Abu Abdur Rahman Hubli (may Allah have mercy on him) says that once we were traveling by sea, and our leader was Abdullah bin Qais Khazari. With us was Hazrat Abu Ayyub Ansari (may Allah be pleased with him). Hazrat Abu Ayyub (may Allah be pleased with him) passed by the distributor, who had made the captives stand on one side, among whom was a woman who was crying. Hazrat Abu Ayyub (may Allah be pleased with him) asked, "What is the matter with this woman?" People informed him that she had been separated from her son. Hazrat Abu Ayyub (may Allah be pleased with him) took the hand of her son and placed it in the woman's hand. Seeing this, the distributor went to Abdullah bin Qais Fuzari and informed him of the matter. Abdullah sent a messenger to Hazrat Abu Ayyub (may Allah be pleased with him) to ask why he had done this. He replied, "I heard the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: Whoever separates a mother from her child, Allah will separate him from his loved ones on the Day of Resurrection."
