عَنْ جَرِيرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْبَجَلِيِّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ رَجُلًا جَاءَ فَدَخَلَ فِي الْإِسْلَامِ، فَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُعَلِّمُهُ الْإِسْلَامَ وَهُوَ فِي مَسِيرِهِ فَدَخَلَ خُفُّ بَعِيرِهِ فِي جُحْرِ يَرْبُوعٍ فَوَقَصَهُ بَعِيرُهُ فَمَاتَ، فَأَتَى عَلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ: ((عَمِلَ قَلِيلًا وَأُجِرَ كَثِيرًا، قَالَهَا حَمَّادٌ، ثَلَاثًا، اللَّحْدُ لَنَا وَالشَّقُّ لِغَيْرِنَا))
Sayyiduna Jarir bin Abdullah Bajali رضي الله عنه narrates that a man came and accepted Islam. During a journey, the Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم kept teaching him about Islam. While walking, his camel’s foot fell into the hole of a certain kind of small mouse, because of which he fell from the camel and died. The Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم came to his body and said: He did little deeds, but received great reward.)) The narrator Hammad repeated this sentence three times. Then the Prophet صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم said: The lahd (side niche grave) is for us, and the shaqq (simple trench grave) is for others.
