Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 6625

وَعَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ : تُوُفِّيَ رَجُلٌ فَغَسَّلْنَاهُ ، وَكَفَّنَّاهُ ، وَحَنَّطْنَاهُ ، ثُمَّ أَتَيْنَا بِهِ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - يُصَلِّي عَلَيْهِ فَخَطَا خُطْوَةً ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : " أَعَلَيْهِ دَيْنٌ ؟ " قُلْتُ : دِينَارَانِ . فَانْصَرَفَ فَتَحَمَّلَهُمَا أَبُو قَتَادَةَ ، فَأَتَيْنَاهُ ، فَقَالَ أَبُو قَتَادَةَ : الدِّينَارَانِ عَلَيَّ ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " قَدْ أَوْفَى اللَّهُ حَقَّ الْغَرِيمِ وَبَرِئَ مِنْهَا الْمَيِّتُ ؟ " . قَالَ : نَعَمْ . فَصَلَّى عَلَيْهِ ، ثُمَّ قَالَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ بِيَوْمٍ : " مَا فَعَلَ الدِّينَارَانِ ؟ " . قُلْتُ : إِنَّمَا مَاتَ أَمْسِ ! قَالَ : فَعَادَ إِلَيْهِ مِنَ الْغَدِ ، فَقَالَ : قَدْ قَضَيْتُهُمَا . فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " الْآنَ بَرَدَتْ عَلَيْهِ جِلْدَتُهُ " .
قُلْتُ : رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُدَ بِاخْتِصَارٍ .
رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ ، وَالْبَزَّارُ ، وَإِسْنَادُهُ حَسَنٌ .
Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: A man passed away. We washed him, shrouded him and applied perfume to him, then brought him to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) so that he would offer his funeral prayer. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) took a step, then asked: "Is there a debt upon him?" I said: "Two dinars." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) turned away. Sayyiduna Abu Qatadah (may Allah be pleased with him) took the payment of the two upon himself. Then we came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and Sayyiduna Abu Qatadah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "The payment of the two dinars is upon me." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Allah has had the creditor's right fulfilled, and the deceased is now free of it?" He replied: "Yes!" So the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) offered the man's funeral prayer. A day after that, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "What has become of the matter of the two dinars?" I said: "He only passed away yesterday!" The narrator says: The next day he came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: "I have paid them both." Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Now his skin has become cool for him." (Allamah al-Haythami says:) I say: Imam Abu Dawud recorded it in abridged form.
Imam Ahmad and Imam al-Bazzar recorded it, and its chain is hasan (good).
