"while we were traveling with the Messenger of Allah, he saw a woman, and did not think that he knew her. When she was halfway to him, he stopped until she reached him, and it was Fatimah, the daughter of the Messenger of Allah. He said to her: 'What brought you out of your house, O Fatimah?' She said: 'I came to the people of this deceased one to pray for mercy for them, and to offer my condolences to them.' He said: 'Perhaps you went with them to Al-Kuda?" She said: 'Allah forbid that I should go there. I heard what you said about that.' He said: If you had gone there with them, you would never have seen Paradise until the grandfather of your father saw it."' (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1880)  

الكبرى للنسائي:٢٠١٩أَخْبَرَنِي عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ فَضَالَةَ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ يَزِيدَ الْمُقْرِئُ وَأخبرنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ الْمُقْرِئُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي رَبِيعَةُ بْنُ سَيْفٍ الْمَعَافِرِيُّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْحُبُلِيِّ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو قَالَ

بَيْنَمَا نَحْنُ نَسِيرُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ إِذْ بَصَرَ بِامْرَأَةٍ لَا نَظُنُّ أَنَّهُ عَرِفَهَا فَلَمَّا تَوَسَّطَ الطَّرِيقَ وَقَفَ حَتَّى انْتَهَتْ إِلَيْهِ فَإِذَا فَاطِمَةُ بِنْتُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ لَهَا «مَا أَخْرَجَكِ مِنْ بَيْتِكِ يَا فَاطِمَةُ؟» قَالَتْ أَتَيْتُ أَهْلَ هَذَا الْمَيِّتِ فَتَرَحَّمْتُ إِلَيْهِمْ وَعَزَّيْتُهُمْ لِمَيِّتِهِمْ فَقَالَ «لَعَلَّكِ بَلَغْتِ مَعَهُمُ الْكُدَى» قَالَتْ مَعَاذَ اللهِ أَنْ أَكُونَ بَلَغْتُهَا وَقَدْ سَمِعْتُكَ تَذْكُرُ فِي ذَلِكَ مَا تَذْكُرُ فَقَالَ «لَوْ بَلَغْتِهَا مَعَهُمْ مَا رَأَيْتِ الْجَنَّةَ حَتَّى يَرَاهَا جَدُّ أَبِيكِ»

We buried a deceased person in the company of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. When we had finished, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ returned and we also returned with him. When he approached his door, he stopped, and we saw a woman coming towards him. He (the narrator) said: I think he recognized her. When she went away, we came to know that she was Fatimah. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to her: What brought you out of your house, Fatimah? She replied: I came to the people of this house, Messenger of Allah, and I showed pity and expressed my condolences to them for their deceased relation. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: You might have gone to the graveyard with them. She replied: I seek refuge in Allah! I heard you referring to what you mentioned. He said: If you had gone to the graveyard...He then mentioned severe words about it. I then asked Rabi'ah (a narrator of this tradition) about al-kuda (stony land). He replied: I think it means the graves.

[Machine] We accompanied the Messenger of Allah ﷺ to bury a man. When we returned and reached his door, there was a woman facing us whom we didn't think he knew. He said, "O Fatimah, where did you come from?" She said, "I came from the people of this household. I visited them in their time of bereavement and consoled them." He said, "Did you tell them about the hardship?" She said, "May Allah forbid that I convey to them the hardship. However, I heard you mention in it what you mentioned." He said, "If you had conveyed the hardship, you would not have seen the gate of Paradise until your father saw it, and the graves are the hardship."
