اُردوEn
قَالَ عَبْدٌ : حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الزُّهْرِيُّ ، ثَنَا أَبِي هُوَ ابْنُ سَعْدٍ ، عَنْ صَالِحِ بْنِ كَيْسَانَ ، عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ ، يَقُولُ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " لَا يَبْكِي عَبْدٌ فَتَقْطُرُ عَيْنَاهُ مِنْ خَشْيَةِ اللهِ تَعَالَى فَيُدْخِلُهُ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ النَّارَ أَبَدًا ، حَتَّى يَعُودَ قَطْرُ السَّمَاءِ " . وَيُقَالُ : إِنَّهُ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَامَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ حِينَ رَجَعَ النَّاسُ مِنْ مُؤْتَةَ وَفِي يَدِهِ قِطْعَةٌ مِنْ خُبْزٍ ، فَلَمَّا ذَكَرَ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ شَأْنَهُمْ فَاضَتْ عَيْنَاهُ فَمَسَحَ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَجْهَهُ وَقَالَ : " أَلَا إِنَّمَا أَنَا بَشَرٌ ، أَعُوذُ بِاللهِ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ الرَّجِيمِ ، إِنَّ الْمَرْءَ يَرَى أَنَّهُ كَثِيرٌ بِأَخِيهِ ، مَنْ لَهُ عِنْدِي عِدَةٌ ؟ " . فَقَالَ سَلْمَانُ الْفَارِسِيُّ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ : أَنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ فَأَعْطَاهُ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِيَّاهَا ، قَالَ : وَقَالَتْ بَرَكَةُ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهَا : لَمَّا حَضَرَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ابْنَتَهُ وَهِيَ تَمُوتُ وَهِيَ تَحْتَ عُثْمَانَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُمَا ، فَاضَتْ عَيْنَاهُ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَبَكَتْ بَرَكَةُ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهَا وَنَتَفَتْ رَأْسَهَا ، فَزَجَرَهَا صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَتْ : أَتَبْكِي يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ وَنَحْنُ سُكُوتٌ ؟ قَالَ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " إِنَّ الَّذِي رَأَيْتِ مِنِّي رَحْمَةٌ لَهَا ، وَإِنَّمَا أَنَا بَشَرٌ ، إِنَّ الْمُؤْمِنَ بِكُلِّ مَنْزِلَةٍ صَالِحَةٍ مِنَ اللهِ تَعَالَى عَلَى عُسْرٍ أَوْ يُسْرٍ " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "There is no servant who weeps out of the fear of Allah Almighty such that tears flow from his eyes, and then Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, ever enters him into the Fire of Hell (this is impossible), until the drop that has rained from the sky returns (to the clouds)." And it is narrated that when the people returned from the expedition of Mu'tah, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) took his place on the pulpit with a piece of bread in his blessed hand. When he (peace and blessings be upon him) mentioned the circumstances of those (Companions), his (peace and blessings be upon him) blessed eyes filled with tears, so he (peace and blessings be upon him) wiped his blessed face and said: "Know that I am only a human being. 'A'udhu billahi min al-shaytan al-rajim' (I seek refuge in Allah from Satan, the accursed). Indeed, a man feels himself to be very (strong) through his brother (his companionship and support). (Which of you) is owed a promise by me?" At this Sayyiduna Salman al-Farisi (may Allah be pleased with him) said: O Messenger of Allah! I am. So he (peace and blessings be upon him) gave him that piece. Sayyidah Barakah (Umm Ayman) (may Allah be pleased with her) relates that when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came to his daughter while she was in the throes of death, and she was married to Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him), his (peace and blessings be upon him) eyes overflowed with tears, upon which Sayyidah Barakah (may Allah be pleased with her) began to weep and (from intense grief) to pull out her hair. He (peace and blessings be upon him) sternly rebuked her for this, and she said: O Messenger of Allah! Are you weeping too, while we are (commanded) to remain silent? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "This (weeping) which you have seen from me is mercy (for the girl), and I am only a human being. Indeed, the believer is in a state of good from Allah Almighty in every condition, whether it is a state of hardship or of ease."
