Hadith.4726 - It was narrated from Murazim ibn Hakim Al-Azdi that Abu Abdullah (as) said regarding the circumcision of a child: "One should say: O Allah (swt), this is Your (swt) Sunnah and the Sunnah of Your Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family), and it is our following of You (swt) and Your Prophet (sw) by Your (swt) will, Your (swt) desire, and Your (swt) decree for a matter You (swt) have willed, a decision You (swt) have made obligatory, and a command You (swt) have executed. You (swt) have made him taste the heat of iron in his circumcision and cupping for a matter You (swt) know better than I do. O Allah (swt), purify him from sins, increase his lifespan, protect his body from afflictions and his flesh from pain, increase him in wealth, and remove poverty from him. Indeed, You (swt) know while we do not." Abu Abdullah (as) also said: "Whoever does not say this at the time of his child's circumcision should say it before the child reaches puberty. If he says it, the child will be protected from the heat of iron, whether from killing or anything else."

If his parents, one of them, or a family member from the believers had already passed away, the child is entrusted to them to nurture him.

They nourish them from a tree in Paradise that has teats like those of cows, inside a palace made of pearl. On the Day of Judgment, these children will be dressed, perfumed, and presented to their parents. They will be kings in Paradise along with their parents. This is in accordance with the saying of Allah (swt), the Mighty and Majestic: 'And those who believe and whose descendants follow them in faith - We will join them with their descendants'" (Surah At-Tur 52:21).
