[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said, "None of you should cease seeking to have children, for when a man dies without a child, his name ends."  

الطبراني:١٩٧٦٦ – حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ بَكَّارٍ ثنا الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ الْخَلَّالُ ثنا مَرْوَانُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ ثنا ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ عَنْ عَقِيلٍ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنْ سَالِمٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ أَخْبَرَتْنِي حَفْصَةُ

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ «لَا يَدَعْ أَحَدُكُمْ طَلَبَ الْوَلَدِ فَإِنَّ الرَّجُلَ إِذَا مَاتَ وَلَيْسَ لَهُ وَلَدٌ انْقَطَعَ اسْمُهُ»
