Al-Mu'jam al-Awsat 4644 — the Prophet ﷺ was asked about the people

حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ خُنَيْسٍ الدِّمْيَاطِيُّ قَالَ : نَا أَبُو أَسْلَمَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مَخْلَدٍ الرُّعَيْنِيُّ الْحِمْصِيُّ قَالَ : نَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ قَالَ : سُئِلَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ أَصْحَابِ الْأَعْرَافِ ، فَقَالَ : هُمْ رِجَالٌ قُتِلُوا فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ ، وَهُمْ عُصَاةٌ لِآبَائِهِمْ ، فَمَنَعَتْهُمُ الشَّهَادَةُ أَنْ يَدْخُلُوا النَّارَ ، وَمَنَعَتْهُمُ الْمَعْصِيَةُ أَنْ يَدْخُلُوا الْجَنَّةَ ، فَهُمْ عَلَى سُورٍ بَيْنَ الْجَنَّةِ وَالنَّارِ حَتَّى تَذْبُلَ لُحُومُهُمْ وَشُحُومُهُمْ حَتَّى يَفْرُغَ اللهُ مِنْ حِسَابِ الْخَلَائِقِ ، فَإِذَا فَرَغَ اللهُ مِنْ حِسَابِ خَلْقِهِ ، فَلَمْ يَبْقَ غَيْرُهُمْ تَغَمَّدَهُمُ اللهُ بِرَحْمَتِهِ ، فَأَدْخَلَهُمُ الْجَنَّةَ بِرَحْمَتِهِ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id al-Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was asked about the people of al-A'raf, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "They are men who were killed in the path of Allah while they were disobedient to their parents. Their martyrdom kept them from entering the Fire, and their disobedience kept them from entering Paradise. So they will be upon a wall between Paradise and Hell until their flesh and fat melt away, until Allah Almighty finishes the reckoning of all creatures. Then, when Allah has finished the reckoning of His creation and none remain but them, Allah will cover them with His mercy and admit them into Paradise by His mercy."
