وَقَالَ أَبُو يَعْلَى: حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الدَّوْرَقِيُّ، ثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَكْرٍ الْبُرْسَانِيُّ، قَالَ: قَالَ أَبُو عَاصِمٍ الْحَبَطِيُّ، وَكَانَ مِنْ خِيَارِ أَهْلِ الْبَصْرَةِ، وَكَانَ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ حَرَمٍ وَسَالِمِ بْنِ أَبِي مُطِيعٍ، قَالَ: ثَنَا بَكْرُ بْنُ خُنَيْسٍ، عَنْ ضِرَارِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، عَنْ يَزِيدَ الرَّقَاشِيِّ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، عَنْ تَمِيمٍ الدَّارِيِّ ؓ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ، قَالَ: يَقُولُ اللهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى لِمَلَكِ الْمَوْتِ:

انْطَلِقْ إِلَى وَلِيِّي، فَأْتِنِي بِهِ، فَإِنِّي قَدْ جَرَّبْتُهُ بِالسَّرَّاءِ وَالضَّرَّاءِ، فَوَجَدْتُهُ حَيْثُ أُحِبُّ، ائْتِنِي بِهِ، فَلَأُرِيحَنَّهُ، قَالَ: فَيَنْطَلِقُ إِلَيْهِ مَلَكُ الْمَوْتِ، وَمَعَهُ خَمْسُمِائَةٍ مِنَ الْمَلَائِكَةِ مَعَهُمْ أَكْفَانٌ وَحَنُوطٌ مِنَ الْجَنَّةِ، وَمَعَهُمْ ضَبَائِرُ الرَّيْحَانِ، أَصْلُ الرَّيْحَانَةِ وَاحِدٌ، وَفِي رَأْسِهَا عِشْرُونَ لَوْنًا، لِكُلِّ لَوْنٍ مِنْهَا رِيحٌ سِوَى رِيحِ صَاحِبِهِ، مَعَهُمُ الْحَرِيرُ الْأَبْيَضُ فِيهِ الْمِسْكُ الْأَذْفَرُ، قَالَ: فَيَجْلِسُ مَلَكُ الْمَوْتِ عِنْدَ رَأْسِهِ، وَتَحُفُّهُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ، وَيَضَعُ كُلٌّ مِنْهُمْ يَدَهُ عَلَى عُضْوٍ مِنْ أَعْضَائِهِ، وَيُبْسَطُ ذَلِكَ الْحَرِيرُ الْأَبْيَضُ وَالْمِسْكُ الْأَذْفَرُ مِنْ تَحْتِ ذَقْنِهِ، وَيُفْتَحُ لَهُ بَابٌ إِلَى الْجَنَّةِ، فَإِنَّ نَفْسَهُ لَتُعَلَّلُ عِنْدَ ذَلِكَ بِطُرَفِ الْجَنَّةِ، مَرَّةً بِأَزْوَاجِهَا، وَمَرَّةً بِكِسْوَتِهَا، وَمَرَّةً بِثِمَارِهَا، كَمَا يُعَلِّلُ الصَّبِيَّ أَهْلُهُ إِذَا بَكَى، وَإِنَّ أَزْوَاجَهُ لَيَنْهَسْنَهُ عِنْدَ ذَلِكَ انْتِهَاسًا، وَقَالَ: وَتَبْرُزُ الرُّوحُ، ( قَالَ الْبُرْسَانِيُّ: يُرِيدُ الْخُرُوجَ سُرْعَةً، لِمَا يَرَى مِمَّا يُحِبُّ )، قَالَ: وَيَقُولُ مَلَكُ الْمَوْتِ: اخْرُجِي أَيَّتُهَا الرُّوحُ الطَّيِّبَةُ إِلَى سِدْرٍ مَخْضُودٍ، وَطَلْحٍ مَنْضُودٍ، وَظِلٍّ مَمْدُودٍ، وَمَاءٍ مَسْكُوبٍ، قَالَ: وَمَلَكُ الْمَوْتِ أَشَدُّ بِهِ لُطْفًا مِنَ الْوَالِدَةِ بِوَلَدِهَا، يَعْرِفُ أَنَّ ذَلِكَ الرُّوحَ حَبِيبٌ إِلَى رَبِّهِ، فَهُوَ يَلْتَمِسُ لُطْفَهُ تَحَبُّبًا لِرَبِّهِ، وَرِضًا لِلرَّبِّ عَنْهُ، فَتُسَلُّ رُوحُهُ كَمَا تُسَلُّ الشَّعَرَةُ مِنَ الْعَجِينِ، قَالَ: وَقَالَ اللهُ تَعَالَى: الَّذِينَ تَتَوَفَّاهُمُ الْمَلائِكَةُ طَيِّبِينَ، وَقَالَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ: فَأَمَّا إِنْ كَانَ مِنَ الْمُقَرَّبِينَ فَرَوْحٌ وَرَيْحَانٌ وَجَنَّتُ نَعِيمٍ، قَالَ: ( رَوْحٌ ) مِنْ جَهْدِ الْمَوْتِ، وَرَيْحَانٌ يُتَلَقَّى بِهِ، ( وَجَنَّةُ نَعِيمٍ ) تُقَابِلُهُ قَالَ: فَإِذَا قَبَضَ مَلَكُ الْمَوْتِ رُوحَهُ، قَالَ الرُّوحُ لِلْجَسَدِ: جَزَاكَ اللهُ عَنِّي خَيْرًا، فَقَدْ كُنْتَ سَرِيعًا بِي إِلَى طَاعَةِ اللهِ تَعَالَى، بَطِيئًا بِي عَنْ مَعْصِيَةِ اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ، فَقَدْ نَجَيْتَ فَأَنْجَيْتَ، قَالَ: وَيَقُولُ الْجَسَدُ لِلرُّوحِ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ، قَالَ: وَتَبْكِي عَلَيْهِ بِقَاعُ الْأَرْضِ الَّتِي كَانَ يُطِيعُ اللهَ تَعَالَى فِيهَا، وَكُلُّ بَابٍ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ يَصْعَدُ مِنْهُ عَمَلُهُ، وَيَنْزِلُ مِنْهُ رِزْقُهُ أَرْبَعِينَ سَنَةً. قَالَ: فَإِذَا قَبَضَ مَلَكُ الْمَوْتِ رُوحَهُ أَقَامَ الْخَمْسُمِائَةِ مِنَ الْمَلَائِكَةِ عِنْدَ جَسَدِهِ، فَلَا يُقَلِّبُهُ بَنُو آدَمَ لِشِقٍّ إِلَّا قَلَّبَتْهُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ قَبْلَهُمْ، وَعَلَتْهُ بِأَكْفَانٍ قَبْلَ أَكْفَانِ بَنِي آدَمَ، وَحَنُوطٍ قَبْلَ حَنُوطِ بَنِي آدَمَ، وَيَقُومُ مِنْ بَابِ بَيْتِهِ إِلَى بَابِ قَبْرِهِ صَفَّانِ مِنَ الْمَلَائِكَةِ، يَسْتَقْبِلُونَهُ بِالِاسْتِغْفَارِ، قَالَ: فَيَصِيحُ عِنْدَ ذَلِكَ إِبْلِيسُ صَيْحَةً يَتَصَدَّعُ مِنْهَا عِظَامُ بَعْضِ جَسَدِهِ، وَيَقُولُ لِجُنُودِهِ: الْوَيْلُ لَكُمْ كَيْفَ خَلَصَ هَذَا الْعَبْدُ مِنْكُمْ ؟ قَالَ: فَيَقُولُونَ: هَذَا الْعَبْدُ كَانَ مَعْصُومًا، قَالَ: فَإِذَا صَعِدَ الْمَلَكُ بِرُوحِهِ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ اسْتَقْبَلَهُ جِبْرِيلُ عَلَيْهِ الصَّلَاةُ وَالسَّلَامُ فِي سَبْعِينَ أَلْفًا مِنَ الْمَلَائِكَةِ، كُلٌّ يَأْتِيهِ بِبِشَارَةٍ مِنْ رَبِّهِ سِوَى بِشَارَةِ صَاحِبِهِ، قَالَ: فَإِذَا انْتَهَى مَلَكُ الْمَوْتِ بِرُوحِهِ إِلَى الْعَرْشِ، خَرَّ الرُّوحُ سَاجِدًا، فَيَقُولُ اللهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى لِمَلَكِ الْمَوْتِ: انْطَلِقْ بِرُوحِ عَبْدِي هَذَا، فَضَعْهُ فِي سِدْرٍ مَخْضُودٍ، وَطَلْحٍ مَنْضُودٍ، وَظِلٍّ مَمْدُودٍ، وَمَاءٍ مَسْكُوبٍ. قَالَ: فَإِذَا وُضِعَ فِي قَبْرِهِ جَاءَتْهُ الصَّلَاةُ، فَكَانَتْ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ، وَجَاءَهُ الصِّيَامُ فَكَانَ عَنْ يَسَارِهِ، وَجَاءَهُ الْقُرْآنُ وَالذِّكْرُ فَكَانَا عِنْدَ رَأْسِهِ، وَجَاءَهُ مَشْيُهُ إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ فَكَانَ عِنْدَ رِجْلِهِ، وَجَاءَهُ الصَّبْرُ فَكَانَ فِي نَاحِيَةِ الْقَبْرِ، قَالَ: فَيَبْعَثُ اللهُ تَعَالَى عَذَابًا مِنَ الْعَذَابِ، فَيَأْتِيهِ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ، فَتَقُولُ الصَّلَاةُ: وَرَاءَكَ، وَاللهِ مَا زَالَ دَائِبًا عُمُرَهُ كُلَّهُ، وَإِنَّمَا اسْتَرَاحَ الْآنَ حِينَ وُضِعَ فِي قَبْرِهِ، قَالَ: فَيَأْتِيهِ عَنْ يَسَارِهِ، فَيَقُولُ الصِّيَامُ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ، ثُمَّ يَأْتِيهِ مِنْ عِنْدِ رَأْسِهِ، فَيَقُولُ الْقُرْآنُ وَالذِّكْرُ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ، ثُمَّ يَأْتِيهِ مِنْ عِنْدِ رِجْلِهِ فَيَقُولُ مَشْيُهُ إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ، قَالَ: فَلَا يَأْتِيهِ الْعَذَابُ مِنْ نَاحِيَةٍ يَلْتَمِسُ هَلْ يَجِدُ مَسَاغًا إِلَّا وَجَدَ وَلِيَّ اللهِ تَعَالَى قَدْ أَحَدَّ حِسَّهُ، قَالَ: فَيَنْدَفِعُ الْعَذَابُ عِنْدَ ذَلِكَ فَيَخْرُجُ، وَيَقُولُ الصَّبْرُ لِسَائِرِ الْأَعْمَالِ: أَمَّا أَنَا لَمْ يَمْنَعْنِي أَنْ أُبَاشِرَ أَنَا بِنَفْسِي إِلَّا أَنِّي نَظَرْتُ مَا عِنْدَكُمْ، فَإِنْ عَجَزْتُمْ كُنْتُ أَنَا صَاحِبَهُ، فَأَمَّا إِذَا أَجْزَأْتُمْ عَنْهُ، فَأَنَا لَهُ ذُخْرٌ عِنْدَ الصِّرَاطِ وَالْمِيزَانِ. قَالَ: وَيَبْعَثُ اللهُ تَعَالَى مَلَكَيْنِ، أَبْصَارُهُمَا كَالْبَرْقِ الْخَاطِفِ، وَأَصْوَاتُهُمَا كَالرَّعْدِ الْقَاصِفِ، وَأَنْيَابُهُمَا كَالصَّيَاصِي، وَأَنْفَاسُهُمَا كَاللهَبِ، يَطَآنِ فِي أَشْعَارِهِمَا بَيْنَ مَنْكِبِ كُلِّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمَا مَسِيرَةُ كَذَا وَكَذَا، قَدْ نُزِعَتْ مِنْهُمَا الرَّأْفَةُ وَالرَّحْمَةُ، يُقَالُ لَهُمَا: مُنْكَرٌ وَنَكِيرٌ، فِي يَدِ كُلِّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمَا مِطْرَقَةٌ، لَوِ اجْتَمَعَ عَلَيْهِمَا رَبِيعَةُ وَمُضَرُ لَمْ يُقِلُّوهَا، قَالَ: فَيَقُولَانِ لَهُ: اجْلِسْ، قَالَ: فَيَسْتَوِي جَالِسًا، وَتَقَعُ أَكْفَانُهُ فِي حِقْوَيْهِ، قَالَ: فَيَقُولَانِ لَهُ: مَنْ رَبُّكَ ؟ وَمَا دِينُكَ ؟ وَمَا نَبِيُّكَ ؟ قَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ وَمَنْ يُطِيقُ الْكَلَامَ عِنْدَ ذَلِكَ، وَأَنْتَ تَصِفُ مِنَ الْمَلَكَيْنِ مَا تَصِفُ ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: يُثَبِّتُ اللهُ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا بِالْقَوْلِ الثَّابِتِ فِي الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا وَفِي الآخِرَةِ وَيُضِلُّ اللهُ الظَّالِمِينَ وَيَفْعَلُ اللهُ مَا يَشَاءُ، قَالَ: فَيَقُولُ: اللهُ رَبِّي وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ، وَدِينِي الْإِسْلَامُ الَّذِي دَانَتْ بِهِ الْمَلَائِكَةُ، وَنَبِيِّي مُحَمَّدٌ ﷺ خَاتَمُ النَّبِيِّينَ، قَالَ: فَيَقُولَانِ: صَدَقْتَ، قَالَ: فَيَدْفَعَانِ الْقَبْرَ فَيُوَسِّعَانِهِ مِنْ بَيْنِ يَدَيْهِ أَرْبَعِينَ ذِرَاعًا، وَمِنْ خَلْفِهِ أَرْبَعِينَ ذِرَاعًا، وَعَنْ يَمِينِهِ أَرْبَعِينَ ذِرَاعًا، وَعَنْ شِمَالِهِ أَرْبَعِينَ ذِرَاعًا، وَمِنْ عِنْدِ رَأْسِهِ أَرْبَعِينَ ذِرَاعًا، قَالَ: فَيُوَسِّعَانِ أَرْبَعِينَ ذِرَاعًا، ( قَالَ الْبُرْسَانِيُّ: وَأَحْسِبُهُ قَالَ ): وَأَرْبَعِينَ تُحَاطُ بِهِ. ثُمَّ يَقُولَانِ لَهُ: انْظُرْ فَوْقَكَ، قَالَ: فَيَنْظُرُ فَوْقَهُ، فَإِذَا بَابٌ مَفْتُوحٌ إِلَى الْجَنَّةِ، فَيَقُولَانِ لَهُ: يَا وَلِيَّ اللهِ هَذَا مَنْزِلُكَ إِذْ أَطَعْتَ اللهَ تَعَالَى قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ، إِنَّهُ يَصِلُ إِلَى قَلْبِهِ عِنْدَ ذَلِكَ فَرْحَةٌ لَا تَرْتَدُّ أَبَدًا، ثُمَّ يُقَالُ لَهُ: انْظُرْ تَحْتَكَ، فَيَنْظُرُ تَحْتَهُ، فَإِذَا بَابٌ مَفْتُوحٌ إِلَى النَّارِ، فَيَقُولَانِ لَهُ: يَا وَلِيَّ اللهِ هَذَا مَنْزِلُكَ لَوْ عَصَيْتَ اللهَ، فَنَجَوْتَ، أَخَّرَهَا عَلَيْكَ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: وَالَّذِي نَفْسُ مُحَمَّدٍ بِيَدِهِ، إِنَّهُ لَيَصِلُ إِلَى قَلْبِهِ عِنْدَ ذَلِكَ فَرْحَةٌ لَا يَزِيدُ أَبَدًا، قَالَ: وَقَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ ؓ: يُفْتَحُ لَهُ سَبْعَةٌ وَسَبْعُونَ بَابًا إِلَى الْجَنَّةِ، يَأْتِيهِ رِيحُهَا، وَبَرْدُهَا، حَتَّى يَبْعَثَهُ اللهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى. وَهَذَا الْإِسْنَادُ إِلَى أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ تَمِيمٍ الدَّارِيِّ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ، قَالَ: يَقُولُ اللهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى لِمَلَكِ الْمَوْتِ: انْطَلِقْ إِلَى عَدُوِّي فَأْتِنِي بِهِ، فَإِنِّي قَدْ بَسَطْتُ لَهُ مِنْ رِزْقِي وَسَرْبَلْتُهُ نِعْمَتِي فَأَبَى إِلَّا مَعْصِيَتِي، فَأْتِنِي بِهِ لِأَنْتَقِمَ مِنْهُ، قَالَ: فَيَنْطَلِقُ إِلَيْهِ مَلَكُ الْمَوْتِ فِي أَكْرَهِ صُورَةٍ رَآهَا أَحَدٌ مِنَ النَّاسِ قَطُّ، لَهُ اثْنَا عَشَرَ عَيْنًا، وَمَعَهُ سَفُّودٌ مِنْ حَدِيدٍ كَثِيرُ الشَّوْكِ، وَمَعَهُ خَمْسُمِائَةٍ مِنَ الْمَلَائِكَةِ، مَعَهُمْ نُحَاسٌ وَجَمْرٌ مِنْ جَمْرِ جَهَنَّمَ، وَمَعَهُمْ سِيَاطٌ مِنْ نَارٍ، لِينُهَا لِينُ السِّيَاطِ وَهِيَ نَارٌ تَأَجَّجُ، قَالَ: فَيَضْرِبُهُ مَلَكُ الْمَوْتِ بِذَلِكَ السَّفُّودِ ضَرْبَةً تَغِيبُ أَصْلُ كُلِّ شَوْكَةٍ مِنْ ذَلِكَ السَّفُّودِ فِي أَصْلِ كُلِّ شَعَرَةٍ وَعِرْقٍ وَظُفْرٍ، ثُمَّ يَلْوِيهِ لَيًّا شَدِيدًا، فَيَنْزِعُ رُوحَهُ مِنْ أَظْفَارِ قَدَمَيْهِ، فَيُلْقِيهَا فِي عَقِبَيْهِ، قَالَ: فَيُسْكَرُ عَدُوُّ اللهِ عِنْدَ ذَلِكَ سَكْرَةً، فَيُرَوِّحُ مَلَكُ الْمَوْتِ عَنْهُ، فَتَضْرِبُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ وَجْهَهُ وَدُبُرَهُ بِتِلْكَ السِّيَاطِ، ثُمَّ تَنْثُرُهُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ نَثْرَةً، فَتُنْزَعُ رُوحُهُ مِنْ عَقِبَيْهِ، فَيُلْقِيهَا فِي رُكْبَتَيْهِ، ثُمَّ يُسْكَرُ عَدُوُّ اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ سَكْرَةً عِنْدَ ذَلِكَ، فَيُرَفِّهُ مَلَكُ الْمَوْتِ عَنْهُ، قَالَ: فَتَضْرِبُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ وَجْهَهُ وَدُبُرَهُ بِتِلْكَ السِّيَاطِ، فَيَنْثُرُهُ مَلَكُ الْمَوْتِ نَثْرَةً، فَتُنْتَزَعُ رُوحُهُ مِنْ رُكْبَتَيْهِ، فَيُلْقِيهَا فِي حِقْوَيْهِ، قَالَ: فَيُسْكَرُ عَدُوُّ اللهِ عِنْدَ ذَلِكَ سَكْرَةً، فَيُرَفِّهُ مَلَكُ الْمَوْتِ عَنْهُ، فَتَضْرِبُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ وَجْهَهُ وَدُبُرَهُ بِتِلْكَ السِّيَاطِ، قَالَ: فَكَذَلِكَ إِلَى صَدْرِهِ إِلَى حَلْقِهِ، فَتَبْسُطُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ النُّحَاسَ وَجَمْرَ جَهَنَّمَ تَحْتَ ذَقْنِهِ، وَيَقُولُ مَلَكُ الْمَوْتِ: اخْرُجِي