حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ عَنْ الْأَعْرَجِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ سُئِلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ أَطْفَالِ الْمُشْرِکِينَ مَنْ يَمُوتُ مِنْهُمْ صَغِيرًا فَقَالَ اللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا کَانُوا عَامِلِينَ
صحیح مسلم · Hadith 6764
Abu Huraira reported that Allahs Messenger (way peace be upon him) was asked about the children of the polytheists who die young. Thereupon Allah's Apostle ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said: It is Allah Who knows what they would be doing.
