Model Behavior of the Prophet (Kitab Al-Sunnah)
Sunan Abī Dāwūd 4714
كُلُّ مَوْلُودٍ يُولَدُ عَلَى الْفِطْرَةِ فَأَبَوَاهُ يُهَوِّدَانِهِ وَيُنَصِّرَانِهِ كَمَا تَنَاتَجُ الإِبِلُ مِنْ بَهِيمَةٍ جَمْعَاءَ هَلْ تُحِسُّ مِنْ جَدْعَاءَ
kullu mawlūdin yūladu ʿalā al-fiṭrah fa-abawāhu yuhawwidānihi wayunaṣṣirānihi kamā tanātaju al-ibilu min bahīmatin jamʿāʾa hal tuḥissu min jadʿāʾa

The full narration
Abu Hurairah reported the Messenger of Allah (May peace be upon him) as saying :Every child is born on Islam, but his parents make him a Jew and a Christian, just as a beast is born whole. Do you find some among them (born) maimed? The people asked : Messenger of Allah! What do you think about the one who died while he was young? He replied : Allah knows best what he was going to do
