Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "Allah created the creation, and when He finished with it, the womb (rahm) stood up and held onto the back of the Most Merciful (Ar-Rahman). He (the Most Merciful) said: 'What is this?' It (the womb) said: 'This is the place of one who seeks refuge with You from severing ties.' He said: 'Are you not pleased that I will maintain ties with the one who maintains ties with you, and I will sever ties with the one who severs ties with you?' The womb said: 'Yes, my Lord, I am pleased.' He said: 'Then that is for you.' " Agreed upon.
