أَخْبَرَنَا ) عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ عَبْدَانَ، أَنْبَأَ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ الصَّفَّارُ، ثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْفَضْلِ بْنِ جَابِرٍ، ثَنَا شَيْبَانُ، ثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى، عَنْ عَطَاءٍ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ قَالَ:

خَرَجَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ بِعَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَوْفٍ ؓ إِلَى النَّخْلِ، فَإِذَا ابْنُهُ إِبْرَاهِيمُ يَجُودُ بِنَفْسِهِ، فَوَضَعَهُ فِي حِجْرِهِ فَفَاضَتْ عَيْنَاهُ، فَقَالَ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَوْفٍ: أَتَبْكِي وَأَنْتَ تَنْهَى النَّاسَ ؟ قَالَ: إِنِّي لَمْ أَنْهَ عَنِ الْبُكَاءِ، إِنَّمَا نَهَيْتُ عَنِ النَّوْحِ، صَوْتَيْنِ أَحْمَقَيْنِ فَاجِرَيْنِ: صَوْتٌ عِنْدَ نَغْمَةِ لَهْوٍ وَلَعِبٍ وَمَزَامِيرِ شَيْطَانٍ، وَصَوْتٌ عِنْدَ مُصِيبَةٍ خَمْشُ وُجُوهٍ، وَشَقُّ جُيُوبٍ، وَرَنَّةٌ، وَهَذَا هُوَ رَحْمَةٌ، وَمَنْ لَا يَرْحَمْ لَا يُرْحَمْ، يَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ لَوْلَا أَنَّهُ أَمْرُ حَقٍّ وَوَعْدُ صِدْقٍ، وَأَنَّ آخِرَنَا سَيَلْحَقُ بِأَوَّلِنَا لَحَزِنَّا عَلَيْكَ حُزْنًا هُوَ أَشَدُّ مِنْ هَذَا، وَإِنَّا بِكَ لَمَحْزُونُونَ، تَبْكِي الْعَيْنُ وَيَحْزَنُ الْقَلْبُ وَلَا نَقُولُ مَا يُسْخِطُ الرَّبَّ

The Prophet ﷺ went out with ʿAbd al-Raḥmān b. ʿAwf (may God be pleased with him) to the palm grove, and there was his son Ibrāhīm breathing his last. He placed him in his lap and his eyes overflowed with tears. ʿAbd al-Raḥmān b. ʿAwf said: "Do you weep, while you forbid the people?" He said: "I did not forbid weeping; I only forbade wailing, which is two foolish, wicked sounds: a sound at the tune of amusement, play and the pipes of Satan, and a sound at a calamity, with the scratching of faces, the tearing of garment openings, and shrieking. But this is mercy, and whoever does not show mercy will not be shown mercy. O Ibrāhīm, were it not that this is a certain matter and a true promise, and that the last of us will join the first of us, we would grieve for you with a grief even greater than this. Indeed we are grieved for you. The eye weeps and the heart grieves, and we do not say anything that angers the Lord."
