حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ إِدْرِيسَ الْأَوْدِيُّ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ أُمَيَّةَ، عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ:
لَمَّا أُصِيبَ إِخْوَانُكُمْ بِأُحُدٍ جَعَلَ اللهُ أَرْوَاحَهُمْ فِي أَجْوَافِ طَيْرٍ خُضْرٍ، تَرِدُ أَنْهَارَ الْجَنَّةِ وَتَأْكُلُ مِنْ ثِمَارِهَا، وَتَأْوِي إِلَى قَنَادِيلَ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ مُعَلَّقَةٍ فِي ظِلِّ الْعَرْشِ، فَلَمَّا وَجَدُوا طِيبَ مَأْكَلِهِمْ وَمَشْرَبِهِمْ وَمَقِيلِهِمْ، قَالُوا: مَنْ يُبَلِّغُ إِخْوَانَنَا عَنَّا أَنَّا أَحْيَاءٌ فِي الْجَنَّةِ نُرْزَقُ لِئَلَّا يَنْكُلُوا عِنْدَ الْحَرْبِ، وَلَا يَزْهَدُوا فِي الْجِهَادِ ؟ قَالَ: فَقَالَ اللهُ: أَنَا أُبَلِّغُهُمْ عَنْكُمْ، فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى: وَلا تَحْسَبَنَّ الَّذِينَ قُتِلُوا فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ أَمْوَاتًا بَلْ أَحْيَاءٌ عِنْدَ رَبِّهِمْ... الْآيَةَ

✧ When your brothers were struck at Uhud, God placed their souls in the crops of green birds that frequent the rivers of the Garden and eat from its fruits and shelter in golden lamps suspended in the shade of the Throne. When they found the goodness of their food, drink, and resting place, they said: 'Who will convey to our brothers about us that we are alive in the Garden, provided for, so that they do not hold back in war and do not renounce striving?' He said: Then God said: 'I will convey to them about you.' So God, blessed and exalted, sent down: 'And do not reckon those who were killed in God's way as dead; rather, they are alive with their Lord...' the verse.
