[Machine] "When he used to place the deceased in his grave, he would say, 'In the name of Allah and according to the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah.' A hadith of Al-Baihaqi, which is well-known among the Companions, serves as evidence for the hadith of Hammam narrated by Qatadah as well."  

أَنَّهُ كَانَ إِذَا وَضَعَ الْمَيِّتَ فِي قَبْرِهِ قَالَ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ وَعَلَى سُنَّةِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ حَدِيثُ الْبَيَاضِيِّ وَهُوَ مَشْهُورٌ فِي الصَّحَابَةِ شَاهِدٌ لِحَدِيثِ هَمَّامٍ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ مُسْنَدًا  

[Machine] From the Messenger of Allah ﷺ: When the deceased is placed in their grave, those who are placing them should say, "In the name of Allah and by the permission of Allah and upon the religion of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ."  

عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَنَّهُ قَالَ إِذَا وُضِعَ الْمَيِّتُ فِي قَبْرِهِ فَلْيَقُلِ الَّذِينَ يَضَعُونَهُ حِينَ يُوضَعُ فِي اللَّحْدِ بِاسْمِ اللَّهِ وَبِاللَّهِ وَعَلَى مِلَّةِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ passed by a funeral at a grave and said, "Whose grave is this?" They said, "It is the grave of Fulan al-Habashi, O Messenger of Allah." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ then said, "There is no deity but Allah, there is no deity but Allah. He will be transported from his land and heavens to the earth from which he was created."  

مَرَّ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ بِجِنَازَةٍ عِنْدَ قَبْرٍ فَقَالَ «قَبْرُ مَنْ هَذَا؟» فَقَالُوا فُلَانٌ الْحَبَشِيُّ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ سِيقَ مِنْ أَرْضِهِ وَسَمَائِهِ إِلَى تُرْبَتِهِ الَّتِي مِنْهَا خُلِقَ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "When Allah intends to take the life of a servant on land, He grants him a need in it or with it."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «إِذَا أَرَادَ اللَّهُ قَبْضَ عَبْدٍ بِأَرْضٍ جَعَلَ لَهُ فِيهَا أَوْ بِهَا حَاجَةً»  

(Another chain) with similar meaning. (Using translation from Tirmidhī 3093)   

عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "No man is placed on earth without having a need fulfilled for him within it."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «مَا جُعِلَ أَجَلُ رَجُلٍ فِي أَرْضٍ إِلَّا جُعِلَتْ لَهُ فِيهَا حَاجَةٌ» وَمِنْهَا  

"When Allah decrees that a slave (of His) is to die in a land, He makes him have some need from it." Another chain reports a similar narration. (Using translation from Tirmidhī 2146)   

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «إِذَا أَرَادَ اللَّهُ قَبْضَ عَبْدٍ بِأَرْضٍ جَعَلَ لَهُ إِلَيْهَا حَاجَةً»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Verily, he is being punished." So he died, and a man saw fire in his grave. He approached him, and behold, it was the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, "Come to your companion." And behold, it was the man who used to raise his voice in remembrance.  

رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «فَإِنَّهُ أَوَّاهٌ» قَالَ فَمَاتَ فَرَأَى رَجُلٌ نَارًا فِي قَبْرِهِ فَأَتَاهُ فَإِذَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِيهِ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ «هَلُمُّوا إِلَى صَاحِبَكُمْ» فَإِذَا هُوَ الرَّجُلُ الَّذِي كَانَ يَرْفَعُ صَوْتَهُ بِالذِّكْرِ  

[Machine] "I saw a fire in the cemeteries, so I approached them and found the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in the grave, saying, 'Bring me your companion.'"  

رَأَيْتُ نَارًا فِي الْمَقَابِرِ فَأَتَيْتُهُمْ فَإِذَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِي الْقَبْرِ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ «نَاوِلُونِي صَاحِبَكُمْ»  

[Machine] I heard a man who was in Mecca and was Roman. In the narration of Shu'bah, his name is Waggas. He used to go around the Kaaba and say in his supplication, "Oh, Oh." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Indeed, he is a lunatic." Abu Dharr said, "So I went out one night, and I found the Prophet ﷺ burying that man in the cemetery along with a lantern."  

سَمِعْتُ رَجُلًا كَانَ بِمَكَّةَ وَكَانَ رُومِيًّا وَفِي حَدِيثِ شُعْبَةَ اسْمُهُ وَقَّاصٌ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ قَالَ كَانَ رَجُلٌ يَطُوفُ بِالْبَيْتِ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ فِي دُعَائِهِ أَوَّهْ أَوَّهْ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «إِنَّهُ لَأَوَّاهٌ» قَالَ أَبُو ذَرٍّ فَخَرَجْتُ ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ فَإِذَا النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فِي الْمَقَابِرِ يَدْفِنُ ذَلِكَ الرَّجُلَ وَمَعَهُ الْمِصْبَاحُ  

The Prophet ﷺ made a speech one day and mentioned a man from among his Companions who died and was shrouded in a shroud of bad quality, and was buried at night. The Prophet ﷺ rebuked that man be buried at night until prayer was offered over him, except that a man was forced to do that. The Prophet ﷺ said: When one of you shrouds his brother, he should use a shroud of good quality. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 3148)  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ خَطَبَ يَوْمًا فَذَكَرَ رَجُلًا مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ قُبِضَ وَكُفِّنَ فِي كَفَنٍ غَيْرِ طَائِلٍ وَقُبِرَ لَيْلًا فَزَجَرَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَنْ يُقْبَرَ الرَّجُلُ بِاللَّيْلِ حَتَّى يُصَلَّى عَلَيْهِ إِلَّا أَنْ يُضْطَرَّ إِنْسَانٌ إِلَى ذَلِكَ وَقَالَ «إِذَا كَفَّنَ أَحَدُكُمْ أَخَاهُ فَلْيُحْسِنْ كَفَنَهُ»  

