Hadith 5790

حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا وَهْبُ بْنُ جَرِيرٍ ، أَخْبَرَنَا أَبِي ، عَنْ عَمِّهِ جَرِيرِ بْنِ زَيْدٍ ، قَالَ : كُنْتُ مَعَ سَالِمِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ عَلَى باب دَارِهِ ، فَقَالَ : سَمِعْتُ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ ، سَمِعَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَحْوَهُ .
‘Abdullah bin Muhammad al-Musnadi narrated to me, he said: Wahb bin Jarir narrated to us, he said: My father informed me, from his uncle Jarir bin Zaid, who said: I was with Salim bin ‘Abdullah bin ‘Umar at the door of his house. He narrated that I heard Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) say, he narrated from the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) a hadith similar to this.
حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ عُفَيْرٍ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنِي اللَّيْثُ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ خَالِدٍ ، عَنْ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ ، عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، أَنَّ أَبَاهُ حَدَّثَهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : " بَيْنَا رَجُلٌ يَجُرُّ إِزَارَهُ ، إِذْ خُسِفَ بِهِ ، فَهُوَ يَتَجَلَّلُ فِي الْأَرْضِ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ " ، تَابَعَهُ يُونُسُ ، عَنْ الزُّهْرِيِّ وَلَمْ يَرْفَعْهُ شُعَيْبٌ ، عَنْ الزُّهْرِيِّ .
Narrated `Abdullah bin `Umar: Allah's Apostle said, "While a man was dragging his Izar on the ground (behind him), suddenly Allah made him sink into the earth and he will go on sinking into it till the Day of Resurrection." Narrated Abu Huraira: that he heard the Prophet (narrating as above No. 680).

Hadith Commentary:
It is said that the one who was swallowed by the earth was the wretched Qarun, whose mention is found in the Noble Qur’an.
Alas, in the present era, countless such Qaruns are found in every household who, as a fashion, drag their lower garments, shalwar, or pants on the ground out of pride and arrogance.
May the curse of Allah be upon such fashion.
We must reconsider this matter.
This is a very dangerous habit.
As a punishment, one can be swallowed by the earth.
May Allah, the Exalted, protect us from this.
Ameen.
