Sunan Abi Dawud 4706 (Book 42, Hadith 111) #24997
Born Infidel

SUMMARY: The hadith explains the verse "As for the youth his parents were people of Faith," and states that a person is created infidel on the day they are born.

Ubayy b. Ka’b said : I heard the Messenger of Allah (May peace be upon him) explaining the verse "As for the youth his parents were people of Faith," he was created infidel the day when he was created.
حَدَّثَنَا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا الْفِرْيَابِيُّ، عَنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أُبَىُّ بْنُ كَعْبٍ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ يَقُولُ فِي قَوْلِهِ ‏{‏ وَأَمَّا الْغُلاَمُ فَكَانَ أَبَوَاهُ مُؤْمِنَيْنِ ‏}‏ ‏"‏ وَكَانَ طُبِعَ يَوْمَ طُبِعَ كَافِرًا

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith explains a verse from the Quran which states that when a child is born, they are considered to be an infidel. This means that they have not yet accepted any faith or religion and it is up to them to decide what path in life they want to take. The Prophet Muhammad was explaining this verse in order to emphasize how important it is for parents to teach their children about faith and religion so that they can make an informed decision about what path in life they want to take. It also serves as a reminder for parents not to force their beliefs onto their children but rather guide them towards making their own decisions based on knowledge and understanding of different faiths and religions.
