8. It is narrated from the narrator of the previous Hadith from certain persons who narrated to him from Ahmad ibn ‘Abd al-Rahim from certain persons of his people who has said the following
“Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘Daughters are good deeds and sons are bounties. Reward comes only from good deeds and for bounties one will be held for questioning.’”
وَ عَنْهُ عَنْ بَعْضِ مَنْ رَوَاهُ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحِيمِ عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِهِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) قَالَ
الْبَنَاتُ حَسَنَاتٌ وَ الْبَنُونَ نِعْمَةٌ فَإِنَّمَا يُثَابُ عَلَى الْحَسَنَاتِ وَ يُسْأَلُ عَنِ النِّعْمَةِ .
