A child who dies will be a bird from the birds of Jannah

muslim:2662bZuhayr b. Ḥarb > Jarīr > al-ʿAlāʾ b. al-Musayyab > Fuḍayl b. ʿAmr > ʿĀʾishah b. Ṭalḥah > ʿĀʾishah

A child passed away and I said, "Glad tidings for him ˹as he would be˺ a bird from the birds of Jannah (Paradise)." Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Don't you know that Allah created Jannah and He created the Hellfire, thus He created parties for this and created parties for that."  

مسلم:٢٦٦٢bحَدَّثَنِي زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ عَنِ الْعَلاَءِ بْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ عَنْ فُضَيْلِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو عَنْ عَائِشَةَ بِنْتِ طَلْحَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ أُمِّ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ قَالَتْ

تُوُفِّيَ صَبِيٌّ فَقُلْتُ: طُوبَى لَهُ عُصْفُورٌ مِنْ عَصَافِيرِ الْجَنَّةِ۔ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: «أَوَلاَ تَدْرِينَ أَنَّ اللَّهَ خَلَقَ الْجَنَّةَ وَخَلَقَ النَّارَ فَخَلَقَ لِهَذِهِ أَهْلاً وَلِهَذِهِ أَهْلاً۔»  


A child who dies will be a bird from the birds of Jannah

muslim:2662cAbū Bakr b. Abū Shaybah > Wakīʿ > Ṭalḥah b. Yaḥyá > ʿĀʾishah b. Ṭalḥah > ʿĀʾishah

the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was called for a janāzah (funeral) of a child, and I said: "Glad tidings for this child who is a bird from the birds of Jannah (Paradise) for it has committed no evil nor has he reached it (being old enough to be able to commit sins.)" He said: "Or it may be otherwise: Allah created parties specifically for Jannah while they were in their father's loins, and He created parties specifically for the Hellfire while they were yet in their father's loins."  

مسلم:٢٦٦٢cحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ عَنْ طَلْحَةَ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنْ عَمَّتِهِ عَائِشَةَ بِنْتِ طَلْحَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ أُمِّ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ قَالَتْ

دُعِيَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِلَى جَنَازَةِ صَبِيٍّ مِنَ الأَنْصَارِ فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، طُوبَى لِهَذَا عُصْفُورٌ مِنْ عَصَافِيرِ الْجَنَّةِ، لَمْ يَعْمَلِ السُّوءَ وَلَمْ يُدْرِكْهُ۔ قَالَ: «أَوَغَيْرَ ذَلِكَ يَا عَائِشَةُ۔ إِنَّ اللَّهَ خَلَقَ لِلْجَنَّةِ أَهْلاً خَلَقَهُمْ لَهَا وَهُمْ فِي أَصْلاَبِ آبَائِهِمْ وَخَلَقَ لِلنَّارِ أَهْلاً خَلَقَهُمْ لَهَا وَهُمْ فِي أَصْلاَبِ آبَائِهِمْ۔»  


Abraham was the best of all creation

tirmidhi:3352Muḥammad b. Bashhār > ʿAbd al-Raḥman b. Mahdī > Sufyān > al-Mukhtār b. Fulful > Anas b. Mālik

A man said to the Prophet ﷺ: O best of creation! So he said, “˹Not me,˺ that is Ibrāhīm.”  

Abū ʿĪsá said that this Ḥadīth is Ḥasan-Ṣaḥīḥ.
الترمذي:٣٣٥٢حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنِ الْمُخْتَارِ بْنِ فُلْفُلٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ يَقُولُ

قَالَ رَجُلٌ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ: يَا خَيْرَ الْبَرِيَّةِ! قَالَ «ذَلِكَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ۔»  

قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ

suyuti:4827aʿĀʾishah

"Allah created Jannah and He created the Hellfire, thus He created parties for this and created partiers for that."  

Muslim from ʿĀʾishah
السيوطي:٤٨٢٧aعن عائشة

«إِنَّ الله تَعَالى خَلَقَ الْجَنَّةَ وخَلَقَ النَّار، فَخَلَق لِهَذِه أهْلًا ولِهَذهِ أَهْلًا۔»  

[م] مسلم عن عائشة
