عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، عَنِ الثَّوْرِيِّ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مُرَّةَ، عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ قَالَ:
سَأَلْنَا عَبْدَ اللهِ عَنْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةِ: ﴿وَلا تَحْسَبَنَّ الَّذِينَ قُتِلُوا فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ ﴾إِلَى ﴿يُرْزَقُونَ ﴾قَالَ: " أَرْوَاحُ الشُّهَدَاءِ عِنْدَ اللهِ كَطَيْرٍ لَهَا قَنَادِيلُ مُعَلَّقَةٌ بِالْعَرْشِ، تَسْرَحُ فِي الْجَنَّةِ حَيْثُ شَاءَتْ، قَالَ: فَاطَّلَعَ إِلَيْهِمْ رَبُّكَ اطِّلَاعَةً، فَقَالَ: هَلْ تَشْتَهُونَ مِنْ شَيْءٍ فَأَزِيدُكُمُوهُ ؟ فَقَالُوا: رَبَّنَا أَلَسْنَا نَسْرَحُ فِي الْجَنَّةِ فِي أَيِّهَا شِئْنَا، ثُمَّ اطَّلَعَ عَلَيْهِمُ الثَّالِثَةَ فَقَالَ: هَلْ تَشْتَهُونَ مِنْ شَيْءٍ فَأَزِيدُكُمُوهُ ؟ قَالُوا: تُعِيدُ أَرْوَاحَنَا فِي أَجْسَادِنَا فَنُقَاتِلُ فِي سَبِيلِكَ، فَنُقْتَلُ مَرَّةً أُخْرَى، قَالَ: فَسَكَتَ عَنْهُمْ
Translation
✧ We asked Abdullah about this verse: 'And do not reckon those who were killed in the path of Allah' up to 'they are provided for.' He said: 'The souls of the martyrs are with Allah like birds that have lanterns suspended at the Throne, roaming in Paradise wherever they wish. He said: Then your Lord looked upon them with a glance and said: Do you desire anything so that I may increase you? They said: Our Lord, do we not roam in Paradise wherever we wish? Then He looked upon them a third time and said: Do you desire anything so that I may increase you? They said: Return our souls to our bodies so that we may fight in Your path and be killed once again. He said: So He fell silent regarding them.'
