied, "Even two (will shield her from the Hell-fire).

البخاري:١٠١حَدَّثَنَا آدَمُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي ابْنُ الأَصْبَهَانِيِّ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا صَالِحٍ ذَكْوَانَ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ

قَالَتِ النِّسَاءُ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ غَلَبَنَا عَلَيْكَ الرِّجَالُ فَاجْعَلْ لَنَا يَوْمًا مِنْ نَفْسِكَ فَوَعَدَهُنَّ يَوْمًا لَقِيَهُنَّ فِيهِ فَوَعَظَهُنَّ وَأَمَرَهُنَّ فَكَانَ فِيمَا قَالَ لَهُنَّ مَا مِنْكُنَّ امْرَأَةٌ تُقَدِّمُ ثَلاَثَةً مِنْ وَلَدِهَا إِلاَّ كَانَ لَهَا حِجَابًا مِنَ النَّارِ فَقَالَتِ امْرَأَةٌ وَاثْنَيْنِ فَقَالَ وَاثْنَيْنِ

A day for teaching women and the reward of losing children

bukhari:7310Musaddad > Abū ʿAwānah > ʿAbd al-Raḥmān b. al-Aṣbahānī > Abū Ṣāliḥ Dhakwān > Abū Saʿīd

[AI] A woman came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ, the men have taken all the benefit of your hadith, so appoint for us from your time a day on which we may come to you and you may teach us from what Allah ﷻ has taught you." So he said, "Gather on such-and-such a day in such-and-such a place." They gathered, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to them and taught them from what Allah ﷻ had taught him. Then he said, "There is no woman among you who sends ahead three of her children except that they will be a shield for her from the Fire." A woman among them said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and two?" She repeated it twice, then he said, "And two, and two, and two."

البخاري:٧٣١٠حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ الأَصْبَهَانِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ ذَكْوَانَ عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ

جَاءَتِ امْرَأَةٌ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَتْ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، ذَهَبَ الرِّجَالُ بِحَدِيثِكَ، فَاجْعَلْ لَنَا مِنْ نَفْسِكَ يَوْمًا نَأْتِيكَ فِيهِ تُعَلِّمُنَا مِمَّا عَلَّمَكَ اللَّهُ. فَقَالَ: «اجْتَمِعْنَ فِي يَوْمِ كَذَا وَكَذَا، فِي مَكَانِ كَذَا وَكَذَا.» فَاجْتَمَعْنَ، فَأَتَاهُنَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَعَلَّمَهُنَّ مِمَّا عَلَّمَهُ اللَّهُ. ثُمَّ قَالَ: «مَا مِنْكُنَّ امْرَأَةٌ تُقَدِّمُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهَا مِنْ وَلَدِهَا ثَلاَثَةً إِلاَّ كَانَ لَهَا حِجَابًا مِنَ النَّارِ.» فَقَالَتِ امْرَأَةٌ مِنْهُنَّ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، اثْنَيْنِ؟ قَالَ: فَأَعَادَتْهَا مَرَّتَيْنِ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: «وَاثْنَيْنِ، وَاثْنَيْنِ، وَاثْنَيْنِ.»

[Machine] On the authority of the Prophet, may peace and blessings be upon him, a woman said to the Prophet, may peace and blessings be upon him, "Make a day for us from you." He said, "A day such and such, in a place such and such." So he went to them and taught them the Sunnah. And he said, "Indeed, whenever a woman advances between two men, they become a barrier for her from the Fire." A woman asked, "O Messenger of Allah, does this apply to one or two men?" He remained silent. She asked again, "O Messenger of Allah, does this apply to one or two men?" He said, "Or two men."

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّ امْرَأَةً قَالَتْ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ اجْعَلْ لَنَا مِنْكَ يَوْمًا قَالَ «يَوْمُ كَذَا وَكَذَا فِي مَكَانِ كَذَا وَكَذَا فَأَتَاهُنَّ فَعَلَّمَهُنَّ السُّنَّةَ» وَقَالَ «أَمَا إِنَّهُ لَيْسَ مِنِ امْرَأَةٍ تُقَدِّمُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهَا ثَلَاثَةً إِلَّا كَانُوا لَهَا حِجَابًا مِنَ النَّارِ» قَالَتِ امْرَأَةٌ أَوِ اثْنَيْنِ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ فَسَكَتَ قَالَتْ أَوِ اثْنَيْنِ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ قَالَ «أَوِ اثْنَيْنِ»
