Muhammad b. al-Hasan b. Ahmad b. al-Walid narrated to us. He said: Muhammad b. al-Hasan al-Saffar narrated to us. He said: Muhammad b. al-Husayn b. Abi'l Khattab narrated to us from al-Hakam b. Miskin. He said: Khalid al-Ka`bi narrated to me from Abi `Abdillah .

The Messenger of Allah (s) said: Surely, a woman only moved something in the house of her husband from one place to another, wanting to rectify it, and Allah looked to her - and whoever Allah looks to, He will not punish. So, Umm Salama said: All good has gone to men, so what is for poor women? So, he (s) said: Rather, when a woman becomes pregnant, she is of the status of one who is fasting, standing [in prayer], and striving with his soul and his wealth in the way of Allah. When she gives birth, she receives a reward that she cannot comprehend due to its greatness. When she breastfeeds, her reward with each suckle is like freeing one from the descendants of Isma`il. When she stops breastfeeding, an angel hits her on her side and says: Continue working, for Allah has forgiven you.
