Al-‘Ala’ ibn Maslamah al-Baghdadi narrated to us: ‘Abd al-Majid ibn ‘Abd al-‘Aziz narrated to us, from Ma‘mar, from al-Zuhri, from ‘Urwah, from ‘A’ishah, who said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “Whoever is tested with daughters and bears their care patiently, they will be a shield for him from the Fire.”

Abu ‘Isa said: This hadith is hasan.

Notes and open questions — unreviewed
  • The verb ابتلي indicates being tested or tried; the statement is rendered as patience in caring for daughters. The witness omits the transmission chain and Abu ‘Isa’s grading.

  • حَدَّثَنَا الْعَلاَءُ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ الْبَغْدَادِيُّ،

    The witness omits the chain from al-‘Ala’ ibn Maslamah through ‘A’ishah.

    Should the full isnad be retained in the translated record?

  • ‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ ‏.

    The Arabic includes Abu ‘Isa’s hasan grading, absent from the English witness.

    Should the grading remain in the English translation?
