It is narrated from Muawiyah bin Jahimah that Jahimah (may Allah be pleased with him) came to the service of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) and said, "O Messenger of Allah! I want to consult you about participating in jihad." The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) asked, "Do you have a mother?" He replied, "Yes!" The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, "Go! Stay with her, for Paradise is at her feet." Its chain is authentic; narrated by Ahmad, al-Nasa'i, and al-Bayhaqi in Shu'ab al-Iman.