أَيَّتُهَا الرُّوحُ اللَّعِينَةُ الْمَلْعُونَةُ إِلَى سَمُومِ جَهَنَّمَ، وَظِلٍّ مِنْ يَحْمُومٍ لَا بَارِدٍ وَلَا كَرِيمٍ. قَالَ: فَإِذَا قَبَضَ مَلَكُ الْمَوْتِ رُوحَهُ، قَالَ الرُّوحُ لِلْجَسَدِ: جَزَاكَ اللهُ عَنِّي شَرًّا، قَدْ كُنْتَ بَطِيئًا بِي عَنْ طَاعَةِ اللهِ تَعَالَى، سَرِيعًا بِي إِلَى مَعْصِيَةِ اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ، وَقَدْ هَلَكْتَ وَأَهْلَكْتَ، قَالَ: وَيَقُولُ الْجَسَدُ لِلرُّوحِ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ، وَتَلْعَنُهُ بِقَاعُ الْأَرْضِ الَّتِي كَانَ يَعْصِي اللهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ عَلَيْهَا، قَالَ: وَيَنْطَلِقُ جُنُودُ إِبْلِيسَ يُبَشِّرُونَهُ بِأَنَّهُمْ قَدْ أَوْرَدُوا عَبْدًا مِنْ وَلَدِ آدَمَ النَّارَ، فَإِذَا وُضِعَ فِي قَبْرِهِ ضُيِّقَ عَلَيْهِ قَبْرُهُ حَتَّى تَخْتَلِفَ أَضْلَاعُهُ، وَتَدْخُلُ الْيُمْنَى فِي الْيُسْرَى، ( وَتَدْخُلُ ) الْيُسْرَى فِي الْيُمْنَى، فَيَبْعَثُ اللهُ تَعَالَى إِلَيْهِ أَفَاعِيَ كَأَعْنَاقِ الْإِبِلِ، يَأْخُذُونَهُ بِأَرْنَبَتِهِ، وَإِبْهَامَيْ قَدَمَيْهِ، فَتَقْرِضُهُ حَتَّى يَلْتَقِينَ فِي وَسَطِهِ، وَيَبْعَثُ اللهُ تَعَالَى بِمَلَكَيْنِ أَبْصَارُهُمَا كَالْبَرْقِ الْخَاطِفِ، وَأَصْوَاتُهُمَا كَالرَّعْدِ الْقَاصِفِ، وَأَنْيَابُهُمَا كَالصَّيَاصِي، وَأَنْفَاسُهُمَا كَاللهَبِ، يَطَآنِ فِي شُعُورِهِمَا، بَيْنَ مَنْكِبَيْ كُلِّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمَا مَسِيرَةُ كَذَا وَكَذَا، قَدْ نُزِعَتْ مِنْهُمَا الرَّأْفَةُ وَالرَّحْمَةُ، يُقَالَ لَهُمَا: مُنْكَرٌ وَنَكِيرٌ، فِي يَدِ كُلِّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمَا مِطْرَقَةٌ، لَوِ اجْتَمَعَ عَلَيْهَا رَبِيعَةُ وَمُضَرُ لَمْ يُقِلُّوهَا، قَالَ: فَيَقُولَانِ لَهُ: اجْلِسْ، قَالَ: فَيَجْلِسُ، فَيَسْتَوِي جَالِسًا، وَتَقَعُ أَكْفَانُهُ إِلَى حِقْوَيْهِ، قَالَ: فَيَقُولَانِ لَهُ: مَنْ رَبُّكَ ؟ وَمَا دِينُكَ ؟ وَمَنْ نَبِيُّكَ ؟ فَيَقُولُ: لَا أَدْرِي، فَيَقُولَانِ لَهُ: لَا دَرَيْتَ وَلَا تَلَيْتَ، قَالَ: فَيَضْرِبَانِهِ ضَرْبَةً يَطِيرُ شَرَارُهَا فِي قَبْرِهِ، ثُمَّ

✧ He said: "Go to My friend and bring him to Me, for I have tested him with prosperity and adversity and found him where I love. Bring him to Me, that I may give him rest." He said: "The Angel of Death will go to him, accompanied by five hundred angels. With them are shrouds and embalming perfume from Paradise, and with them are bundles of basil: the stem of each basil plant is one, and at its head are twenty colors, each color having a scent different from its companion's. With them is white silk containing pungent musk. He said: "The Angel of Death will sit at his head, and the angels will surround him. Each of them will place his hand on a limb of his body, and that white silk and pungent musk will be spread beneath his chin. A door to Paradise