أَخْبَرَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ عَامِرٍ عَنْ شُعْبَةَ عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مُرَّةَ عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ قَالَ

سَأَلْنَا عَبْدَ اللَّهِ عَنْ أَرْوَاحُ الشُّهَدَاءِ وَلَوْلَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ لَمْ يُحَدِّثْنَا أَحَدٌ قَالَ أَرْوَاحُ الشُّهَدَاءِ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ فِي حَوَاصِلِ طَيْرٍ خُضْرٍ لَهَا قَنَادِيلُ مُعَلَّقَةٌ بِالْعَرْشِ تَسْرَحُ فِي أَيِّ الْجَنَّةِ شَاءُوا ثُمَّ تَرْجِعُ إِلَى قَنَادِيلِهَا فَيُشْرِفُ عَلَيْهِمْ رَبُّهُمْ فَيَقُولُ أَلَكُمْ حَاجَةٌ؟ تُرِيدُونَ شَيْئًا؟ فَيَقُولُونَ لَا إِلَّا أَنْ نَرْجِعَ إِلَى الدُّنْيَا فَنُقْتَلَ مَرَّةً أُخْرَى

✧ "Regarding the souls of the martyrs, if it were not for Abdullah, no one would have informed us. He said that the souls of the martyrs are with Allah on the Day of Judgment in the bodies of green birds, with lanterns hanging from the throne, freely roaming in the gardens of paradise as they please. Then they return to their lanterns, and their Lord honors them and asks, 'Do you have any need? Is there anything you desire?' They respond, 'No, except that we want to return to the world and be killed again.'"
