KISS YOUR CHILDREN

227

“Some Arab Bedouins came to the Prophet, praise and peace be upon him, and asked ‘Do you kiss your children?’ He answered: ‘Yes.’ Then they said: ‘We never kiss ours.’ He said: ‘Can I help it if Allah has taken compassion from your hearts?’”

Bukhari and Muslim with a chain up to Lady Ayesha, Mother of Believers, wife of the Prophet, may Allah be pleased with her, who related this.
