Takhrij Hadith 555: ""Whom do you consider to…"
On the authority of ‘Abdullah ibn Mas'ud, who said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said:
“
"Whom do you consider to be the Raqub (bereft of children) among you?" We replied: "The one to whom no children are born." He said: "That is not the Raqub; rather, he is the person who has not sent forth any of his children ahead of him [i.e., none of his children died during his lifetime to precede him to Paradise]." He said: "Then whom do you consider to be the strongman among you?" We replied: "The one whom other men cannot overpower in wrestling." He said: "That is not the strong man, he is the one who controls himself at the time of anger."”
