Translation

Muslim narrated to us; Shu'bah narrated to us; 'Abd al-Rahman ibn al-Asbahani narrated to us, from Dhakwan, from Abu Sa'id (may Allah be pleased with him): The women said to the Prophet (ﷺ): ‘Set aside a day for us.’ He admonished them and said: ‘Any woman whose three children die will have them as a shield from the Fire.’ A woman said: ‘And two?’ He said: ‘And two.’

Sharīk reported from Ibn al-Asbahani: Abu Salih narrated to me, from Abu Sa'id and Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with them both), from the Prophet (ﷺ). Abu Hurayrah said: ‘They had not reached maturity.’
