حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ بْنُ غِيَاثٍ، قَالَ: نَا عَدِيُّ بْنُ الْفَضْلِ قَالَ: نَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ أُمَيَّةَ، عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، وَقَالَ غَيْرُهُ: عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ؓ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ:
لَمَّا أُصِيبَ إِخْوَانُكُمْ جَعَلَ اللهُ أَرْوَاحَهُمْ فِي جَوْفِ طَيْرٍ خُضْرٍ تَرِدُ أَنْهَارَ الْجَنَّةِ وَتَأْكُلُ مِنْ ثِمَارِهَا وَتَأْوِي إِلَى قَنَادِيلَ مُعَلَّقَةٍ فِي ظِلِّ الْعَرْشِ، فَلَمَّا وَجَدُوا طِيبَ مَطْعَمِهِمْ وَمَشْرَبِهِمْ قَالُوا لَوْ يَعْلَمُونَ بِمَا أَكْرَمَنَا، قَالَ اللهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى: أَنَا مُعْلِمُهُمْ عَنْكُمْ فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ: وَلا تَحْسَبَنَّ الَّذِينَ قُتِلُوا فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ أَمْوَاتًا بَلْ أَحْيَاءٌ عِنْدَ رَبِّهِمْ يُرْزَقُونَ فَرِحِينَ بِمَا آتَاهُمُ اللهُ مِنْ فَضْلِهِ وَيَسْتَبْشِرُونَ بِالَّذِينَ لَمْ يَلْحَقُوا بِهِمْ مِنْ خَلْفِهِمْ أَلا خَوْفٌ عَلَيْهِمْ وَلا هُمْ يَحْزَنُونَ

✧ When your brothers were killed, Allah placed their souls in the insides of green birds that come to the rivers of Paradise, eat from its fruits, and take shelter in lanterns hanging in the shade of the Throne. When they found the goodness of their food and drink, they said: 'If only they knew what honor Allah has bestowed upon us.' Allah, blessed and exalted, said: 'I shall inform them about you.' So Allah revealed: 'And never think of those who have been killed in the cause of Allah as dead. Rather, they are alive with their Lord, receiving provision, rejoicing in what Allah has bestowed upon them of His bounty, and they receive good tidings about those who have not yet joined them from behind them, that there will be no fear concerning them, nor will they grieve.'
