1. The Holy Prophet (s.a.w.s.) said, “One who goes to the market and buys gifts for his near and dear ones, its reward is equal to that of paying sadaqah to a community of needy people. Present gifts to your daughters before sons. A person who makes his daughter happy will get the reward of freeing a slave from the progeny of Ismail (a.s.). A person who makes his sons happy will get the reward of weeping in the fear of Allah. A person who weeps in the fear of Allah, will be rewarded a Paradise full of bounties.”
حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ الصَّفَّارُ عَنْ سَلَمَهَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ عَنْ أَیُّوبَ بْنِ سُلَیْمٍ الْعَطَّارِ عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ بَشِیرٍ الْکَاهِلِیِّ عَنْ سلیم [سَالِمٍ] الْأَفْطَسِ عَنْ سَعِیدِ بْنِ جُبَیْرٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص مَنْ دَخَلَ السُّوقَ فَاشْتَرَی تُحْفَهً فَحَمَلَهَا إِلَی عِیَالِهِ کَانَ کَحَامِلِ صَدَقَهٍ إِلَی قَوْمٍ مَحَاوِیجَ وَ لْیَبْدَأْ بِالْإِنَاثِ قَبْلَ الذُّکُورِ فَإِنَّهُ مَنْ فَرَّحَ أُنْثَی فَکَأَنَّمَا عتق [أَعْتَقَ] رَقَبَهً مِنْ وُلْدِ إِسْمَاعِیلَ وَ مَنْ أَقَرَّ بِعَیْنِ ابْنٍ فَکَأَنَّمَا بَکَی مِنْ خَشْیَهِ اللَّهِ وَ مَنْ بَکَی مِنْ خَشْیَهِ اللَّهِ أَدْخَلَهُ جَنَّاتِ النَّعِیمِ.
