One of the favours that Allah will bestow upon His believing
slaves is that He will cause children and wives to join their fathers and
husbands in the degrees or levels of the latter, even if they did not attain
that by their own deeds, so that they may have the joy of reunion.
Allah, may He be exalted, says :
رَبَّنَا وَأَدْخِلْهُمْ
جَنَّاتِ عَدْنٍ الَّتِي وَعَدْتَهُمْ وَمَنْ صَلَحَ مِنْ آبَائِهِمْ
وَأَزْوَاجِهِمْ وَذُرِّيَّاتِهِمْ إِنَّكَ أَنْتَ الْعَزِيزُ الْحَكِيمُ
“Our Lord! And make them enter the Adn (Eden) Paradise
(everlasting Gardens) which you have promised them, and to the righteous among
their fathers, their wives, and their offspring! Verily, You are the
All-Mighty, the All-Wise”
[Surah Ghaafir 40:8].
Imam Al-Tabari (may Allah have mercy on him) said:
That is: Admit to the everlasting Gardens along with these people who repented
“and follow[ed] Your Way” [Ghaafir 40:7] the righteous among their fathers,
spouses and offspring, who did righteous deeds that were pleasing to You in the
previous world.

Ibn Katheer (may Allah have mercy on him) said:
The words “and to the righteous among their fathers, their wives, and their
offspring” i.e., He will reunite them in Paradise with their loved ones, their
parents, wives and children, among the believers who are fit to be admitted to
Paradise, so that they may have the joy of reunion.
He will even raise the one who is of lower status to the higher
status, without that detracting from the status of the one who is higher.
Rather that will be by the grace and kindness of Allah, as He,
may He be exalted, says:
وَالَّذِينَ آمَنُوا
وَاتَّبَعَتْهُمْ ذُرِّيَّتُهُمْ بِإِيمَانٍ أَلْحَقْنَا بِهِمْ ذُرِّيَّتَهُمْ
وَمَا أَلَتْنَاهُمْ مِنْ عَمَلِهِمْ مِنْ شِيْءٍ كُلُّ امْرِئٍ بِمَا كَسَبَ
رَهِينٌ
“And those who believe and whose offspring follow them in Faith,
to them shall We join their offspring, and We shall not decrease the reward of
their deeds in anything. Every person is a pledge for that which he has earned”
[at-Toor 52:21].
