حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ وَعُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ وَاللَّفْظُ لِقُتَيْبَةَ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ التَّيْمِيِّ عَنْ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ سُوَيْدٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَا تَعُدُّونَ الرَّقُوبَ فِيکُمْ قَالَ قُلْنَا الَّذِي لَا يُولَدُ لَهُ قَالَ لَيْسَ ذَاکَ بِالرَّقُوبِ وَلَکِنَّهُ الرَّجُلُ الَّذِي لَمْ يُقَدِّمْ مِنْ وَلَدِهِ شَيْئًا قَالَ فَمَا تَعُدُّونَ الصُّرَعَةَ فِيکُمْ قَالَ قُلْنَا الَّذِي لَا يَصْرَعُهُ الرِّجَالُ قَالَ لَيْسَ بِذَلِکَ وَلَکِنَّهُ الَّذِي يَمْلِکُ نَفْسَهُ عِنْدَ الْغَضَبِ
صحیح مسلم · Hadith 6641
Abdullah b. Mas'ud reported Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) as saying: Whom do you count as Raqub amongst you? They (his Companions) said: One who has no children (the children are born unto him but they do not survive). Thereupon he (the Holy Prophet) said: He is not a Raqub but Raqub is one who does not find his child as the forerunner (in Paradise). He then said: Whom do you count as a wrestler amongst you? We said: He who wrestles with persons. He said: No, it is not he but one who controls himself when in a fit of rage.
