بسم الله الرحمان الريم
Showing Mercy Towards Children is a Means of Achieving the Mercy of Allah
Excerpt from Umm 'Abdillah Al-Waadi'iyyah's
"My Advice to the Women"
Aboo Hurayrah narrated that the Messenger of Allah, salallahu 'alaihi wa salam, kissed Al-Hasan while Al-Aqra ibn Haabis at-Tameemee was sitting near him. A-Aqra said, "Indeed I have ten children and I have never kissed any of them." The Messenger of Allah looked at him and said, "Whoever does not show mercy will not be shown mercy." [Saheeh al-Bukhaari, 426/10]
