عَنْ حُذَيْفَةَ بْنِ الْيَمَانِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: كُنَّا مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي جَنَازَةٍ، فَلَمَّا انْتَهَيْنَا إِلَى الْقَبْرِ قَعَدَ عَلَى شَفَتِهِ فَجَعَلَ يَرُدُّ بَصَرَهُ فِيهِ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: ((يُضْغَطُ الْمُؤْمِنُ فِيهِ ضَغْطَةً تَزُولُ مِنْهَا حَمَائِلُهُ وَيُمْلَأُ عَلَى الْكَافِرِ نَارًا))، ثُمَّ قَالَ: ((أَلَا أُخْبِرُكُمْ بِشَرِّ عِبَادِ اللَّهِ؟ الْفَظُّ الْمُسْتَكْبِرُ، أَلَا أَخْبِرُكُمْ بِخَيْرِ عِبَادِ اللَّهِ؟ الضَّعِيفُ الْمُسْتَضْعَفُ ذُو الطِّمْرَيْنِ لَوْ أَقْسَمَ عَلَى اللَّهِ لَأَبَرَّ اللَّهُ قَسَمَهُ))
Sayyiduna Hudhayfah bin Yaman (may Allah be pleased with him) says: We were present with the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) at a funeral. When we came near the grave, the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) sat down at the edge of the grave and began to look inside it. Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The believer is pressed in the grave to such an extent that the bones of his shoulders and chest are displaced from their places, and the grave of the disbeliever is filled with fire. Shall I not tell you who are the worst among the servants of Allah? They are those who are ill-tempered and arrogant. And shall I not also tell you who are the best servants of Allah? They are those weak and poor ones who wear two worn-out garments, whom people also consider weak, but if they swear by Allah, He fulfills their oath.
