nasai-kubra:1994Muḥammad b. Ādam > ʿAbdah > Hishām from his father > Ibn ʿUmar

'The deceased is punished due to his family's weeping over him; Mention of that was made to 'Aishah and she said: 'He is wrong; rather the Prophet passed by a grave and said: The occupant of this grave is being punished and his family are weeping for him." Then she recited: And no bearer of burdens shall bear another's burden. (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1855)

قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِنَّ الْمَيِّتَ لَيُعَذَّبُ بِبُكَاءِ أَهْلِهِ عَلَيْهِ فَذُكِرَ ذَلِكَ لِعَائِشَةَ فَقَالَتْ وَهَلْ إِنَّمَا مَرَّ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ عَلَى قَبْرٍ فَقَالَ إِنَّ صَاحِبَ هَذَا الْقَبْرِ لَيُعَذَّبُ وَإِنَّ أَهْلَهُ يَبْكُونَ عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ قَرَأَتْ {وَلَا تَزِرُ وَازِرَةٌ وِزْرَ أُخْرَى} [الأنعام 164]

ahmad:4865Yazīd > Muḥammad b. ʿAmr > Yaḥyá b. ʿAbd al-Raḥman b. Ḥāṭib > Ibn ʿUmar

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed by a grave and said, "Verily, the occupant of this grave is being punished now because of the weeping of his family over him." Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) said, "May Allah forgive Abu Abdur Rahman. Indeed, does not Allah say, 'And no bearer of burdens will bear the burden of another'" (Surah Al Anaam 164). The Messenger of Allah ﷺ only said that this person is being punished now while his family weeps over him.
