أَخْبَرَنَا النَّضْرُ بْنُ شُمَيْلِ، نا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ، عَنْ يُونُسَ بْنِ يُوسُفَ، نا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ يَسَارٍ، قَالَ: تَفَرَّقَ النَّاسُ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، فَقَالَ لَهُ: نَأْتِلٌ أَخُو أَهْلِ الشَّامِ: حَدِّثْنَا حَدِيثًا سَمِعْتَهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: " أَوَّلُ النَّاسِ يُقْضَى فِيهِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ ثَلَاثَةٌ: رَجُلٌ اسْتُشْهِدَ، فَأَتَى اللَّهُ بِهِ فَعَرَّفَهُ نِعَمَهُ فَعَرَفَهَا، فَقَالَ لَهُ: فَمَا عَمِلْتَ فِيهَا؟ قَالَ: قَاتَلْتُ فِي سَبِيلِكَ حَتَّى اسْتُشْهِدْتُ، فَقَالَ: كَذَبْتَ، وَلَكِنْ قَاتَلْتَ لِيُقَالَ: هُوَ جَرِيءٌ، فَقَدْ قِيلَ ذَاكَ، ثُمَّ أُمِرَ فَيُسْحَبُ عَلَى وَجْهِهِ إِلَى النَّارِ، وَأَتَى اللَّهُ بِرَجُلٍ قَدْ تَعَلَّمَ الْعِلْمَ وَعَلَّمَهُ وَقَدْ قَرَأَ الْقُرْآنَ، فَعَرَّفَهُ نِعَمَهُ فَعَرَفَهَا فَقَالَ لَهُ: مَا عَمِلْتَ فِيهَا؟ فَقَالَ: تَعَلَّمْتُ الْقُرْآنَ وَعَلَّمْتُهُ فِيكَ، وَقَرَأْتُ الْقُرْآنَ، فَقَالَ: كَذَبْتَ وَلَكِنَّكَ تَعَلَّمْتَ؛ لِيُقَالَ: فُلَانٌ عَالِمٌ، وَفُلَانٌ قَارِئٌ، فَقَدْ قِيلَ ذَاكَ، ثُمَّ أُمِرَ فَيُسْحَبُ بِهِ عَلَى وَجْهِهِ إِلَى النَّارِ، وَأَتَى بِرَجُلٍ قَدْ أَعْطَاهُ اللَّهُ مِنْ أَنْوَاعِ الْمَالِ كُلِّهِ فَعَرَّفَهُ نِعَمَهُ فِيهَا فَعَرَفَهَا، قَالَ: فَمَا عَمِلْتَ فِيهَا؟ فَقَالَ: مَا تَرَكْتُ شَيْئًا مِنْ سَبِيلٍ تُحِبُّ أَنْ يُنْفَقَ فِيهَا إِلَّا أَنْفَقْتُ فِيْهَا، فَقَالَ: كَذَبْتَ وَلَكِنَّكَ أَرَدْتَ أَنْ يُقَالَ: هُوَ جَوَادٌ، فَقَدْ قِيلَ ذَاكَ، ثُمَّ أُمِرَ بِهِ فَيُسْحَبُ بِهِ عَلَى وَجْهِهِ إِلَى النَّارِ ".
Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "On the Day of Resurrection, the first three people about whom judgment will be passed will be: a martyr, he will be brought before Allah, He will remind him of His blessings, and he will recognize them. He (Allah) will say: What did you do about them? He will say: I fought in Your cause until I was martyred. He (Allah) will say: You have lied, you fought so that it would be said: He is brave, and so it was said. Then He will command regarding him, and he will be dragged on his face and thrown into the Fire. Another man will be brought who acquired knowledge and taught it, and recited the Qur'an. He will remind him of His blessings, and he will recognize them. He (Allah) will say: What did you do about them? He will say: I acquired knowledge, taught it for Your sake, and recited the Qur'an. He (Allah) will say: You have lied, you acquired knowledge so that it would be said: So-and-so is a scholar, so-and-so is a reciter, and so it was said. Then He will command regarding him, and he will be dragged on his face and thrown into the Fire. Then a man will be brought to whom Allah had given all kinds of wealth. He will remind him of His blessings, and he will recognize them. He (Allah) will say: What did you do about them? He will say: I did not leave any path or place where You like spending, except that I spent there. He (Allah) will say: You have lied, you did so that it would be said: He is generous, and so it was said. Then He will command regarding him, and he will be dragged on his face and thrown into the Fire."
