It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Rimthah (may Allah be pleased with him) that I went with my father to the service of the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked him, "Is this your son?" He replied, "Yes." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked, "Do you love him?" He said, "Yes!" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "He is not responsible for any of your crimes, and you are not responsible for any of his crimes."
