The Promise of Allah's Messenger for Muslims Who Have Lost Three Children

SUMMARY: Allah's Messenger (PBUH) promised that any Muslim who has lost three of their children will be spared from the Fire.

Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah's Messenger said, "Any Muslim who has lost three of his children will not be touched by the Fire except that which will render Allah's oath fulfilled".
حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي مَالِكٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ ‏ "‏ لاَ يَمُوتُ لأَحَدٍ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ ثَلاَثَةٌ مِنَ الْوَلَدِ، تَمَسُّهُ النَّارُ، إِلاَّ تَحِلَّةَ الْقَسَمِ

Trusting in God's promises

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about a promise made by the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ to all Muslims who have lost three or more children. He said that they would not be touched by the fire of Hell except in a way that fulfills Allah’s oath. This means that even if these people are punished in Hell for their sins, it will only be to fulfill what was promised by God and not because they deserve it. It is a reminder to us all that no matter how difficult life may seem at times, we should always remember and trust in God’s mercy and justice.
