حَدَّثَنَا قَبِيصَةُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ سُهَيْلِ بْنِ أَبِي صَالِحٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ: لاَ يَجْزِي وَلَدٌ وَالِدَهُ، إِلاَّ أَنْ يَجِدَهُ مَمْلُوكًا فَيَشْتَرِيَهُ فَيُعْتِقَهُ.
Abu Hurayra reported that the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant
him peace, said, "A child cannot repay his father unless he finds him as
a slave and the buys him and sets him free."
Sa'id ibn Abi Burda said, "I heard my father say that Ibn 'Umar saw a
Yamani man going around the House while carrying his mother on his back,
saying, 'I am your humble camel. If her mount is frightened, I am not
frightened.' Then he asked, 'Ibn 'Umar? Do you think that I have repaid her?'
He replied, 'No, not even for a single groan.'
Narrated Taysala ibn Mayyas said, "I was with the Najadites when I
committed wrong actions which I supposed were major wrong actions. I mentioned
that to Ibn 'Umar. He inquired, 'What are they?" I replied, 'Such-and-such.'
He stated, 'These are not major wrong actions. There are nine major wrong
actions. Th:
associating others with Allah, killing someone, desertion
from the army when it is advancing, slandering a chaste woman, usury, consuming
an orphan's property, heresy in the mosque, scoffing, and causing one's parents
to weep through disobedience.' Ibn 'Umar then said to me, 'Do you wish to
separate yourself from the Fire? Would you like to enter Paradise?' 'By Allah,
yes!' I replied. He asked, 'Are your parents still alive?' I replied, 'My
mother is.' He said, 'By Allah, if you speak gently to her and feed her,
then you will enter the Garden as long as you avoid the major wrong actions.'"
