Hadith 25079

حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْجَبَّارِ بْنُ وَرْدِ ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ، قَالَ : ذُكِرَ لَهَا : أَنَّ الْمَيِّتَ يُعَذَّبُ بِبُكَاءِ الْحَيِّ ، فَقَالَتْ : إِنَّمَا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي رَجُلٍ كَافِرٍ : " إِنَّهُ لَيُعَذَّبُ وَأَهْلُهُ يَبْكُونَ عَلَيْهِ " .
Someone mentioned to Hazrat Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that the deceased is punished because of the weeping of his family over him. So Hazrat Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) said that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said this regarding a disbeliever, that at that time he is being punished and his family is weeping over him.
