2. Abū ‘Alī al-Ash‘arī narrated from Muḥammad ibn Sālim, from Aḥmad ibn al-Naḍr, from ‘Amrū ibn Shimr, from Jābir, who reported from Abū Ja‘far (as), who said
"The Messenger of Allah (sw) entered upon Khadījah when her son Qāsim had died, and she was weeping. He asked her, 'What makes you weep?' She replied, 'My milk flowed, and so I wept.' He said, 'O Khadījah, would you not be pleased if on the Day of Resurrection, you come to the gate of Paradise and Qāsim is standing there, taking your hand and leading you into Paradise, placing you in its best place? This is for every believer. Verily, Allah the Almighty and Glorious is too wise and too generous to take away the fruit of a believer's heart and then punish them afterward, ever.'"
2ـ أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الأشْعَرِيُّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سَالِمٍ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ النَّضْرِ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شِمْرٍ عَنْ جَابِرٍ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) قَالَ
دَخَلَ رَسُولُ الله (صلّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) عَلَى خَدِيجَةَ حِينَ مَاتَ الْقَاسِمُ ابْنُهَا وَهِيَ تَبْكِي فَقَالَ لَهَا مَا يُبْكِيكِ فَقَالَتْ دَرَّتْ دُرَيْرَةٌ فَبَكَيْتُ فَقَالَ يَا خَدِيجَةُ أَ مَا تَرْضَيْنَ إِذَا كَانَ يَوْمُ الْقِيَامَةِ أَنْ تَجِي‏ءَ إِلَى بَابِ الْجَنَّةِ وَهُوَ قَائِمٌ فَيَأْخُذَ بِيَدِكِ فَيُدْخِلَكِ الْجَنَّةَ وَيُنْزِلَكِ أَفْضَلَهَا وَذَلِكِ لِكُلِّ مُؤْمِنٍ إِنَّ الله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ أَحْكَمُ وَأَكْرَمُ أَنْ يَسْلُبَ الْمُؤْمِنَ ثَمَرَةَ فُؤَادِهِ ثُمَّ يُعَذِّبَهُ بَعْدَهَا أَبَداً.
