5. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from al-Nawfali from al-Sakuni who has said the following
“Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said that the Messenger of Allah (saww) has said, ‘The best of children are daughters, who are kind, serving, comforting, blessed and nursing (their parents).”’
عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ النَّوْفَلِيِّ عَنِ السَّكُونِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (عليه السلام) قَالَ
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ (صلى الله عليه وآله) نِعْمَ الْوَلَدُ الْبَنَاتُ مُلْطِفَاتٌ مُجَهِّزَاتٌ مُونِسَاتٌ مُبَارَكَاتٌ مُفَلِّيَاتٌ .
