Hadith 557

أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الْمَجِيدِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي ابْنُ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ، قَالَ: تُوُفِّيَتِ ابْنَةٌ لِعُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَفَّانَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ بِمَكَّةَ، فَجِئْنَا نَشْهَدُهَا، وَحَضَرَهَا ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ وَابْنُ عُمَرَ، فَقَالَ: إِنِّي جَالِسٌ بَيْنَهُمَا جَلَسْتُ إِلَى أَحَدِهِمَا ثُمَّ جَاءَ الْآخَرُ [ ص: 78 ] فَجَلَسَ إِلَيَّ، فَقَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ لِعَمْرِو بْنِ عُثْمَانَ: أَلَا تَنْهَى عَنِ الْبُكَاءِ؟ فَإِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: "إِنَّ الْمَيِّتَ لَيُعَذَّبُ بِبُكَاءِ أَهْلِهِ عَلَيْهِ" ، فَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ: قَدْ كَانَ عُمَرُ يَقُولُ بَعْضَ ذَلِكَ ثُمَّ حَدَّثَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ، فَقَالَ: صَدَرْتُ مَعَ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ مَنْ مَكَّةَ حَتَّى إِذَا كُنَّا بِالْبَيْدَاءِ إِذَا بِرَكْبٍ تَحْتَ ظِلِّ شَجَرَةٍ، قَالَ: فَاذْهَبْ فَانْظُرْ مَنْ هَؤُلَاءِ الرَّكْبِ؟ فَذَهَبْتُ فَإِذَا صُهَيْبٌ. قَالَ: ادْعُهُ فَرَجَعْتُ إِلَى صُهَيْبٍ، فَقُلْتُ: ارْتَحِلْ فَالْحَقْ بِأَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ، فَلَمَّا أُصِيبَ عُمَرُ سَمِعْتُ صُهَيْبًا يَبْكِي وَيَقُولُ: وَا أُخَيَّاهُ وَا صَاحِبَاهُ، فَقَالَ عُمَرُ: يَا صُهَيْبُ أَتَبْكِي عَلَيَّ؟ وَقَدْ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: "إِنَّ الْمَيِّتَ لَيَعُذَّبُ بِبُكَاءِ أَهْلِهِ عَلَيْهِ" . قَالَ: فَلَمَّا مَاتَ عُمَرُ ذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لِعَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا، فَقَالَتْ: يَرْحَمُ اللَّهُ عُمَرَ، لَا وَاللَّهِ مَا حَدَّثَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: إِنَّ الْمَيِّتَ لَيُعَذَّبُ بِبُكَاءِ أَهْلِهِ عَلَيْهِ، وَلَكِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: "إِنَّ اللَّهَ يَزِيدُ الْكَافِرَ عَذَابًا بِبُكَاءِ أَهْلِهِ عَلَيْهِ" فَقَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا: حَسْبُكُمُ الْقُرْآنُ وَلا تَزِرُ وَازِرَةٌ وِزْرَ أُخْرَى [الْأَنْعَامِ: 164] . وَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا عِنْدَ ذَلِكَ: "وَاللَّهُ أَضْحَكَ وَأَبْكَى" . قَالَ: ابْنُ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ: فَوَاللَّهِ مَا قَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ مِنْ شَيْءٍ. أَخْرَجَ الْأَوَّلَ مِنْ كِتَابِ الْجَنَائِزِ وَالثَّانِيَ وَالثَّالِثَ مِنَ الْجُزْءِ الثَّانِي مِنَ اخْتِلَافِ الْحَدِيثِ.
Ibn Abi Mulaykah narrates that when the daughter of Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) passed away in Makkah, we came to attend her funeral. Ibn Umar and Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) also arrived. He said: I was sitting between the two of them. It happened that I sat next to one of them, then the other came and sat with me. Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said to Amr bin Uthman: Do you not forbid them from weeping? Because the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "The deceased is punished because of the weeping of his family over him." Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) also used to say this, that (the deceased is punished) because of the weeping of some of the family (i.e., you did not mention the word 'some'), then he narrated the hadith and said: I was returning from Makkah with Umar bin Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) until when we reached Baida, we saw some riders under the shade of a tree. Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Go and see who these riders are. I went and saw that it was Suhayb (may Allah be pleased with him). I informed Umar (may Allah be pleased with him), so he said: Go and call him. Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) says: I said, Come, the Commander of the Faithful is calling you. Then, when Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) was wounded (at the time of his martyrdom), I heard him weeping and saying, Alas, my brother! Alas, my companion! So Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: O Suhayb! Are you weeping over me? While the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "The deceased is punished because of the weeping of his family over him." Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) says: After the martyrdom of Umar (may Allah be pleased with him), I mentioned this to Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), so she said: May Allah have mercy on Umar (may Allah be pleased with him), by Allah, the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) did not say that the deceased is punished because of the weeping of his family over him. Rather, the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "Allah increases the punishment of the disbeliever because of the weeping of his family over him." Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) said: The Qur'an is sufficient for you: "No bearer of burdens will bear the burden of another." (__QUR_N__: Fatir: 18) Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) gave this evidence: "And it is Allah who makes [one] laugh and weep." (__QUR_N__: An-Najm: 43) Ibn Abi Mulaykah said: By Allah, after hearing this, Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) did not reply.
