Hadith of Abu Salamah al-Ansari (RA)
حديث أبي سلمة الأنصاري
Hadith 1092:2
Hashim narrated to us, Uthman Abu Amr al-Batti narrated to us, from Abd al-Hamid ibn Salamah, that his grandfather accepted Islam during the time of the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, while his grandmother did not accept Islam, and he had a son from her. They disputed before the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace. The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said to them: "If you both wish, you may give the boy the choice." He said: He sat the father to one side and the mother to one side, and he gave him the choice. He went toward his mother. The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said: "O Allah, guide him." He said: So he returned to his father.
حدثنا هشيم، حدثنا عثمان أبو عمرو البتي، عن عبد الحميد بن سلمة، أن جده أسلم في عهد رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ولم تسلم جدته، وله منها ابن، فاختصما إلى رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم، فقال لهما رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: " إن شئتما خيرتما الغلام " قال: وأجلس الأب ناحية، والأم ناحية، فخيره فانطلق نحو أمه، فقال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: " اللهم اهده " قال: فرجع إلى أبيه
