صحیح مسلم · Hadith 6025
Anas b. Malik reported that Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said: A child was born into me this night and I named him after the name of my father Ibrihim. He then sent him to Umm Saif, the wife of a blacksmith who was called Abu Saif. He (the Holy Prophet) went to him and I followed him until we reached Abu Saif and he was blowing fire with the help of blacksmith's bellows and the house was filled with smoke. I hastened my step and went ahead of Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) and said: Abu Saif, stop it, as there comes Allah's Messenger (may peace he upon him). He stopped and Allah's Apostle ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) called for the child. He embraced him and said what Allah had desired. Anas said: I saw that the boy breathed his last in the presence of Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ). The eyes of Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) shed tears and he said: Ibrahim, our eyes shed tears and our hearts are filled with grief, but we do not say anything except that by which Allah is pleased. O Ibrahim, we are grieved for you.
