Hadith of al-Harith ibn Uqaysh (may Allah be pleased with him)

حَدِيثُ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ أُقَيْشٍ، ١٧٨٥٨ - حَدَّثَنَا حَسَنُ بْنُ مُوسَى، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ دَاوُدَ بْنِ أَبِي هِنْدٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ الْحَارِثَ بْنَ أُقَيْشٍ، يُحَدِّثُ أَنَّ أَبَا بَرْزَةَ، قَالَ (١) : سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: " إِنَّ مِنْ أُمَّتِي لَمَنْ يَشْفَعُ لِأَكْثَرَ مِنْ رَبِيعَةَ، وَمُضَرَ، وَإِنَّ مِنْ أُمَّتِي لَمَنْ يَعْظُمُ لِلنَّارِ حَتَّى يَكُونَ رُكْنًا مِنْ أَرْكَانِهَا " (٢)، ،

It is narrated from Harith bin Aqeesh (may Allah be pleased with him) that once we were with Abu Barzah (may Allah be pleased with him) at night. He narrated a hadith from the Prophet (ﷺ), saying: "If four minor children of two Muslims (husband and wife) die, Allah will, by His grace and mercy, admit them into Paradise." The companions (may Allah be pleased with them) asked, "O Messenger of Allah! (ﷺ) What if there are three children?" The Prophet (ﷺ) replied, "The same ruling applies." The companions (may Allah be pleased with them) asked, "What if there are two children?" He replied, "The same ruling applies." And there will be a man in my Ummah for whom the Fire will be spread out so much that he will become one of its corners, and there will be a man in my Ummah by whose intercession as many people as the tribe of Mudar will enter Paradise.

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي عَدِيٍّ، عَنْ دَاوُدَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ، عَنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ أُقَيْشٍ، قَالَ (١) : كُنَّا عِنْدَ أَبِي بَرْزَةَ، لَيْلَةً فَحَدَّثَ لَيْلَتَئِذٍ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ: " مَا مِنْ مُسْلِمَيْنِ يَمُوتُ لَهُمَا أَرْبَعَةُ أَفْرَاطٍ، إِلَّا أَدْخَلَهُمَا اللهُ الْجَنَّةَ بِفَضْلِ رَحْمَتِهِ " قَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ وَثَلَاثَةٌ؟ قَالَ: " وَثَلَاثَةٌ " قَالُوا: وَاثْنَانِ؟ قَالَ: " وَاثْنَانِ "، قَالَ: " وَإِنَّ مِنْ أُمَّتِي لَمَنْ يَعْظُمُ لِلنَّارِ حَتَّى يَكُونَ أَحَدَ زَوَايَاهَا "، قَالَ: " وَإِنَّ مِنْ أُمَّتِي لَمَنْ يَدْخُلُ الْجَنَّةَ بِشَفَاعَتِهِ مِثْلُ مُضَرَ " (٢)، ،
