Imam Baqir (a.s) narrated that
a man went to see God's Prophet (a.s) and said: “My parents lived for many years and got old. My father passed away, but my mother is alive. She got so old that I have to chew food for her, just as they do for a baby. I put a pillow for her just as they do for a baby. I put her in cradle and rock her to sleep. She got so old that sometimes she asks me for something but I do not understand what she wants. Or I ask her for something, but she does not understand what I want. When I saw this, I asked God to give me breasts with milk to be able to breast-feed her. Then I developed breasts and I pushed them and milk started to flow. Therefore now I breast- feed her just as she breast-fed me.” At this point God's Prophet (a.s) cried and said: “You have attained goodness. You asked God for something with the intention to get close to Him.” The man asked: “Have I been able to compensate for her efforts for me?' The Prophet (a.s) said: “No. Not even one of her cries of pain during labor.”
عن أبي جعفر (عليه السلام) قال
أتى رسول الله (صلى الله عليه وآله) رجل فقال: إن أبوي عمرا وإن أبي مضى وبقيت أمي، فبلغ بها الكبر حتى صرت أمضع لها كما يمضع للصبي، وأوسدها كما يوسد للصبي، وعلقتها في مكتل أحركها فيه لتنام، ثم بلغ من أمرها إلى أن كانت تريد مني الحاجة فلا أدري أي شئ هو، وأريد منها الحاجة فلا تدري أي شئ هو، فلما رأيت ذلك سألت الله عز وجل أن ينبت علي ثديا يجري فيه اللبن حتى أرضعها، قال: ثم كشف عن صدره فإذا ثدي، ثم عصره فخرج منه اللبن، ثم قال: هو ذا أرضعتها كما كانت ترضعني، قال: فبكى رسول الله (صلى الله عليه وآله) ثم قال: أصبت خيرا، سألت ربك وأنت تنوي قربته، قال: فكافأتها؟ قال: لا، ولا بزفرة من زفراتها.
