Abu Bakr al-Warraaq (d.240) said:
كانت لي بنت مبتلاة،
وكان لها نحو عشر سنين، قال: وكنت أتمنى موتها فماتت،
I had a daughter who was tested with a disability and she
was like this for around ten years. I once said, “I wished she just died” and then
she died.
قال: فأريتها فِي النوم
وكأن القيامة،
He said, "I then saw her in my dream, as if she was standing and the Day of Judgement was taking place.
قامت وكأن صبيانا يأخذون
بأيدي آبائهم فِيدخلونهم الجنة،
She stood up as if she was one of those children who would
take the hand of her parent and lead them to Jannah.
قال: فقلت لبنتي: خذي
بيدي ادخليني الجنة،
So I said to my daughter, 'Take my hand and lead me to
Jannah.'
قال: فقالت لي: لا أنت
كنت تتمنى موتي!
She said to me, 'No, you wished for my death.'”
