Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ عَنِ الْجُرَيْرِيِّ عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ غَلَّاقٍ الْعَيْشِيِّ قَالَ نَزَلْتُ عَلَى أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ وَمَاتَ ابْنٌ لِي فَوَجَدْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَقُلْتُ هَلْ سَمِعْتَ مِنْ خَلِيلِكَ شَيْئًا نُطَيِّبُ بِأَنْفُسِنَا عَنْ مَوْتَانَا قَالَ نَعَمْ سَمِعْتُهُ قَالَ صِغَارُهُمْ دَعَامِيصُ الْجَنَّةِ.
English Translation
Isma'il told us, from al-Jurayri, from Khalid ibn Ghallaq al-'Ayshi, who said: I stayed with Abu Hurayrah, and a son of mine died, and I grieved over him. I said: "Have you heard anything from your beloved friend that we might console ourselves about our dead with?" He said: "Yes, I heard him say: 'Their little ones are the tadpoles of Paradise.'"
