وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكْرِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ حَزْمٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي النَّضْرِ السَّلَمِيِّ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ " لاَ يَمُوتُ لأَحَدٍ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ ثَلاَثَةٌ مِنَ الْوَلَدِ فَيَحْتَسِبُهُمْ إِلاَّ كَانُوا جُنَّةً مِنَ النَّارِ " . فَقَالَتِ امْرَأَةٌ عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَوِ اثْنَانِ قَالَ " أَوِ اثْنَانِ " .


Yahya related to me from Malik from Muhammad ibn Abi Bakr ibn Amribn Hazm from his father from Abu'n-Nadr as-Salami that the Messengerof Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "If three ofa muslim's children die, and he remains content with that, they willbe a protection for him from the Fire." A woman who was with theMessenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "Ortwo, Messengerof Allah?", and he said, "Or two."
