Hadith 20
- (كانَ رجلٌ ممَّن كان قبلكم لم يعمل خيراً قطُّ؛ إلا التوحيد، فلما احتُضر قال لأهله: انظروا: إذا أنا متُّ أن يحرِّقوه حتى يدعوه حمماً، ثم اطحنوه، ثم اذروه في يوم ريح، [ثم اذروا نصفه في البر، ونصفه في البحر، فوالله؛ لئن قدر الله عليه ليعذبنه عذاباً لا يعذبه أحداً من العالمين] ، فلما مات فعلوا ذلك به، [فأمر الله البر فجمع ما فيه، وأمر البحر فجمع ما فيه] ، فإذا هو [قائم] في قبضة الله، فقال الله عز وجل: يا ابن آدم! ما حملك على ما فعلت؟ قال: أي ربِّ! من مخافتك (وفي طريق آخر: من خشيتك وأنت أعلم) ، قال: فغفر له بها، ولم يعمل خيراً قطُّ إلا التوحيد) .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "There was a man among those before you who had not done any good deed except for Tawheed (belief in the Oneness of Allah). When his time of death approached, he said to his family: Listen carefully: If I die, burn me and make me into coal, then crush me and scatter half of me in the air on land and half in the sea. If Allah the Exalted is able to get hold of me, He will punish me with a torment that He has not inflicted on anyone in the worlds. When he died, they did as he had instructed. Meanwhile, Allah the Exalted commanded the land, and it gathered his particles, and He commanded the sea, and it gathered his parts as well. Suddenly (he was given existence and) he was seen standing in the grasp of Allah the Exalted. Allah the Exalted asked: O son of Adam! What made you do what you did? He said: O my Lord! (I did all this) out of fear of You, and You know best. Allah the Exalted forgave him because of his fear, even though he had no good deed except for Tawheed."
