قال النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم : "من سقى مسلمًا على ظمأ سقاه الله من الرحيق المختوم." سنن أبي داود ( ١٦٨٢ ) قال العلامة ابن عثيمين رحمه الله تعالى: يعني لو كان ولدك الصغير وقف عند البرادة يقول لك: أريد ماء، وأسقيته وهو ظمآن، فقد سقيت مسلماً على ظمأ، فإن الله يسقيك من الرحيق المختوم. أجر كثير، ولله الحمد. شرح رياض الصّالحين (٢ / ١٧٣) The Prophet ﷺ said: "Whoever gives water to a thirsty Muslim, Allah will give him to drink from Ar Raheeq Al Makhtum*.” Sunan Abi Dawud (1682) The great scholar Ibn Uthaymeen, may Allah have mercy on him, said: This means that if your little child stands by the refrigerator and says to you: “I want some water” and you give him water while he is thirsty, then you have quenched the thirst of a Muslim. And Allah will give you to drink from Ar Raheeq Al Makhtum. A great reward, and all praise is due to Allah. Sharh Riyadh as Saliheen (2/173) *A special type of drink in Jannah.

The Prayer Of A Disobedient Woman Is Not Accepted

قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم : اثنان لا تجاوز صلاتهما رءوسهما : عبد أبق من مواليه حتى يرجع إليهم ،و امرأة عصت زوجها حتى ترجع. The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: “There are two whose prayer does not go beyond their heads (i.e it is not accepted); a slave who runs away from his masters until he returns to them and a woman who disobeys her husband until she returns back (to obeying him).” ● [أخرجه الطبرانى في المعجم الصغير ص ٩٧ وحسنه ، صححه الألباني في الصحيحه]

Have a Lot of Children, Your Provisions Will Increase

The Noble Shaykh Muḥammad Ibn Sāliḥ al-‘Uthaymīn (may Allāh have mercy upon him) stated: The one who has evil thoughts about his Lord has gone clearly astray when he has said: Don’t have a lot of children, it will cause your provisions to be restricted! By the Lord of the throne they have lied. When the people have a lot of children Allāh increases their provisions. That’s because there’s no creature upon the earth except that its provisions is upon Allāh. Therefore the provisions of your children are upon Allāh (‘azza wa jall). He is the one who opes up the doors of provision in order that you spend upon them. However many from amongst the people they have bad thoughts about Allāh and they depend upon the physically visual matters and they don’t look at the long term affair nor do they look at the divine decree of Allāh (‘azza wa jall), that He is the One who provides even if the children are in abundance. Have a lot of children and the provisions will increase for you. This is what is correct.

Ruling on the Deceased Children of the Disbelievers Q: A questioner from Riyadh asks: What is the ruling on a child who, being born to two disbelieving parents, dies before reaching the ageof Taklif (meeting the conditions to be held legally accountable for actions)? Is the child a Muslim in the Sight of Allah, knowing that the Messenger of Allah (صلى الله عليه وسلم) said: “Every child is born on Al-Fitrah (true faith of Islam to worship none but Allah)”? If he/she is a Muslim, are Muslims entitled to wash his/her dead body and perform the Funeral Prayer in behalf of him/her? Please enlighten us. May Allah reward you! A: If a child of two disbelieving parents dies before reaching the age of Taklif, he/she assumes the rulings applied to them in the worldly life, and in turn the corpse is not washed. Moreover, he/she is neither entitled to receive a Funeral Prayer nor to be buried in the Muslims' graveyards. Yet, in the Hereafter, his/her affair lies with Allah (سبحانه). It was authentically reported that the Prophet (صلى الله عليه وسلم) when asked about the children of the Mushriks (those who associate others with Allah in His Divinity or worship) said: "Allah knows what sort of deeds they would have done." Some religious scholars viewed that the Knowledge of Allah (سبحانه) about them is manifested on the Day of Resurrection, and that they will be tested in the way of Ahl-ul-Fatrah (those to whom Da’wah has not reached in an uncorrupted manner). Thus, if they obediently submit to what they are asked, they will enter Paradise; but if they disobey, they will enter the Fire. Hadith from the Prophet (صلى الله عليه وسلم) about testing Ahl-ul-Fatrah on the Day of Resurrection were proven authentic. This also applies to those who receive the same religious ruling, such as the children of the disbelievers. Allah (سبحانه وتعالى) says: “And We never punish until We have sent a Messenger (to give warning).” [Surah Al-Isra', 17: 15] This is the most correct opinion regarding Ahl-ul-Fatrah and those like them to whom Da’wah (calling to Islam) has not reached in an uncorrupted manner. This opinion was also maintained by Shaykh-ul-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah, his student Ibn Al-Qayyim, and a group of the Salaf (righteous predecessors) and the Khalaf (the following generations), may Allah be merciful with them all. Scholar Ibn Al-Qayyim (رحمه الله تعالى) extensively elaborated on the religious ruling regarding the children of the disbelievers and Ahl-ul-Fatrah at the close of his book, Tariq-ul-Hijratayn [The Path of the Two Hijrahs], under the title, Tabaqat Al-Mukallafin [Levels of the Mukallafs].
