Praying for Protection from Grave Torment

SUMMARY: This hadith is about the importance of praying for protection from the torment of the grave for a child who has never done wrong.

Yahya related to me from Malik that Yahya ibn Said said that he heard Said ibn al-Musayyab say, "I once prayed behind Abu Hurayra over a child who had never done a wrong action and I heard him say, 'O Allah, give him protection from the torment of the grave'. "
وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ سَعِيدَ بْنَ الْمُسَيَّبِ، يَقُولُ صَلَّيْتُ وَرَاءَ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ عَلَى صَبِيٍّ لَمْ يَعْمَلْ خَطِيئَةً قَطُّ فَسَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ اللَّهُمَّ أَعِذْهُ مِنْ عَذَابِ الْقَبْرِ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith speaks to the importance of supplicating to Allah for protection from grave torment. It was related by Malik that Yahya ibn Said heard Said ibn al-Musayyab say that he once prayed behind Abu Hurayra over an infant or child who had never done a wrong action and he heard him say, “O Allah, give him protection from the torment of the grave.” The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ taught us that we should pray for our children and ask Allah to protect them from all harm and evil. We should also strive to raise our children in such a way that they will be protected in this life and in the hereafter. By teaching them good morals and values, we can ensure their safety both now and later on when they are adults. We must also remember to make du’a regularly on behalf of our children so that they may be blessed with success in this life as well as salvation in the hereafter.
