Abu Hurayrah radiallahu 'anhu related that the Messenger of Allaah sallallahu `alayhi wa sallam said: "Allaah created mercy in one hundred parts and sent down to earth only one part. Because of this one part there is mutual love amongst creation, so much so that an animal will lift up its hoof from its young one, fearing that it might harm it. Allah has reserved the remaining ninety-nine parts of this mercy to favour His believing servants on the Day of Judgment. "

'Umar ibn al-Khattaab radiallaahu 'anhu related: Once there was a women who was frantically searching for someone amongst the prisoners of war who had been brought to the Prophet sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam. When she found a child amongst the prisoners, she took it and pressed it against her chest for it to suckle. At that point the Prophet sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam turned to his Companions and said: "Do you think that this woman will ever allow her child to be thrown into a fire?" They said: By Allaah! As far as it lies within her power, she will never allow the child to be thrown into a fire. The Prophet sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam then said: "Indeed Allaah is kinder to His servants than this woman is to her child."
