Hadith 2421

حَدَّثَنَا سُوَيْدُ بْنُ نَصْرٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ يَزِيدَ بْنِ جَابِرٍ، حَدَّثَنِي سُلَيْمُ بْنُ عَامِرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا الْمِقْدَادُ صَاحِبُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ : " إِذَا كَانَ يَوْمُ الْقِيَامَةِ أُدْنِيَتِ الشَّمْسُ مِنَ الْعِبَادِ حَتَّى تَكُونَ قِيدَ مِيلٍ أَوِ اثْنَيْنِ " ، قَالَ سُلَيْمٌ : لَا أَدْرِي أَيَّ الْمِيلَيْنِ عَنَى ، أَمَسَافَة الْأَرْضِ ، أَمِ الْمِيلُ الَّذِي تُكْتَحَلُ بِهِ الْعَيْنُ ، قَالَ : " فَتَصْهَرُهُمُ الشَّمْسُ فَيَكُونُونَ فِي الْعَرَقِ بِقَدْرِ أَعْمَالِهِمْ ، فَمِنْهُمْ مَنْ يَأْخُذُهُ إِلَى عَقِبَيْهِ ، وَمِنْهُمْ مَنْ يَأْخُذُهُ إِلَى رُكْبَتَيْهِ ، وَمِنْهُمْ مَنْ يَأْخُذُهُ إِلَى حِقْوَيْهِ ، وَمِنْهُمْ مَنْ يُلْجِمُهُ إِلْجَامًا ، فَرَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُشِيرُ بِيَدِهِ إِلَى فِيهِ أَيْ يُلْجِمُهُ إِلْجَامًا " , قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى : هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ ، وفي الباب عن أَبِي سَعِيدٍ وَابْنِ عُمَرَ .
´Sulaim bin 'Amir narrated from Al-Miqdad, a Companion of the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) who said:` "I heard the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) saying: 'On the Day of Judgement, the sun will be drawn near the servants, until it has come a mile or two (away).'" Sulaim bin 'Amir said: " I do not know if it is miles that refer to distance on the land, or Al-Mil which is used to apply Kuhl for the eyes." He (the Prophet (s.a.w)): "The sun will melt them, until they will be in sweat according to their deeds. Among them one will be covered up to his ankles, and among them will be one who is covered up to his knees, and among them will be one who is covered up to his waist, and among them will be one who is bridled with it.' I saw the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) indicating with his hand toward his mouth, meaning that one would be bridled with it.'" [Abu 'Eisa said:] This Hadith is Hasan Sahih. There are narrations on this topic from Abu Sa'eed and Ibn 'Umar.

Explanation:
1:
According to scientific research, the sun is at a distance of ninety million miles from the earth.
On the Day of Resurrection, when it will be only one mile away, what will be the state of its heat? Who other than Allah can know this better?
As for the condition of man, he will be in sweat.
May Allah have mercy upon us, ameen.

Hadith Commentary:
Benefits and Issues:
The true and real nature of the events and scenes that will occur on the Day of Resurrection cannot be fully comprehended in this world. Complete disclosure will only take place when a person is confronted with the realities and these scenes appear before his eyes, because matters of the Hereafter cannot be analogized to those of this world.
