Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: "We went out with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) to a funeral, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) sat down by a grave and said: 'Not a day passes over this grave without it calling out in a clear, flowing voice: O son of Adam, how could you forget me? Do you not know that I am the house of loneliness, the house of estrangement, the house of desolation, the house of worms and the house of narrowness, except for the one for whom Allah makes me spacious?'
Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'The grave is one of the gardens of Paradise or one of the pits of Hell.'"
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "No one narrated this hadith from al-Awza'i except Ayyub bin Suwayd, and his son is alone in narrating it."
