مسند امام احمد بن حنبل · Hadith 1131
It was narrated that 'Ali (RA) said: Khadeejah asked the Prophet (PBUH) about two children of her who had died during the Jahiliyyah. The Messenger of Allah said: "They are in Hell." When he saw that she was upset, he said: "If you saw where they are now, you would hate them.She said: O Messenger of Allah, about my child from you? He said: "He is in Paradise." Then the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said: "The believers and their children will be in Paradise and the mushrikeen and their children will be in Hell." Then the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) recited: "And those who believe and whose offspring follow them in Faith, - to them shall We join their offspring..." [at-Toor 52:25].
