فَصْلٌ ثَانٍ فِي عَذَابِ أَهْلِ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ فِي الْقَبْرِ
Second section on the punishment of the people of ignorance in the grave
Hadith 3316
عَنْ أُمِّ مُبَشِّرٍ (امْرَأَةِ زَيْدِ بْنِ حَارِثَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا) قَالَتْ: دَخَلَ عَلَيَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَأَنَا فِي حَائِطٍ مِنْ حَوَائِطِ بَنِي النَّجَّارِ، فِيهِ قُبُورٌ مِنْهُمْ، قَدْ مَاتُوا فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ، فَسَمِعَهُمْ وَهُمْ يُعَذَّبُونَ، فَخَرَجَ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ: ((اسْتَعِيذُوا بِاللَّهِ مِنْ عَذَابِ الْقَبْرِ))، قَالَتْ: قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ! وَإِنَّهُمْ لَيُعَذَّبُونَ فِي قُبُورِهِمْ؟ قَالَ: ((نَعَمْ عَذَابًا تَسْمَعُهُ الْبَهَائِمُ))
Sayyida Umm Mubashir (may Allah be pleased with her) says: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) came to me while I was in one of the gardens of Banu Najjar. There were some graves in that garden, and those buried there had died in the pre-Islamic (Jahiliyyah) period. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) heard the sounds of their punishment, so he left saying: "Seek Allah's refuge from the punishment of the grave." I asked: "O Messenger of Allah! Are these people being punished in their graves?" He (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) replied: "Yes, they are being punished in such a way that animals can hear it."
Hadith 3317
عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: دَخَلَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَائِطًا مِنْ حِيطَانِ الْمَدِينَةِ لِبَنِي النَّجَّارِ، فَسَمِعَ صَوْتًا مِنْ قَبْرٍ، فَسَأَلَ عَنْهُ: ((مَتَى دُفِنَ هَذَا؟))، فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ! دُفِنَ هَذَا فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ، فَأَعْجَبَهُ ذَلِكَ وَقَالَ: ((لَوْ لَا أَنْ لَا تَدَافَنُوا لَدَعَوْتُ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ أَنْ يُسْمِعَكُمْ عَذَابَ الْقَبْرِ))
Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) went to a garden of Banu Najjar in Madinah Munawwarah. There, he (peace and blessings be upon him) heard a sound from a grave and asked, "When was this man buried?" The companions replied, "O Messenger of Allah! This man was buried in the pre-Islamic era of ignorance." Upon hearing this, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) felt somewhat reassured and said, "If I did not fear that you would stop burying your dead, I would pray to Allah Almighty to let you hear the punishment of the grave."
Hadith 3318
(وَعَنْهُ مِنْ طَرِيقٍ ثَانٍ) قَالَ: دَخَلَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ خَرِبًا لِبَنِي النَّجَّارِ، وَكَانَ يَقْضِي فِيهَا حَاجَةً، فَخَرَجَ إِلَيْنَا مَذْعُورًا أَوْ فَزِعًا، وَقَالَ: ((لَوْلَا أَنْ لَا تَدَافَنُوا لَسَأَلْتُ اللَّهَ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى أَنْ يُسْمِعَكُمْ مِنْ عَذَابِ أَهْلِ الْقُبُورِ مَا أَسْمَعَنِي))
(Second chain of narration) They say: The Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, entered a deserted place belonging to Banu Najjar, where he, peace and blessings be upon him, used to relieve himself. One day, he came out from there in a state of distress and said: If I did not fear that you would stop burying your dead, I would pray to Allah Almighty to let you hear the sounds of the punishment of the people of the graves that I hear.
Hadith 3319
عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ فِي حَائِطٍ مِنْ حِيطَانِ الْمَدِينَةِ فِي أَقْبُرٍ وَهُوَ عَلَى بَغْلَتِهِ فَحَادَتْ بِهِ، وَكَادَتْ أَنْ تُلْقِيَهُ، فَقَالَ: ((مَنْ يَعْرِفُ هَذِهِ الْأَقْبُرَ؟))، فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ! قَوْمٌ هَلَكُوا فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ؟ فَقَالَ: ((لَوْلَا أَنْ لَّا تَدَافَنُوا لَدَعَوْتُ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ أَنْ يُّسْمِعَكُمْ عَذَابَ الْقَبْرِ))، ثُمَّ قَالَ لَنَا: ((تَعَوَّذُوا بِاللَّهِ مِنْ عَذَابِ جَهَنَّمَ))، قُلْنَا: نَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنْ عَذَابِ جَهَنَّمَ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: ((تَعَوَّذُوا بِاللَّهِ مِنْ فِتْنَةِ الْمَسِيحِ الدَّجَّالِ))، فَقُلْنَا: نَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنْ فِتْنَةِ الْمَسِيحِ الدَّجَّالِ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: ((تَعَوَّذُوا بِاللَّهِ مِنْ عَذَابِ الْقَبْرِ))، فَقُلْنَا: نَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنْ عَذَابِ الْقَبْرِ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: ((تَعَوَّذُوا بِاللَّهِ مِنْ فِتْنَةِ الْمَحْيَا وَالْمَمَاتِ))، فَقُلْنَا: نَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنْ فِتْنَةِ الْمَحْيَا وَالْمَمَاتِ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) that Sayyiduna Zaid bin Thabit (may Allah be pleased with him) said: We were with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) in a garden in Madinah, where there were also some graves. The mule on which the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was riding suddenly became startled and was about to throw him off. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: Who knows about the people of these graves? A man said: O Messenger of Allah! These people died in the period of ignorance before Islam. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: If I were not afraid that you would stop burying your dead, I would have prayed to Allah that He let you hear the sounds of the punishment of the grave. Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said to us: Seek refuge with Allah from the punishment of Hell. We said: We seek refuge with Allah from the punishment of Hell. Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Seek refuge with Allah from the trial of the False Messiah (Dajjal). We said: We seek refuge with Allah from the trial of the False Messiah. Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Seek refuge with Allah from the punishment of the grave. We said: We seek refuge with Allah from the punishment of the grave as well. Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Seek refuge with Allah from the trials of life and death. We said: We seek refuge with Allah from the trials of life and death.
