Hadith 1064

حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ بْنِ أَسْبَاطِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ الْقُرَشِيُّ الْكُوفِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو سِنَانٍ الشَّيْبَانِيُّ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاق السَّبِيعِيِّ، قَالَ : قَالَ سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ صُرَدٍ لِخَالِدِ بْنِ عُرْفُطَةَ، أَوْ خَالِدٌ لِسُلَيْمَانَ : أَمَا سَمِعْتَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، يَقُولُ : " مَنْ قَتَلَهُ بَطْنُهُ لَمْ يُعَذَّبْ فِي قَبْرِهِ " . فَقَالَ أَحَدُهُمَا لِصَاحِبِهِ : نَعَمْ . قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى : هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ فِي هَذَا الْبَابِ ، وَقَدْ رُوِيَ مِنْ غَيْرِ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ .
´Abu Ishaq As-Sabi'i said:` "Sulaiman bin Surad said to Khalid bin Urfutah - or, Khalid said to Sulaiman - 'Did you hear the Messenger of Allah saying: "Whoever is killed by his stomach then he will not be punished in the grave"?' One of them said to the other: "Yes."

Hafiz Muhammad Ameen
Commentary in English:
By “abdominal pain” is meant any type of illness related to the abdomen, such as: diarrhea, cholera, or intestinal cancer, etc. Accidental death has been described as martyrdom (shahadah), and death due to abdominal illness has been stated as a protection from the punishment of the grave. Since these types of deaths generally cause greater shock and suffering, their reward and recompense is also greater. Some have interpreted “abdominal pain” as referring to the disease of dropsy (istisqa’), in which the patient experiences extreme thirst. He drinks plenty of water but does not feel satiated; as a result, the abdomen becomes swollen and deteriorates. Eventually, the patient is taken to Allah. May Allah protect us from severe illnesses and an evil death.