will be opened for him, and his soul will be soothed at that moment by the delights of Paradise—sometimes by its spouses, sometimes by its clothing, and sometimes by its fruits—just as a child's family soothes him when he cries. His spouses will be eager for him at that moment with great eagerness." He said: "The soul will emerge." (Al-Bursani said: he means to come out quickly because of what it sees of what it loves.) He said: "The Angel of Death will say: 'Come out, O good soul, to lote trees with thorns removed, and clustered plantains, and extended shade, and flowing water.'" He said: "The Angel of Death is gentler with him than a mother with her child, knowing that this soul is beloved to its Lord, so he seeks gentleness for it, out of love for its Lord and desiring the Lord's pleasure with it. So his soul will be drawn out as a hair is drawn from dough." He said: "Allah, Exalted, said: 'Those whom the angels take in a state of goodness' [Surah al-Nahl:32]. And He, Mighty and Majestic, said: 'Then if he is of those brought near, then rest and basil and a garden of bliss' [Surah al-Waqi'ah:88-89]." He said: "'Rest' from the hardship of death, and 'basil' with which he is received, and 'a garden of bliss' that faces him." He said: "When the Angel of Death takes his soul, the soul will say to the body: 'May Allah reward you well on my behalf. You were quick in me toward obedience to Allah, Exalted, and slow in me away from disobedience to Allah, Mighty and Majestic. You have been saved and you have saved.' He said: "The body will say the like of that to the soul." He said: "The places of the earth where he used to obey Allah, Exalted, will weep over him, and every gate of heaven through which his deeds ascended and his provision descended will weep for forty years." He said: "When the Angel of Death takes his soul, the five hundred angels will stay by his body. No son of Adam will turn him to one side except the angels turn him before them, and they will cover him with shrouds before the shrouds of the sons of Adam, and with embalming perfume before the embalming perfume of the sons of Adam. From the door of his house to the door of his grave, two rows of angels will stand, receiving him with prayers for forgiveness." He said: "At that, Iblis will cry out with a cry from which the bones of some of his body will crack, and he will say to his troops: 'Woe to you! How did this servant escape from you?' He said: "They will say: 'This servant was protected.'" He said: "When the angel ascends with his soul to the heaven, Jibril ﷺ will meet him with seventy thousand angels, each bringing him a glad tiding from his Lord different from his companion's." He