حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو النَّضْرِ هَاشِمُ بْنُ الْقَاسِمِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَرِيزٌ عَنْ شُرَحْبِيلَ ابْنِ شُفْعَةَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عُتْبَةَ بْنَ عَبْدٍ السُّلَمِيَّ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ مَا مِنْ عَبْدٍ يَمُوتُ لَهُ ثَلَاثَةٌ مِنْ الْوَلَدِ لَمْ يَبْلُغُوا الْحِنْثَ إِلَّا تَلَقَّوْهُ مِنْ أَبْوَابِ الْجَنَّةِ الثَّمَانِيَةِ مِنْ أَيِّهَا شَاءَ دَخَلَ.

Abu al-Nadr Hashim ibn al-Qasim narrated to us, he said: Hariz narrated to us, from Shurahbil ibn Shuf'ah, who said: I heard Utbah ibn Abd al-Sulami [say] that he heard the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, say: 'There is no servant from whom three children die before reaching the age of accountability, except that they meet him at the eight gates of Paradise, entering through whichever of them he wishes.'