Messenger of Allah ﷺ one day in the course of his sermon made mention of a person among his Companions who had died and had been wrapped in a shroud not long (enough to cover his whole body) and was buried during the night. The Apostle of Allah ﷺ reprimanded (the audience) that a person was buried during the night (in a state that) funeral prayer could not be offered (over him by the Messenger of Allah). (And this is permissible only) when it becomes a dire necessity for a man. The Apostle of Allah ﷺ also said: When any one of you shrouds his brother, he should shroud him well. (Using translation from Muslim 943)  

فَأَخْبَرَنِي أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ خَطَبَ يَوْمًا فَذَكَرَ رَجُلًا مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ قُبِضَ فَكُفِّنَ فِي كَفَنٍ غَيْرِ طَائِلٍ وَقُبِرَ لَيْلًا فَزَجَرَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَنْ يُقْبَرَ الرَّجُلُ لَيْلًا وَلَا يُصَلَّى عَلَيْهِ إِلَّا أَنْ يُضْطَرَّ إِنْسَانٌ إِلَى ذَلِكَ وَقَالَ «إِذَا وَلِيَ أَحَدُكُمْ أَخَاهُ فَلْيُحْسِنْ كَفَنَهُ»  

ʿAli ؓ said to me: I shall send you on the same mission as the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent me: do not leave any image without erasing it or any built-up grave without levelling it. (Using translation from Aḥmad 741)  

لِأَبِي هَيَّاجٍ «أَبْعَثُكَ عَلَى مَا بَعَثَنِي عَلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَنْ لَا تَدَعْ تِمْثَالًا إِلَّا طَمَسْتَهُ وَلَا قَبْرًا مُشْرِفًا إِلَّا سَوَّيْتَهُ»  

[Machine] I Ali, am unwilling to send you on what the Prophet ﷺ did not command me regarding, so he mentioned the narration in its form.  

لِي عَلِيٌّ أَلَا أَبْعَثُكَ عَلَى مَا بَعَثَنِي عَلَيْهِ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ بِنَحْوِهِ  

I said to Aisha! Mother, show me the grave of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and his two Companions (Allah be pleased with them). She showed me three graves which were neither high nor low, but were spread with soft red pebbles in an open space. Abu 'Ali said: It is said that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ is forward, Abu Bakr is near his head and 'Umar is near is feet. His head is at the feet of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 3220)   

دَخَلْتُ عَلَى عَائِشَةَ فَقُلْتُ يَا أُمَّاهُ اكْشِفِي لِي عَنْ قَبْرِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَصَاحِبَيْهِ فَكَشَفَتْ لِي عَنْ ثَلَاثَةٍ قُبُورٍ لَا مُشْرِفَةٍ وَلَا لَاطِئَةٍ مَبْطُوحَةٍ بِبَطْحَاءِ الْعَرْصَةِ الْحَمْرَاءِ «فَرَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ مُقَدَّمًا وَأَبَا بَكْرٍ رَأْسُهُ بَيْنَ كَتِفَيِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَعُمَرُ رَأْسُهُ عِنْدَ رِجْلَيِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ»  

"The Messenger of Allah forbade building over graves, making them larger or plastering over them." (One of two narrators) Sulaiman bin Musa added: "Or writing on them." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 2027)   

«نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَنْ يُبْنَى عَلَى الْقَبْرِ أَوْ يُجَصَّصَ أَوْ يَقْعُدَ عَلَيْهِ وَنَهَى أَنْ يُكْتَبَ عَلَيْهِ»  

[Machine] "The Prophet ﷺ prohibited engraving on graves, writing on them, building on them, and sitting on them. These narrations are authentic. However, their implementation differs, as the leaders of the Muslims from the East to the West have writings on their graves, which is a practice inherited from the previous generations."  

«نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَنْ تَجْصِيصِ الْقُبُورِ وَالْكِتَابَةِ فِيهَا وَالْبِنَاءِ عَلَيْهَا وَالْجُلُوسِ عَلَيْهَا» هَذِهِ الْأَسَانِيدُ صَحِيحَةٌ «وَلَيْسَ الْعَمَلُ عَلَيْهَا فَإِنَّ أَئِمَّةَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ مِنَ الشَّرْقِ إِلَى الْغَرْبِ مَكْتُوبٌ عَلَى قُبُورِهِمْ وَهُوَ عَمَلٌ أَخَذَ بِهِ الْخَلَفُ عَنِ السَّلَفِ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "My Ummah, or this Ummah, will continue to adhere to their religion as long as they do not neglect to bury the deceased in their own families."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «لَا تَزَالُ أُمَّتِي أَوْ هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةُ فِي مَسَكَةٍ مِنْ دِينِهَا مَا لَمْ يَكِلُوا الْجَنَائِزَ إِلَى أَهْلِهَا»  

[Machine] I heard Uthman ibn Affan say that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed by a funeral at a grave, and the person accompanying the deceased was being buried. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Seek forgiveness for your brother and ask Allah to grant him steadfastness, for he is now being questioned."  

