Hadith 32
وَعَنْ أَبِي رِمْثَةَ قَالَ: { أَتَيْتُ اَلنَّبِيَّ ‏- صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏-وَمَعِي اِبْنِي 1‏ .‏ فَقَالَ: "مَنْ هَذَا?" قُلْتُ: اِبْنِي.‏ أَشْهَدُ بِهِ.‏ قَالَ: "أَمَّا إِنَّهُ لَا يَجْنِي عَلَيْكَ, وَلَا تَجْنِي عَلَيْهِ } رَوَاهُ النَّسَائِيُّ, وَأَبُو دَاوُدَ, وَصَحَّحَهُ اِبْنُ خُزَيْمَةَ, وَابْنُ اَلْجَارُودِ 2‏ .‏
Abu Rimthah narrated, ‘I came to the Prophet (ﷺ) with my son and he asked me, “Who is this?” I answered, ‘This is my son, and I swear on it.’ The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:

“He will not carry your burdens (sins) and you will not carry his burdens.” Related by An-Nasa’i and Abu Dawud. Ibn Khuzaimah and Ibn al-Garud graded it as Sahih.
