وَقَالَ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ : حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ سَوَّارٍ أَبُو الْعَلَاءِ ، حَدَّثَنَا لَيْثُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ ، عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ صَالِحٍ قَالَ : إِنَّ أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْأَزْدِيَّ حَدَّثَهُ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ ابْنَ عَائِذٍ ، يَقُولُ : خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فِي جِنَازَةِ رَجُلٍ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ ، فَلَمَّا وُضِعَ قَالَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ - رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ - : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، لَا تُصَلِّ عَلَيْهِ ، فَإِنَّهُ رَجُلٌ فَاجِرٌ ، فَالْتَفَتَ رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَقَالَ : هَلْ رَآهُ أَحَدٌ مِنْكُمْ عَلَى شَيْءٍ مِنْ عَمَلِ الْإِسْلَامِ ؟ فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ : نَعَمْ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، حَرَسَ مَعَنَا لَيْلَةً فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ تَعَالَى ، فَصَلَّى عَلَيْهِ ، وَحَثَا عَلَيْهِ التُّرَابَ ، وَقَالَ : أَصْحَابُكَ يَظُنُّونَ أَنَّكَ مِنْ أَهْلِ النَّارِ ، وَأَنَا أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ ، ثُمَّ قَالَ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : يَا عُمَرُ إِنَّكَ لَا تُسْأَلُ عَنْ أَعْمَالِ النَّاسِ ، وَلَكِنْ تُسْأَلُونَ عَنِ الصَّلَاةِ .
Ibn A'idh relates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) went to the funeral of a man of the Ansar. When the bier was set down, Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "O Messenger of Allah, do not offer the funeral prayer over him, for he was a wicked man." The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) turned to the people and said: "Has any of you seen him doing any deed of Islam?" A man said: "Yes, O Messenger of Allah; he kept guard with us for one night in the path of Allah Almighty." So he (peace and blessings be upon him) offered the funeral prayer over him, threw earth upon him, and said: "Your companions think that you are among the people of Hell, while I testify that you are among the people of Paradise." Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Umar, you will not be asked about people's deeds; rather, you people will be asked about the prayer."
