Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 12436 — The soul of the believer and

Muhammad (the narrator) said: Abu Salamah said: Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: If he was a disbeliever, he is approached from the side of his head, and nothing (of good) is found for him. Then he is approached from his right, and nothing is found for him. Then he is approached from his left, and nothing is found for him. Then he is approached from the side of his feet, and nothing is found for him. Then it is said to him: "Sit up," and he sits up, alarmed and terrified. It is said to him: "Tell us about what we ask you." He says: "What are you asking me about?" It is said: "This man who was among you, what do you say about him, and what do you testify about him?" He says: "Which man?" It is said: "The one who was among you." But he cannot find his way to his name. It is said: "Muhammad." He says: "I do not know; I heard the people saying something, so I said as they said." It is said: "Upon this you lived, upon this you died, and upon this you will be resurrected, if Allah wills." Then a door to the Fire is opened for him and it is said to him: "That is your abode and what Allah has prepared for you in it," and his regret and ruin increase. Then a door to Paradise is opened for him and it is said to him: "That would have been your abode in it," and his regret and ruin increase. Then his grave is made so narrow for him that his ribs interlock. That is the life of hardship of which Allah Almighty said: "Indeed, for him is a life of hardship, and We will raise him blind on the Day of Resurrection" [Ta-Ha: 124].
