Chapter: What was narrated concerning visiting the graves of the idolaters
Hadith 1573
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيل بْنِ الْبَخْتَرِيِّ الْوَاسِطِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ سَعْدٍ ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ ، عَنْ سَالِمٍ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، قَالَ : جَاءَ أَعْرَابِيٌّ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، إِنَّ أَبِي كَانَ يَصِلُ الرَّحِمَ ، وَكَانَ وَكَانَ فَأَيْنَ هُوَ ؟ ، قَالَ : " فِي النَّارِ " ، قَالَ : فَكَأَنَّهُ وَجَدَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ ، فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، فَأَيْنَ أَبُوكَ ، قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " حَيْثُمَا مَرَرْتَ بِقَبْرِ كَافِرٍ ، فَبَشِّرْهُ بِالنَّارِ " ، قَالَ : فَأَسْلَمَ الْأَعْرَابِيُّ بَعْدُ ، وَقَالَ : لَقَدْ كَلَّفَنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ تَعَبًا ، مَا مَرَرْتُ بِقَبْرِ كَافِرٍ ، إِلَّا بَشَّرْتُهُ بِالنَّارِ .
´It was narrated from Salim that his father said:` “A Bedouin came to the Prophet (ﷺ) and said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, my father used to uphold the ties of kinship, and so and so forth, where is he?’ He said: ‘In the Fire.’ It was as if he found that difficult to bear. Then he said: ‘O Messenger of Allah. Where is your father?’ The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: ‘Whenever you pass by the grave of an idolater, give him the tidings of Hell-fire.’ The Bedouin later became Muslim, and he said: ‘The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) gave me a difficult task. I never passed the grave of an idolater but I gave him the tidings of Hell-fire.’”
