A funeral procession passed and the people praised the deceased. The Prophet ﷺ said, "It has been affirmed to him." Then another funeral procession passed and the people spoke badly of the deceased. The Prophet ﷺ said, "It has been affirmed to him". ʿUmar bin Al-Khattab asked (Messenger of Allah ﷺ ), "What has been affirmed?" He replied, "You praised this, so Paradise has been affirmed to him; and you spoke badly of this, so Hell has been affirmed to him. You people are Allah's witnesses on earth."  

النَّبِيُّ ﷺ وَجَبَتْ ثُمَّ مَرُّوا بِأُخْرَى فَأَثْنَوْا عَلَيْهَا شَرًّا فَقَالَ وَجَبَتْ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ ؓ مَا وَجَبَتْ قَالَ هَذَا أَثْنَيْتُمْ عَلَيْهِ خَيْرًا فَوَجَبَتْ لَهُ الْجَنَّةُ وَهَذَا أَثْنَيْتُمْ عَلَيْهِ شَرًّا فَوَجَبَتْ لَهُ النَّارُ أَنْتُمْ شُهَدَاءُ اللَّهِ فِي الأَرْضِ  

"A funeral passed by and the deceased was praised." The Prophet said: "It is granted." Another funeral passed by and the deceased was criticized. The Prophet said: "It is granted." 'Umar said: "May my father and mother be ransomed for you. One funeral passed by and the deceased was praised, and you said, 'It is granted?"' He said: "Whoever is praised will be granted Paradise, and whoever is criticized will be granted Hell, You are the witnesses of Allah on Earth."  

النَّبِيُّ ﷺ وَجَبَتْ وَمُرَّ بِجَنَازَةٍ أُخْرَى فَأُثْنِيَ عَلَيْهَا شَرًّا فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ وَجَبَتْ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ فِدَاكَ أَبِي وَأُمِّي مُرَّ بِجَنَازَةِ فَأُثْنِيَ عَلَيْهَا خَيْرًا فَقُلْتَ وَجَبَتْ وَمُرَّ بِجَنَازَةٍ فَأُثْنِيَ عَلَيْهَا شَرًّا فَقُلْتَ وَجَبَتْ فَقَالَ مَنْ أَثْنَيْتُمْ عَلَيْهِ خَيْرًا وَجَبَتْ لَهُ الْجَنَّةُ وَمَنْ أَثْنَيْتُمْ عَلَيْهِ شَرًّا وَجَبَتْ لَهُ النَّارُ أَنْتُمْ شُهَدَاءُ اللَّهِ فِي الأَرْضِ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed by a funeral and they praised it favorably, so he said, "It is binding, it is binding." And he passed by another funeral and they praised it negatively, so he said, "It is binding, it is binding." Umar said, "O Messenger of Allah, your first statement 'it is binding' and your second statement 'it is binding'? "The Prophet said, "As for the first, when they praised it favorably, I said that Paradise is binding for him. As for the second, when they praised it negatively, I said that Hellfire is binding for him. And you are witnesses of Allah on His earth."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ مَرَّتْ عَلَيْهِ جَنَازَةٌ فَأَثْنَوْا عَلَيْهَا خَيْرًا فَقَالَ وَجَبَتْ وَجَبَتْ وَمَرَّتْ عَلَيْهِ جَنَازَةٌ فَأَثْنَوْا عَلَيْهَا شَرًّا فَقَالَ وَجَبَتْ وَجَبَتْ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَوْلُكَ الْأَوَّلُ وَجَبَتْ وَقَوْلُكَ الْآخَرُ وَجَبَتْ؟ قَالَ أَمَّا الْأَوَّلُ فَأَثْنَوْا عَلَيْهَا خَيْرًا فَقُلْتُ وَجَبَتْ لَهُ الْجَنَّةُ وَأَمَّا الْآخَرُ فَأَثْنَوْا عَلَيْهَا شَرًّا فَقُلْتُ وَجَبَتْ لَهُ النَّارُ وَأَنْتُمْ شُهَدَاءُ اللهِ فِي أَرْضِهِ  

[Machine] "They passed by the Messenger of Allah ﷺ during a funeral procession and spoke ill of it, so he said ﷺ, 'It is deserved.' They passed by another funeral procession and spoke well of it, so he said ﷺ, 'It is deserved.' Umar said, 'O Messenger of Allah, what is deserved?' He said, 'If they pass by this one and speak ill of it, then the Fire is deserved. And if they pass by this one and speak well of it, then Paradise is deserved. And you are the witnesses of Allah on earth.'"  

مَرُّوا عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِجِنَازَةٍ فَأَثْنَوْا عَلَيْهَا شَرًّا فَقَالَ ﷺ «وَجَبَتْ» وَمَرُّوا بِأُخْرَى فَأَثْنَوْا عَلَيْهَا خَيْرًا فَقَالَ ﷺ «وَجَبَتْ» فَقَالَ عُمَرُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَا وَجَبَتْ؟ قَالَ «مَرُّوا بِتِلْكَ فَأَثْنَوْا عَلَيْهَا شَرًّا فَوَجَبَتِ النَّارُ وَمَرُّوا بِهَذِهِ فَأَثْنَوْا عَلَيْهَا خَيْرًا فَوَجَبَتِ الْجَنَّةُ وَأَنْتُمْ شُهَدَاءُ اللَّهِ فِي الْأَرْضِ»

نَبِيُّ اللهِ ﷺ «وَجَبَتْ» وَمُرَّ بِجِنَازَةٍ فَأُثْنِيَ عَلَيْهَا شَرًّا فَقَالَ نَبِيُّ اللهِ ﷺ «وَجَبَتْ» فَقَالَ عُمَرُ فِدَاكَ أَبِي وَأُمِّي مُرَّ بِجِنَازَةٍ فَأُثْنِيَ عَلَيْهَا خَيْرًا فَقُلْتَ وَجَبَتْ وَمُرَّ بِجِنَازَةٍ فَأُثْنِيَ عَلَيْهَا شَرًّا فَقُلْتَ وَجَبَتْ فَقَالَ «مَنْ أَثْنَيْتُمْ عَلَيْهِ خَيْرًا وَجَبَتْ لَهُ الْجَنَّةُ وَمَنْ أَثْنَيْتُمْ عَلَيْهِ شَرًّا وَجَبَتْ لَهُ النَّارُ أَنْتُمْ شُهَدَاءُ اللهِ فِي الْأَرْضِ»  

“A funeral (procession) passed by the Prophet ﷺ and they praised (the deceased) and spoke well of him. He said: ‘(Paradise is) guaranteed for him.’ Then another funeral passed by and they spoke badly of him, and he (the Prophet ﷺ) said: ‘(Hell is) guaranteed for him.’ It was said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, you said that (Paradise was) guaranteed for this one and that (Hell was) guaranteed for the other one.’ He said: ‘It is the testimony of the people, and the believers are the witnesses of Allah on earth.’” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 1491)   

أَنَّهُ مُرَّ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ بِجِنَازَةٍ فَأُثْنِيَ عَلَيْهَا خَيْرًا فَقَالَ وَجَبَتْ ثُمَّ مُرَّ عَلَيْهِ بِجِنَازَةٍ فَأُثْنِيَ عَلَيْهِ شَرًّا فَقَالَ وَجَبَتْ فَقِيلَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قُلْتَ لِهَذِهِ وَجَبَتْ وَلِهَذِهِ وَجَبَتْ قَالَ شَهَادَةُ الْقَوْمِ وَالْمُؤْمِنُونَ شُهَدَاءُ اللهِ فِي الْأَرْضِ