سَمِعْتُ عُثْمَانَ بْنَ عَفَّانَ يَقُولُ مَرَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِجِنَازَةٍ عِنْدَ قَبْرٍ وَصَاحِبُهُ يُدْفَنُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «اسْتَغْفِرُوا لِأَخِيكُمْ وَسَلُوا اللَّهَ لَهُ التَّثْبِيتَ فَإِنَّهُ الْآنَ يُسْأَلُ»  

ʿUthman ؓ used to stand by a grave and weep until his beard became wet. It was said to him: You remember Paradise and Hell and you do not weep, but you weep for this? He said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: ʿThe grave is the first stage of the hereafter. If one is saved from it (i.e., its torments), then what comes after it is easier than it. But if one is not saved from it {i.e. its torments), then what comes after it is worse.ʿ And the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: By Allah, I have never seen any frightening scene but the grave is more frightening than it.ʿ (Using translation from Aḥmad 454)   

فَيُقَالُ لَهُ قَدْ تَذْكُرُ الْجَنَّةَ وَالنَّارَ فَلَا تَبْكِي وَتَبْكِي مِنْ هَذَا فَيَقُولُ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «إِنَّ الْقَبْرَ أَوَّلُ مَنَازِلِ الْآخِرَةِ فَإِنْ نَجَا مِنْهُ فَمَا بَعْدَهُ أَيْسَرُ مِنْهُ وَإِنْ لَمْ يَنْجُ مِنْهُ فَمَا بَعْدَهُ أَشَدُّ مِنْهُ» وَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «مَا رَأَيْتُ مَنْظَرًا إِلَّا وَالْقَبْرُ أَفْظَعُ مِنْهُ»  

[Machine] "I traveled with the Prophet ﷺ more than once, and every time I saw him pass by the grave of a person, he would command for their burial. He did not discriminate whether the deceased was a Muslim or a non-Muslim."  

«سَافَرْتُ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ غَيْرَ مَرَّةٍ فَمَا رَأَيْتُهُ مَرَّ بِجِيفَةِ إِنْسَانٍ إِلَّا أَمَرَ بِدَفْنِهِ لَا يَسْأَلُ أَمُسْلِمٌ هُوَ أَمْ كَافِرٌ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Every person has three close friends. As for the first friend, when you spend, he says, 'It is yours and you deserve it,' and when you withhold, he says, 'It is not yours and you should not keep it,' and that is his wealth. As for the second friend, he says, 'I am with you, if you go to the king's gate, I will leave you and return, that is his family and honor. And as for the third friend, he says, 'I am with you wherever you go, that is his own deed. If I have made these three people less important to me…"  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لِكُلِّ إِنْسَانٍ ثَلَاثَةُ أَخِلَّاءَ أمَّا خَلِيلٌ فَيَقُولُ مَا أَنْفَقْتَ فَلَكَ وَمَا أَمْسَكْتَ فَلَيْسَ لَكَ وَذَلِكَ مَالُهُ وَأمَّا خَلِيلٌ فَيَقُولُ أَنَا مَعَكَ فَإِذَا أَتَيْتَ بَابَ الْمَلِكِ تَرَكْتُكَ وَرَجَعْتُ فَذَاكَ أَهْلُهُ وَحَشَمُهُ وَأمَّا خَلِيلٌ فَيَقُولُ أَنَا مَعَكَ حَيْثُ دَخَلْتَ وَحَيْثُ خَرَجْتَ فَذَاكَ عَمَلُهُ فَيَقُولُ إِنْ كُنْتَ لَأَهْوَنَ الثَّلَاثَةِ عَلَيَّ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "The example of a man and death is like the example of a man who has three friends. One of them said, 'This is my wealth, take whatever you want from it.' The other said, 'I am with you in your life, but when you die, I will leave you.' And the third said, 'I am with you in life and I will enter and leave with you, whether you live or die.' As for the one who said, 'Take whatever you want from it, and leave whatever you want,' that is his wealth. As for the other, it is his family. And as for the third, it is his deeds."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَثَلُ الرَّجُلِ وَمَثَلُ الْمَوْتِ كَمَثَلِ رَجُلٍ لَهُ ثَلَاثَةُ خِلَّانٍ فَقَالَ أَحَدُهُمْ هَذَا مَالِي فَخُذْ مِنْهُ مَا شِئْتَ وَقَالَ الْآخَرُ أَنَا مَعَكَ حَيَاتَكَ فَإِذَا مِتَّ تَرَكْتُكَ وَقَالَ الْآخَرُ أَنَا مَعَكَ أَدْخُلُ وَأَخْرُجُ مَعَكَ إِنْ مِتَّ وَإِنْ حَيِيتَ فَأَمَّا الَّذِي قَالَ خُذْ مِنْهُ مَا شِئْتَ وَدَعْ مَا شِئْتَ فَإِنَّهُ مَالُهُ وَأَمَّا الْآخَرُ عَشِيرَتُهُ وَأَمَّا الْآخَرُ فَهُوَ عَمَلُهُ  

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Prepare food for the family of Ja'far for there came upon them an incident which has engaged them. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 3132)   

قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «اصْنَعُوا لِآلِ جَعْفَرٍ طَعَامًا فَقَدْ أَتَاهُمْ أَمْرٌ يَشْغَلُهُمْ»  

[Machine] "If you had seen me, Qatham and Ubaidullah ibn Abbas playing when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed by on a mount, and he said, 'Bring this to me.' He made me stand in front of him, and then he said to Qatham, 'Bring this to me.' He made him stand behind him. Abbas, his uncle, was too shy to carry Qatham, so he left him and wiped my head three times. When he finished wiping, he said, 'O Allah, replace Jafar with him in his offspring.' I asked Abdullah ibn Jafar, 'What happened to Qatham?' He said, 'He was martyred.' I said to Abdullah, 'Allah and His Messenger knew better about his news.' He said, 'Yes.'"  

