and the ḥadīth has supporting evidence with a sound isnād from Abū Hurayrah, elevated, and it is included in "al-Irwāʾ" (826). The beginning of it has two other supporting evidences from Abū Umāmah and Abū Dharr. They are included therein (889). Another supporting evidence is from the ḥadīth of ʿAbdullāh ibn Ḥubshī, elevated. It was extracted by Aḥmad (3/411-412) and its isnād is sound according to the criteria of Muslim.

- "There is no Muslim servant who spends a pair from every wealth he has in the way of Allāh except that the gatekeepers of Paradise will welcome him, each calling him to what they have. I said: How is that? He said: If it is camels, then two camels, and if it is cows, then two cows." It was extracted by al-Nasāʾī (2/66), al-Dārimī (1/204), Ibn Ḥibbān (1649-1652), al-Ḥākim (2/86), and Aḥmad (5/151, 153, 159, 164) through various chains from al-Ḥasan from Ṣaʿṣaʿah ibn Muʿāwiyah who said: "I met Abū Dharr and said: Tell me, he said: Yes, the Messenger of Allāh (ṣallá Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam) said..." and he mentioned it. The context is from al-Nasāʾī, and Aḥmad and Ibn Ḥibbān added: "There are no two Muslims who have three children who did not reach the age of sin except that Allāh will admit them to Paradise by His mercy towards them." Al-Nasāʾī also extracted it in "al-Janāʾiz" (1/256), and al-Ḥākim said: "The isnād is sound." Al-Dhahabī agreed with him. I said: It is as they said, except that it contains the ʿanʿanah of al-Ḥasan al-Baṣrī, but he explicitly stated transmission in Aḥmad's narration from two routes from him, so it is according to the criteria of the two Shaykhs, and Ṣaʿṣaʿah is among the Companions (raḍiya Allāhu ʿanhu).
