Will we be selfish on the day of judgement?

TLK, can you please point out some reference where it says the mother will run away after throwing away her child?

As far as I know, a hadith says mothers will drop their babies in their womb. It could be an implication of the end of time but i guess you are mixing it with another event. .

22:1 O mankind, fear your Lord. Indeed, the convulsion of the [final] Hour is a terrible thing.
22:2 On the Day you see it every nursing mother will be distracted from that [child] she was nursing, and every pregnant woman will abort her pregnancy, and you will see the people [appearing] intoxicated while they are not intoxicated; but the punishment of Allah is severe.

@**Silaaj. Your believe may not be true. If it is, then the Shifaa’at of shuhudaa, huffaz, and innocent kids for their parents would not even occur. But we know that those groups will do the request from Allah for their parents.

**I always believed that this stuff about shuhadaa and huffaz was more symbolic than anything else. Because from a perspective of ‘insaaf’, it doesnt make sense to a layman like me that a person could commit crimes all his life, yet if his son dies a shaheed, he would benefit from it just because his son laid his life for Allah SWT. I always felt that it always has to be something that the person himself/herself did that would save him/her from the hellfire (however small), despite a life of evil deeds. Like the woman who would go to jannah for giving water to a dying dog, despite having been a mushrik all her life.
