حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَکْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ قَدِمَ نَاسٌ مِنْ الْأَعْرَابِ عَلَی النَّبِيِّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالُوا أَتُقَبِّلُونَ صِبْيَانَکُمْ قَالُوا نَعَمْ فَقَالُوا لَکِنَّا وَاللَّهِ مَا نُقَبِّلُ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَأَمْلِکُ أَنْ کَانَ اللَّهُ قَدْ نَزَعَ مِنْکُمْ الرَّحْمَةَ
ابن ماجہ · Hadith 3665
It was narrated 'Aishah said: Some Bedouin people came to the Prophet and said: 'Do you kiss your children?' He said: 'Yes.' He said: 'But we, by Allah, never kiss (our children).' The Prophet said: 'What can I do if Allah has taken away mercy from you?'"
