Al-Adab Al-Mufrad 84 — Looking after children

A child is a source of both honour and cowardice

Al-Adab Al-MufradHadith Number 84

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ صَالِحٍ قَالَ‏:‏ حَدَّثَنِي اللَّيْثُ قَالَ‏:‏ كَتَبَ إِلَيَّ هِشَامٌ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا قَالَتْ‏:‏ قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ يَوْمًا‏:‏ وَاللَّهِ مَا عَلَى وَجْهِ الأَرْضِ رَجُلٌ أَحَبَّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ عُمَرَ، فَلَمَّا خَرَجَ رَجَعَ فَقَالَ‏:‏ كَيْفَ حَلَفْتُ أَيْ بُنَيَّةُ‏؟‏ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ، فَقَالَ‏:‏ أَعَزُّ عَلَيَّ، وَالْوَلَدُ أَلْوَطُ‏.‏

A'isha Narrated from:

Abu Bakr said, 'By Allah, there is no man on the face of the earth that I love better than 'Umar.' Then he went out and came back and said, 'How did I swear, daughter?' I told him what he had said. Then he said, 'He is dearer to me although one's child is closer (to one's heart).'
