حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ حَدَّثَنَا هَمَّامٌ حَدَّثَنَا قَتَادَةُ عَنْ أَبِي قِلَابَةَ عَنْ أَبِي
أَنَّهُ دَخَلَ عَلَى أَبِي ذَرٍّ وَهُوَ بِالرَّبَذَةِ، وَعِنْدَهُ امْرَأَةٌ لَهُ سَوْدَاءُ مُشْبَعَةً، لَيْسَ عَلَيْهَا أَثَرُ الْمَجَاسِدِ وَلَا الْخَلُوقِ. قَالَ: فَقَالَ: أَلَا تَنْظُرُونَ إِلَى مَا تَأْمُرُنِي بِهِ هَذِهِ السُّوَيْدَاءُ؟! تَأْمُرُنِي أَنْ آتِيَ الْعِرَاقَ، فَإِذَا أَتَيْتُ الْعِرَاقَ مَالُوا عَلَيَّ بِدُنْيَاهُمْ، وَإِنَّ خَلِيلِي ﷺ عَهِدَ إِلَيَّ أَنَّ دُونَ جِسْرِ جَهَنَّمَ طَرِيقًا ذَا دَحْضٍ وَمَزَلَّةٍ، وَإِنَّا [أَنْ] نَأْتِيَ عَلَيْهِ، وَفِي أَحْمَالِنَا اقْتِدَارٌ. وَحَدَّثَ مَطَرٌ أَيْضًا بِالْحَدِيثِ أَجْمَعَ فِي قَوْلِ أَحَدِهِمَا: أَنْ نَأْتِيَ عَلَيْهِ وَفِي أَحْمَالِنَا اقْتِدَارٌ. وَقَالَ الْآخَرَانِ: نَأْتِيَ عَلَيْهِ وَفِي أَحْمَالِنَا اضْطِمَّارٌ أَحْرَى أَنْ نَنْجُوَ مِنْ أَنْ نَأْتِيَ عَلَيْهِ وَنَحْنُ مَوَاقِيرُ

✧ He entered upon Abū Dharr while he was at al-Rabadhah, and with him was a black wife of his, plump, with no trace of fine clothes or perfume. He said: Will you not look at what this little black woman commands me to do? She commands me to go to Iraq, but if I go to Iraq they will incline to me with their worldly goods. My beloved ﷺ entrusted to me that before the bridge of Hell there is a path with slippery and stumbling places, and that we [should] come upon it while our loads are manageable. Maṭar also narrated the whole hadith with one of them saying: that we come upon it while our loads are manageable, and the other two said: that we come upon it while our loads are light, which is more likely for us to be saved than to come upon it while we are heavily burdened.
