حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عِيسَى، ثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ، ثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ الْحَارِثِ، أَنَّ أَبَا السَّمْحِ أَخْبَرَهُ، عَنِ ابْنِ حُجَيْرَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ، قَالَ:
الْمُؤْمِنُ فِي قَبْرِهِ فِي رَوْضَةٍ، وَيُرَحَّبُ لَهُ فِي قَبْرِهِ سَبْعُونَ ذِرَاعًا، وَيُنَوَّرُ لَهُ كَالْقَمَرِ لَيْلَةَ الْبَدْرِ، أَتَدْرُونَ فِيمَا أُنْزِلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ: فَإِنَّ لَهُ مَعِيشَةً ضَنْكًا وَنَحْشُرُهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ أَعْمَى ؟ قَالُوا: اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ، قَالَ: عَذَابُ الْكَافِرِ فِي قَبْرِهِ، وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ، إِنَّهُ لَيُسَلَّطُ عَلَيْهِ تِسْعَةٌ وَتِسْعُونَ تِنِّينًا، أَتَدْرُونَ مَا التِّنِّينُ ؟ قَالَ: تِسْعَةٌ وَتِسْعُونَ حَيَّةً، لِكُلِّ حَيَّةٍ سَبْعَةُ رُؤُوسٍ، يَنْفُخُونَ فِي جِسْمِهِ، وَيَلْسَعُونَهُ، وَيَخْدِشُونَهُ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ

✧ The believer in his grave is in a garden, and his grave is widened for him by seventy cubits, and it is illuminated for him like the moon on the night of the full moon. Do you know about what this verse was revealed: 'Then for him is a straitened livelihood, and We will raise him on the Day of Resurrection blind'? They said: Allah and His Messenger know best. He said: The punishment of the disbeliever in his grave. By the One in whose hand is my soul, ninety-nine dragons are set upon him. Do you know what the dragon is? He said: Ninety-nine serpents, each serpent has seven heads, they blow into his body, sting him, and scratch him until the Day of Resurrection.
