حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، حَدَّثَنَا مَعْمَرٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ طَاوُسٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " قَالَ سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ دَاوُدَ: لَأَطُوفَنَّ اللَّيْلَةَ بِمِائَةِ امْرَأَةٍ، تَلِدُ كُلُّ امْرَأَةٍ مِنْهُنَّ غُلَامًا يُقَاتِلُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ "، قَالَ: " وَنَسِيَ أَنْ يَقُولَ: إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ، فَأَطَافَ بِهِنَّ "، قَالَ: " فَلَمْ تَلِدْ مِنْهُنَّ امْرَأَةٌ (١) إِلَّا وَاحِدَةٌ نِصْفَ إِنْسَانٍ "، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " لَوْ قَالَ: إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ، لَمْ يَحْنَثْ، وَكَانَ دَرَكًا لِحَاجَتِهِ " (٢)، ،

Translation

English translation

Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that once Sulaiman (peace be upon him) said, "Tonight I will go around to one hundred women. Each of them will give birth to a boy who will fight in the way of Allah." On this occasion, he forgot to say "InshaAllah" (if Allah wills). As a result, only one of his wives gave birth to an incomplete child. Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) says that the Holy Prophet (ﷺ) said, "If he had said InshaAllah, he would truly have had one hundred sons, and all of them would have fought in the way of Allah."