لَوْ رَأَيْتَنِي وَقُثَمَ وَعُبَيْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ الْعَبَّاسِ نَلْعَبُ إِذْ مَرَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَلَى دَابَّةٍ فَقَالَ «احْمِلُوا هَذَا إِلَيَّ» فَجَعَلَنِي أَمَامَهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ لِقُثَمَ «احْمِلُوا هَذَا إِلَيَّ» فَجَعَلَهُ وَرَاءَهُ مَا اسْتَحْيَا مِنْ عَمِّهِ الْعَبَّاسِ أَنْ حَمَلَ قُثَمَ وَتَرَكَ عُبَيْدَ اللَّهِ ثُمَّ مَسَحَ بِرَأْسِي ثَلَاثًا فَلَمَّا مَسَحَ قَالَ «اللَّهُمَّ اخْلُفْ جَعْفَرًا فِي وَلَدِهِ» قُلْتُ لِعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ مَا فَعَلَ قُثَمُ؟ قَالَ اسْتُشْهِدَ قُلْتُ لِعَبْدِ اللَّهِ اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ كَانَ أَعْلَمَ بِخَبَرِهِ قَالَ أَجَلْ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ wiped his hand on my head and said, "I think he said it three times. After wiping, he said, 'O Allah, bless Jafar in his children.' Jafar ibn Khalid brought two valuable things, one of which was wiping the head of the orphan, and the other was checking on the people affected by the calamity with what they needed for their night. 'And Allah guided us to use it on their behalf.'"  

مَسَحَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِيَدِهِ عَلَى رَأْسِي قَالَ أَظُنُّهُ قَالَ ثَلَاثًا فَلَمَّا مَسَحَ قَالَ «اللَّهُمَّ اخْلُفْ جَعْفَرًا فِي وَلَدِهِ» قَدْ أَتَى جَعْفَرُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ بِشَيْئَيْنِ عَزِيزَيْنِ أَحَدُهُمَا مَسْحُ رَأْسِ الْيَتِيمِ وَالْآخَرُ تَفَقُّدُ أَهْلِ الْمُصِيبَةِ بِمَا يَتَقَوَّتُونَ لَيْلَتَهُمْ «وَفَّقَنَا اللَّهُ لِاسْتِعْمَالِهِ عَنْهُ»  

[Machine] Bashir, the messenger of Allah ﷺ, narrated to me, and his name in the pre-Islamic era was Zahm bin Ma'bad. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked him, "What is your name?" He responded, "Zahm bin Ma'bad." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "You are Bashir (meaning bearer of glad tidings)." So his name became Bashir. He said, "While I was walking with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, he said to me, 'O son of a noble! Why seek revenge against Allah? You have become someone who walks with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.' So I said, 'I do not seek revenge against Allah for anything. Every good has been done by the Prophet of Allah.' Then he went to the graves of the polytheists and said, 'These people were preceded by many good deeds.' He repeated this statement three times. Then he went to the graves of the Muslims and said, 'These people have attained much good.' He repeated this statement three times. While he was walking, he cast a glance and saw a man walking among the graves wearing sandals. He said, 'O wearer of the two sandals! Woe to you! Throw away your sandals.' So the man looked, and when he recognized the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, he took off his sandals and threw them away.  

حَدَّثَنِي بَشِيرُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَكَانَ اسْمُهُ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ زَحْمُ بْنُ مَعْبَدٍ وَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «مَا اسْمُكَ؟» قَالَ زَحْمُ بْنُ مَعْبَدٍ فَقَالَ «أَنْتَ بَشِيرٌ» فَكَانَ اسْمَهُ قَالَ بَيْنَا أَنَا أُمَاشِي رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ «يَا ابْنَ الْخَصَاصِيَةِ مَا تَنْقِمُ عَلَى اللَّهِ أَصْبَحْتَ تُمَاشِي رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ» فَقُلْتُ مَا أَنْقِمُ عَلَى اللَّهِ شَيْئًا كُلُّ خَيْرٍ فَعَلَ نَبِيُّ اللَّهِ فَأَتَى عَلَى قُبُورٍ مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ فَقَالَ «لَقَدْ سَبَقَ هَؤُلَاءِ بِخَيْرٍ كَثِيرٍ» ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ ثُمَّ أَتَى عَلَى قُبُورِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ فَقَالَ «لَقَدْ أَدْرَكَ هَؤُلَاءِ خَيْرًا كَثِيرًا» ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ فَبَيْنَمَا هُوَ يَمْشِي إِذْ حَانَتْ مِنْهُ نَظْرَةٌ فَإِذَا هُوَ بِرَجُلٍ يَمْشِي بَيْنَ الْقُبُورِ عَلَيْهِ نَعْلَانِ فَقَالَ «يَا صَاحِبَ السِّبْتِيَّتَيْنِ وَيْحَكَ أَلْقِ سِبْتِيَّتَيْكَ» فَنَظَرَ فَلَمَّا عَرَفَ الرَّجُلُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ خَلَعَ نَعْلَيْهِ فَرَمَى بِهِمَا  

[Machine] From the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, that the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, saw a man walking between graves wearing two slippers, so he said, "O the one with the two slippers, throw them away."  

عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ رَأَى رَجُلًا يَمْشِي فِي نَعْلَيْنِ بَيْنَ الْقُبُورِ فَقَالَ «يَا صَاحِبَ السِّبْتِيَّتَيْنِ أَلْقِهِمَا»  

[Machine] We buried a man with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . When we returned and approached his door, we found him with a woman whom we did not think he knew. He said, "O Fatimah, where did you come from?" She replied, "I came from the family of the deceased, I showed them sympathy for their dead and offered them condolences." He asked, "Did you reach the graves with them?" She said, "May Allah forbid me from reaching the graves with them, but I heard you mentioning something about them." He said, "If you had reached the graves with them, you would not have seen Paradise until your grandfather sees it." The graves are called "al-Kuda." This narration was reported by Haywah bin Shurayh al-Hadrami from Rabee'ah bin Seef.  

قَبَرْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ رَجُلًا فَلَمَّا رَجَعْنَا وَحَاذَيْنَا بَابَهُ إِذْ هُوَ بِامْرَأَةٍ لَا نَظُنُّهُ عَرَفَهَا فَقَالَ «يَا فَاطِمَةُ مِنْ أَيْنَ جِئْتِ؟» قَالَتْ جِئْتُ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْمَيِّتِ رَحِمْتُ إِلَيْهِمْ مَيِّتَهُمْ وَعَزَّيْتُهُمْ قَالَ «فَلَعَلَّكِ بَلَغْتَ مَعَهُمُ الْكُدَى؟» قَالَتْ مَعَاذَ اللَّهِ أَنْ أَبْلَغَ مَعَهُمُ الْكُدَى وَقَدْ سَمِعْتُكَ تَذْكُرُ فِيهِ مَا تَذْكُرُ قَالَ «لَوْ بَلَغْتِ مَعَهُمُ الْكُدَى مَا رَأَيْتِ الْجَنَّةَ حَتَّى يَرَى جَدُّ أَبِيكِ» وَالْكُدَى الْمَقَابِرُ رَوَاهُ حَيْوَةُ بْنُ شُرَيْحٍ الْحَضْرَمِيُّ عَنْ رَبِيعَةَ بْنِ سَيْفٍ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ saw a woman leaving a funeral procession and asked her, "Where have you come from?" She replied, "From offering condolences to the family of this deceased." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "By Allah, even if you had reached the heights of the stars, you would not see Paradise until your father sees it first."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَبْصَرَ امْرَأَةً مُنْصَرِفَةً مِنْ جِنَازَةٍ فَسَأَلَهَا «مِنْ أَيْنَ جِئْتِ؟» فَقَالَتْ مِنْ تَعْزِيَةِ أَهْلِ هَذَا الْمَيِّتِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «وَاللَّهِ لَوْ بَلَغْتِ مَعَهُمُ الْكُدَى مَا رَأَيْتِ الْجَنَّةَ حَتَّى يَرَاهَا جَدُّ أَبِيكِ»  

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ cursed women who visit graves, those who built mosques over them and erected lamps (there). (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 3236)  

«لَعَنَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ زَائِرَاتِ الْقُبُورِ وَالْمُتَّخِذِينَ عَلَيْهَا الْمَسَاجِدَ وَالسُّرُجَ»  

[Machine] "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ cursed those who visit graves. And these narrated traditions regarding the prohibition of visiting graves have been abrogated."  

«لَعَنَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ زَوَّارَاتِ الْقُبُورِ» وَهَذِهِ الْأَحَادِيثُ الْمَرْوِيَّةُ فِي النَّهْيِ عَنْ زِيَارَةِ الْقُبُورِ مَنْسُوخَةٌ  

[Machine] The Messenger ﷺ said: "I have forbidden you from visiting graves, so visit them as there is a lesson in it. And I have forbidden you from drinking wine, so abstain from it. I have also forbidden you from seeking intoxication, so do not use any intoxicants. And I have forbidden you from eating the meat of sacrificial animals, so eat from them and save some for later."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ ﷺ قَالَ «نَهَيْتُكُمْ عَنْ زِيَارَةِ الْقُبُورِ فَزُورُوهَا فَإِنَّ فِيهَا عِبْرَةً وَنَهَيْتُكُمْ عَنِ النَّبِيذِ أَلَا فَانْتَبِذُوا وَلَا أُحِلُّ مُسْكِرًا وَنَهَيْتُكُمْ عَنْ لُحُومِ الْأَضَاحِي فَكُلُوا وَادَّخِرُوا»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "I used to prohibit you from visiting graves, eating the meat of sacrificial animals after three days, and drinking from vessels made of clay. But now visit graves, for they remind you of the Hereafter and make you abstain from worldly desires. Eat the meat of sacrificial animals and keep what you wish, for I only advised against it because it was difficult for people. Indeed, every intoxicant is prohibited."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «إِنِّي كُنْتُ نَهَيْتُكُمْ عَنْ زِيَارَةِ الْقُبُورِ وَأَكْلِ لُحُومِ الْأَضَاحِي فَوْقَ ثَلَاثٍ وَعَنْ نَبِيذِ الْأَوْعِيَةِ أَلَا فَزُورُوا الْقُبُورَ فَإِنَّهَا تُزَهِّدُ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَتُذَكِّرُ الْآخِرَةَ وَكُلُوا لُحُومَ الْأَضَاحِي وَابْقُوا مَا شِئْتُمْ فَإِنَّمَا نَهَيْتُكُمْ عَنْهُ إِذِ الْخَيْرُ قَلِيلٌ تَوْسِعَةً عَلَى النَّاسِ أَلَا إِنَّ وِعَاءً لَا يُحَرِّمُ شَيْئًا فَإِنَّ كُلَّ مُسْكِرٍ حَرَامٌ»  

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ as saying: I forbade you to visit graves, but you may now visit them, for in visiting them there is a reminder (of death). (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 3235)   

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «نَهَيْتُكُمْ عَنْ زِيَارَةِ الْقُبُورِ فَزُورُوهَا فَإِنَّهَا تُذَكِّرُكُمُ الْمَوْتُ»  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ visited his mother's grave in a thousand turbans and he was never seen crying so much as on that day.  

«زَارَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ قَبْرَ أُمِّهِ فِي أَلْفِ مُقَنَّعٍ فَلَمْ يُرَ بَاكِيًا أَكْثَرَ مِنْ يَوْمَئِذٍ»  

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ visited his mother's grave and wept and cause those around him to weep. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ then said: I asked my Lord's permission to pray for forgiveness for her, but I was not allowed. I then asked His permission to visit her grave, and I was allowed. So visit graves, for they make one mindful of death. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 3234)   

زَارَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَبْرَ أُمِّهِ فَبَكَى وَأَبْكَى مَنْ حَوْلَهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ «اسْتَأْذَنْتُ رَبِّي أَنْ أَزُورَ قَبْرَهَا فَأَذِنَ لِي وَاسْتَأْذَنْتُهُ أَنْ أَسْتَغْفِرَ لَهَا فَلَمْ يُؤْذَنْ لِي فَزُورُوا الْقُبُورَ فَإِنَّهَا تُذَكِّرُ الْمَوْتُ» وَهَذَا الْحَدِيثُ صَحِيحٌ عَلَى شَرْطِ مُسْلِمٍ وَلَمْ يُخَرِّجَاهُ  

[Machine] We were with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ close to a thousand riders, so he stopped with us and prayed two units of prayer. Then he turned to us with his face, and his eyes were shedding tears. Umar approached him and said, "May my mother and father be sacrificed for you, O Messenger of Allah! What's wrong with you?" He said, "I sought permission from my Lord to seek forgiveness for my mother, but He did not grant me permission. So, my eyes shed tears out of mercy for her. And I sought permission from my Lord to visit her grave, and He granted me permission. And indeed, I had prohibited you from visiting graves, but now visit them, as it will increase you in goodness."  

كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَرِيبًا مِنْ أَلْفِ رَاكِبٍ فَنَزَلَ بِنَا وَصَلَّى بِنَا رَكْعَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ عَلَيْنَا بِوَجْهِهِ وَعَيْنَاهُ تَذْرِفَانِ فَقَامَ إِلَيْهِ عُمَرُ فَفَدَاهُ بِالْأُمِّ وَالْأَبِ يَقُولُ مَا لَكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ؟ قَالَ «إِنِّي اسْتَأْذَنْتُ رَبِّي فِي الِاسْتِغْفَارِ لِأُمِّي فَلَمْ يَأْذَنْ لِي فَدَمَعَ عَيْنَايَ رَحْمَةً لَهَا وَاسْتَأْذَنْتُ رَبِّي فِي زِيَارَتِهَا فَأَذِنَ لِي وَإِنِّي كُنْتُ قَدْ نَهَيْتُكُمْ عَنْ زِيَارَةِ الْقُبُورِ فَزُورُوهَا وَلْيَزِدْكُمْ زِيَارَتُهَا خَيْرًا»  

[Machine] "Aisha arrived one day from the graves, so I said to her, 'O mother of the believers, from where did you come?' She said, 'From the grave of my brother Abdul-Rahman ibn Abi Bakr.' So I said to her, 'Wasn't it the case that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ prohibited visiting graves?' She said, 'Yes, he indeed prohibited it, then he was commanded to visit them.'"  

أَنَّ عَائِشَةَ أَقْبَلَتْ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ مِنَ الْمَقَابِرِ فَقُلْتُ لَهَا يَا أُمَّ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ مِنْ أَيْنَ أَقْبَلْتِ؟ قَالَتْ مِنْ قَبْرِ أَخِي عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ فَقُلْتُ لَهَا أَلَيْسَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ نَهَى عَنْ زِيَارَةِ الْقُبُورِ؟ قَالَتْ نَعَمْ «كَانَ قَدْ نَهَى ثُمَّ أُمِرَ بِزِيَارَتِهَا»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "I used to prohibit you from visiting graves, but now I encourage you to do so, for it softens the heart, brings tears to the eyes, and reminds you of the hereafter. However, do not say anything that will bring harm."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «كُنْتُ نَهَيْتُكُمْ عَنْ زِيَارَةِ الْقُبُورِ أَلَا فَزُورُوهَا فَإِنَّهُ يُرِقُّ الْقَلْبَ وَتُدْمِعُ الْعَيْنَ وَتُذَكِّرُ الْآخِرَةَ وَلَا تَقُولُوا هُجْرًا»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, said: "I used to forbid you from visiting graves, but whoever wishes to visit a grave, let him do so, as it softens the heart, brings tears to the eyes, and reminds of the Hereafter."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «إِنِّي كُنْتُ نَهَيْتُكُمْ عَنْ زِيَارَةِ الْقُبُورِ فَمَنْ شَاءَ أَنْ يَزُورَ قَبْرًا فَلْيَزُرْهُ فَإِنَّهُ يُرِقُّ الْقَلْبَ وَيُدْمِعُ الْعَيْنَ وَيُذَكِّرُ الْآخِرَةَ»  

[Machine] "To me, O Messenger of Allah ﷺ , visit the graves, as it reminds one of the hereafter. Wash the dead, for treating their bodies is a powerful reminder. Pray for the deceased, as it may sadden you, but surely, the one who is saddened in the shade of Allah will encounter all good."  

لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «زُرِ الْقُبُورَ تَذَكَّرْ بِهَا الْآخِرَةَ وَاغْسِلِ الْمَوْتَى فَإِنَّ مُعَالَجَةَ جَسَدِهِ مَوْعِظَةٌ بَلِيغَةٌ وَصَلِّ عَلَى الْجَنَائِزِ لَعَلَّ ذَلِكَ أَنْ يُحْزِنَكَ فَإِنَّ الْحَزِينَ فِي ظِلِّ اللَّهِ يَتَعَرَّضُ كُلَّ خَيْرٍ»  

[Machine] That Fatimah, the daughter of the Prophet (Peace be upon him), used to visit the grave of her uncle Hamza every Friday and pray and cry by it. This hadith is narrated by trustworthy narrators, and I have thoroughly researched the encouragement to visit graves in order to participate in promoting its virtues and for the sinner to know his own shortcomings. It is a recommended practice. May Allah bless Muhammad and his family.  

