It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "The Fire of Hell will not touch any Muslim whose three children have died, except to fulfill an oath." (Which is in this verse: «وَإِنْ مِنْكُمْ إِلَّا وَارِدُهَا كَانَ عَلَى رَبِّكَ حَتْمًا مَقْضِيًّا» ).

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that a woman came to the service of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) with a child and said, "Pray for him (that he may live); I have already buried three children." So the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "You have built a very strong fence to protect yourself from Hell."

Khalid Absi says, I had a son who passed away. I was greatly grieved by his loss, so I said to Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him): What have you heard from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) by which we can comfort our hearts over the sorrow of our deceased? He said: I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "Your little children are the «دعاميص» of Paradise." Explanation of da‘amis: Ibn Kathir says: «دعاميص» is originally the plural of «دعموص» . It is said about an insect that is found in stagnant water. Similarly, «‏‏‏‏دعموص» is also said for anyone who enters any place, meaning these children will roam freely in Paradise, will enter homes, and will not be forbidden from going anywhere.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him): I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) say, "Whoever has three children die and he remains patient, hoping for reward, he will enter Paradise." We said, "O Messenger of Allah! And if two children (die)?" He said, "And two children as well." I said to Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him): I think if you people had said one child, the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) would have said one child as well. Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "By Allah, I think the same."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him), he states that a woman came to the service of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) and said: O Messenger of Allah! We cannot attend your gatherings, so please appoint a separate day for us so that we may come to you on that day. He said: "Your appointed time is at the house of so-and-so." So the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) went to those women and gave them some advice, among which was this: "Whoever among you has three children die and she remains patient, she will enter Paradise." A woman asked: And two children? The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "And two children as well." In this narration is Suhail, who was strict in hadith and used to memorize, and no one had the courage to write in his presence.

It is narrated from Sayyida Umm Sulaym (may Allah be pleased with her) that she said: One day I was with the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), and he said: "O Umm Sulaym! If any Muslim (husband and wife) lose three children, Allah will, by His mercy, admit both of them to Paradise." I asked: (O Messenger of Allah!) And if they lose two children as well? He said: "And two as well."

Sayyiduna Sa’sa’ah bin Mu’awiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that he met Sayyiduna Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) who was carrying a water-skin hanging from his neck. Sa’sa’ah said: O Abu Dharr! How many children do you have? He replied: I will not tell you. I said: You must tell me. He said: I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) say: Any Muslim whose three children die before reaching puberty, Allah will admit him to Paradise out of His mercy for them. And whoever frees a Muslim, Allah the Exalted will save each of his limbs from Hell in exchange for each limb of the one he freed.

Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) that he said: "Whoever has three children die while they were not yet of age (i.e., had not reached puberty), Allah Almighty will admit that person and those children into Paradise by His mercy."
