ahmad-zuhd:515

[Machine] "So, he did not notice it (the lamp) as he was returning until his fingers were burned as he looked at it, then he got shocked and died." He (narrator) said, "When they woke up in the morning, they went to see what had happened." He (narrator) said, "And behold, she was dead." They (people) said, "O enemy of Allah, O villain, this has befallen her because of you, and then you killed her." He (narrator) said, "So they took him to their king and testified against him, so he ordered his execution." He (narrator) said, "Leave me until I pray two Rak'ahs (units of prayer)." He (narrator) said, "So he prayed and then he supplicated, saying, 'O my Lord, I know that You would not take me to account for what I did not do, but I ask You not to make me a disgrace upon the readers after me.'" He (narrator) said, "So Allah returned her soul to her body, and she said, 'Look at his hand.' Then she returned to being dead." 515 He (narrator) said, "Narrated to us Ghawth bin Jabir, he said, 'I heard Aqil mentioning (this story).' He (narrator) said, 'I heard Wahab bin Munabbih saying, 'Indeed, a man from the travelers was in a house near a village.' So he mentioned the story in a similar way, except he said, 'She (the woman) said, 'When I saw his hands were burned, I was shocked in my place. Then she said, 'Leave, for I will never be your companion again.' And she roamed in the mountains.'"
