kaum itu, maka dia tidak akan mendapat apa pun dari
Allah dan Allah tidak akan pernah memasukkannya ke
dalam surga. Dan siapa saja laki-laki yang mengingkari
anaknya sendiri padahal dia melihat (kemiripan)nya, maka
Allah akan tertutup darinya dan Allah akan membeberkan
perbuatannya itu di hadapan orang-orang yang terdahulu
dan kemudian (pada Hari Kiamat nanti).” (HR. Ad Darimi)
