Sahih

The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.

حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الْجَوْهَرِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ، قَالَ مَا سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم جَمَعَ أَبَوَيْهِ لأَحَدٍ غَيْرَ سَعْدِ بْنِ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ ‏.‏
"I did not hear the Prophet (ﷺ) mentioning both of his parents (that is including both in the saying "May my father and mother be ransomed for you") for anyone other than Sa'd bin Abi Waqqas."
Narrated by Narrated 'Ali:

Context

In this hadith, narrated by 'Ali, it is noted that the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) only mentioned both of his parents in a special context, specifically when referring to Sa'd bin Abi Waqqas. This highlights the unique status of Sa'd among the companions and emphasizes the importance of honoring one's parents in Islam. The takeaway is the significance of parental respect and recognition in the Islamic tradition.

Modern Application

In today's society, honoring and respecting parents remains a core value. Many people express their gratitude and love for their parents through acts of kindness, support, and acknowledgment of their sacrifices. This principle encourages individuals to maintain strong family ties and show appreciation for parental roles.

Topics

This hadith is tagged with Prophetic Conduct because it illustrates the Prophet's (ﷺ) unique recognition of Sa'd bin Abi Waqqas in relation to his parents.
