Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, this questioner says: Regarding the saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), is it taken from this hadith that if the children of disbelievers die, they are in Paradise?
Answer:
If they die before reaching puberty, their ruling is the ruling of the people of the interval (ahl al-fatra). The ruling of the people of the interval is that their affair is left to Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He). It is said that a Messenger will be sent to them on the Day of Resurrection, so whoever obeys him will enter Paradise, and whoever disobeys him will enter the Fire. Yes.