أَنَّ فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ كَانَتْ «تَزُورُ قَبْرَ عَمِّهَا حَمْزَةَ كُلَّ جُمُعَةٍ فَتُصَلِّي وَتَبْكِي عِنْدَهُ» هَذَا الْحَدِيثُ رُوَاتُهُ عَنْ آخِرِهِمْ ثِقَاتٌ وَقَدِ اسْتَقْصَيْتُ فِي الْحَثِّ عَلَى زِيَارَةِ الْقُبُورِ تَحَرِّيًا لِلْمُشَارَكَةِ فِي التَّرْغِيبِ وَلِيَعْلَمَ الشَّحِيحُ بِذَنَبِهِ أَنَّهَا سُنَّةٌ مَسْنُونَةٌ وَصَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَآلِهِ أَجْمَعِينَ  

[Machine] I was sitting with the Prophet ﷺ when a funeral procession passed by. He asked, "What is this?" They replied, "It is the funeral of so and so, who used to love Allah and His Messenger, and act obediently towards Allah and strive in His cause." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "It is obligatory, it is obligatory, it is obligatory." Then another funeral procession passed by, and they said, "It is the funeral of so and so, who used to despise Allah and His Messenger, and disobey Allah and strive in sins." The Prophet ﷺ said, "It is obligatory, it is obligatory, it is obligatory." They said, "O Messenger of Allah, your statement about the funeral and praising it, you praised the first and condemned the second." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Yes, indeed, O Abu Bakr. Verily, Allah has angels who convey the words of the people to other humans, whether they are good or bad."  

كُنْتُ قَاعِدًا مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَمُرَّ بِجِنَازَةٍ فَقَالَ «مَا هَذِهِ؟» قَالُوا جِنَازَةُ فُلَانِيِّ الْفُلَانِ كَانَ يُحِبُّ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ وَيَعْمَلُ بِطَاعَةِ اللَّهِ وَيَسْعَى فِيهَا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «وَجَبَتْ وَجَبَتْ وَجَبَتْ» وَمُرَّ بِجِنَازَةٍ أُخْرَى قَالُوا جِنَازَةُ فُلَانٍ الْفُلَانِيِّ كَانَ يُبْغِضُ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ وَيَعْمَلُ بِمَعْصِيَةِ اللَّهِ وَيَسْعَى فِيهَا فَقَالَ «وَجَبَتْ وَجَبَتْ وَجَبَتْ» فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَوْلُكَ فِي الْجِنَازَةِ وَالثَّنَاءِ عَلَيْهَا أُثْنِيَ عَلَى الْأَوَّلِ خَيْرٌ وَعَلَى الْآخَرِ شَرٌّ فَقُلْتَ فِيهَا وَجَبَتْ وَجَبَتْ وَجَبَتْ فَقَالَ «نَعَمْ يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ إِنَّ لِلَّهِ مَلَائِكَةً تَنْطِقُ عَلَى أَلْسِنَةِ بَنِي آدَمَ بِمَا فِي الْمَرْءِ مِنَ الْخَيْرِ وَالشَّرِّ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "There is no Muslim who dies and four people from his closest neighbors testify that they only knew goodness from him, except that Allah, the Exalted and Blessed, accepts your testimony and forgives him for what you do not know."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَا مِنْ مُسْلِمٍ يَمُوتُ فَيَشْهَدُ لَهُ أَرْبَعَةٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ أَبْيَاتِ جِيرَانِهِ الْأَدْنَيْنَ أَنَّهُمْ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ مِنْهُ إِلَّا خَيْرًا إِلَّا قَالَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى وَتَبَارَكَ قَدْ قَبِلْتُ قَوْلَكُمْ أَوْ قَالَ شَهَادَتَكُمْ وَغَفَرْتُ لَهُ مَا لَا تَعْلَمُونَ  

[Machine] A man came to the messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, "O messenger of Allah, guide me to a deed that if I do it, I will enter paradise." He replied, "Be good and kind to others." The man asked, "How will I know if I am good and kind?" He said, "Ask your neighbors. If they say that you are good and kind, then you are, and if they say that you are not, then you are not."  

جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ دُلَّنِي عَلَى عَمَلٍ إِذَا أَنَا عَمِلْتُ بِهِ دَخَلْتُ الْجَنَّةَ قَالَ «كُنَّ مُحْسِنًا» قَالَ كَيْفَ أَعْلَمُ أَنِّي مُحْسِنٌ؟ قَالَ سَلْ جِيرَانَكَ فَإِنْ قَالُوا إِنَّكَ مُحْسِنٌ فَأَنْتَ مُحْسِنٌ وَإِنَّ قَالُوا إِنَّكَ مُسِيءٌ فَأَنْتَ مُسِيءٌ  

[Machine] It was said, "O Messenger of Allah, who are the people of Paradise?" He said, "Those who do not die until their ears are filled with what they love." It was said, "Who are the people of Hell?" He said, "Those who do not die until their ears are filled with what they dislike."  

قِيلَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَنْ أَهْلُ الْجَنَّةِ؟ قَالَ «مَنْ لَا يَمُوتُ حَتَّى تُمْلَأَ أُذُنَاهُ مِمَّا يُحِبُّ» قِيلَ مَنْ أَهْلُ النَّارِ؟ قَالَ «مَنْ لَا يَمُوتُ حَتَّى تُمْلَأَ أُذُنَاهُ مِمَّا يَكْرَهُ»  

Um Al-ʿAla an Ansari woman who had given a pledge of allegiance to Messenger of Allah ﷺ told me:, "The Muhajirln (emigrants) were distributed amongst us by drawing lots, and we got ʿUthman bin Maz'un in our share. We made him stay with us in our house. Then he suffered from a disease which proved fatal. When he died and was given a bath and was shrouded in his clothes. Messenger of Allah ﷺ came, I said, (addressing the dead body), 'O Aba As-Sa'ib! May Allah be Merciful to you! I testify that Allah has honored you.' Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'How do you know that Allah has honored him?" I replied, 'Let my father be sacrificed for you, O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! On whom else shall Allah bestow. His honor?' Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'As for him, by Allah, death has come to him. By Allah, I wish him all good (from Allah). By Allah, in spite of the fact that I am Messenger of Allah ﷺ, I do not know what Allah will do to me.", Um Al-ʿAla added, "By Allah, I will never attest the righteousness of anybody after that." (Using translation from Bukhārī 7003)  

أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ أُمَّ الْعَلَاءِ امْرَأَةً مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ قَدْ بَايَعَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَخْبَرَتْهُ أَنَّهُمُ اقْتَسِمُوا لِلْمُهَاجِرِينَ قُرْعَةً فَطَارَ لَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ مَظْعُونٍ فَأَنْزَلْنَاهُ فِي أَبْيَاتِنَا فَوَجِعَ وَجَعَهُ الَّذِي مَاتَ فِيهِ فَلَمَّا تُوُفِّيَ غُسِّلَ وَكُفِّنَ فِي أَثْوَابِهِ دَخَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقُلْتُ يَا عُثْمَانَ بْنَ مَظْعُونٍ رَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْكَ أَبَا السَّائِبِ فَشَهَادَتِي عَلَيْكَ لَقَدْ أَكْرَمَكَ اللَّهُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «وَمَا يُدْرِيكِ أَنَّ اللَّهَ أَكْرَمَهُ؟» فَقَالَتْ بِأَبِي أَنْتَ وَأُمِّي يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَمَنْ يُكْرِمُهُ اللَّهُ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «أَمَّا هُوَ فَقَدْ جَاءَهُ الْيَقِينُ فَوَاللَّهِ إِنِّي لَأَرْجُو لَهُ الْخَيْرَ وَاللَّهِ مَا أَدْرِي وَأَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ مَاذَا يُفْعَلُ بِي؟» قَالَتْ فَوَاللَّهِ مَا أُزَكِّي بَعْدَهُ أَحَدًا أَبَدًا  

[Machine] "He used to say after the Tashahhud words that he would greatly emphasize them. I said, 'Both of them?' He replied, 'Rather, in the other second unit of prayer after the Tashahhud.' I asked, 'What are they?' He said, 'I seek refuge in Allah from the punishment of Hell, and I seek refuge in Allah from the punishment of the grave, and I seek refuge in Allah from the evil of the Antichrist, and I seek refuge in Allah from the trials of life and death.' He used to greatly emphasize them." Ibn Jurayj said, "Abdullah ibn Tawus informed me, who informed me from his father, who heard it from Aisha, from the Prophet ﷺ ."  

أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَقُولُ بَعْدَ التَّشَهُّدِ كَلِمَاتٍ كَانَ يُعَظِّمُهُنَّ جِدًّا قُلْتُ فِي الِاثْنَتَيْنِ كِلَاهُمَا؟ قَالَ بَلْ فِي الْمُثَنَّى الْآخَرِ بَعْدَ التَّشَهُّدِ قُلْتُ مَا هُوَ؟ قَالَ «أَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنْ عَذَابِ جَهَنَّمَ وَأَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنْ عَذَابِ الْقَبْرِ وَأَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنْ شَرِّ الْمَسِيحِ الدَّجَّالِ وَأَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنْ فِتْنَةِ الْمَحْيَا وَالْمَمَاتِ» قَالَ وَكَانَ يُعَظِّمُهُنَّ قَالَ ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ أَخْبَرَنِيهِ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ طَاوُسٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said, "Indeed, the deceased can hear the sound of their footsteps when they turn away. If they are a believer, their prayer will be near their head, their fasting will be on their right, and their zakat will be on their left. The acts of goodness such as charity, prayer, maintaining family ties, and kindness towards people will come in front of their feet. Then it will be said to them to sit down, and they will sit down. The sun will be shown to them, nearing its setting. They will be asked, 'What do you say about this man who was among you and what do you testify about him?' They will say, 'Let me pray.' They will be told, 'You will pray, but inform us about what we ask you.' They will say, 'Let me pray.' They will be told, 'You will pray, but inform us about what we ask you.' They will say, 'Let me pray.' They will be told, 'You will pray, but inform us about what we ask you.' They will say, 'Let me pray.' They will be told, 'You will pray, but inform us about what we ask you.' They will say, 'Let me pray.' They will say, 'What do you say about this man who was among you and what do you testify about him?' They will say, 'Which man?' They will be asked, 'The man who was among you.' They will say, 'He is not guided by him.' They will be asked, 'Muhammad?' They will say, 'I heard people say, so I said as they said.' They will be told, 'You lived and died upon that. And you will be resurrected upon that, if Allah wills.' Then a door to the Hellfire will be opened before them and it will be said, 'Look at your place and what Allah has prepared for you, had you obeyed.' They will gain more regret and sorrow. Then a door to Paradise will be opened before them and it will be said, 'Look at your place and what Allah has prepared for you.' They will gain more happiness and joy. This is the saying of Allah: 'Allah keeps firm those who believe, with the firm word, in worldly life and in the Hereafter. And Allah sends astray the wrongdoers. And Allah does what He wills.' [Ibrahim 27]." Abu Al-Hakam narrated it from Abu Hurairah, and it was said to him, "Let him rest, the rest of a bridegroom who is not awakened except by the closest of his family or the ones dearest to his heart." Then he returned to the Hadith of Abu Salamah from Abu Hurairah, who said, "And if he is a disbeliever, nothing comes to him from his head, and nothing comes to him from his right, and nothing comes to him from his left, and nothing comes to him from his feet. It will be said to him to sit down, and he will sit down in fear and terror. He will be asked, 'What do you say about this man who was among you and what do you testify about him?' He will say, 'Which man?' They will say, 'The man who was among you.' He will say, 'I say nothing about him.' They will be asked, 'Muhammad?' He will say, 'I didn't hear anything about him.' They will be told, 'You lived and died upon that. And you will be resurrected upon that, if Allah wills.' Then a door to Paradise will be opened before them and it will be said, 'Look at your place and what Allah has prepared for you, had you obeyed.' They will gain more regret and destruction. Then his grave will constrict upon him until his ribs close in on each other. This is the saying of Allah: 'Then indeed, for him is a restricted living. And We will gather him on the Day of Resurrection blind.' [Ta-Ha 124]."
