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."

(٩٥٤) 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.»