said: "When the Angel of Death reaches the Throne with his soul, the soul will fall prostrate, and Allah, Blessed and Exalted, will say to the Angel of Death: 'Go with the soul of this servant of Mine and place it among lote trees with thorns removed, and clustered plantains, and extended shade, and flowing water.'" He said: "When he is placed in his grave, prayer will come to him and be on his right, fasting will come and be on his left, the Qur'an and remembrance will come and be at his head, his walking to prayer will come and be at his feet, and patience will come and be in a corner of the grave." He said: "Then Allah, Exalted, will send a punishment from the punishments, and it will approach him from his right, and prayer will say: 'Get back! By Allah, he was persistent all his life, and he has only now found rest when he was placed in his grave.' He said: "It will approach him from his left, and fasting will say the like of that. Then it will approach him from his head, and the Qur'an and remembrance will say the like of that. Then it will approach him from his feet, and his walking to prayer will say the like of that." He said: "The punishment will not approach him from any direction seeking a way except it will find the friend of Allah, Exalted, having blocked its path." He said: "The punishment will then retreat and leave, and patience will say to the other deeds: 'As for me, nothing prevented me from undertaking the matter myself except that I looked at what you have. If you were unable, I would be his companion. But since you have sufficed for him, I am a reserve for him at the bridge and the scale.'" He said: "Allah, Exalted, will send two angels whose eyes are like flashing lightning, whose voices are like crashing thunder, whose fangs are like cattle horns, and whose breaths are like flames. They tread in their hair, and between the shoulders of each of them is a distance of such and such. Mercy and compassion have been removed from them. They are called Munkar and Nakir. In the hand of each of them is a sledgehammer; if Rabi'ah and Mudar gathered against it, they could not lift it." He said: "They will say to him: 'Sit up.' He said: "He will sit up straight, and his shrouds will fall to his waist." He said: "They will say to him: 'Who is your Lord? What is your religion? Who is your Prophet?'" They said: "O Messenger of Allah, who can speak at that time when you describe the two angels as you describe?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "'Allah keeps firm those who believe with the firm word in this world and the Hereafter, and Allah sends astray the wrongdoers, and Allah does what He wills' [Surah Ibrahim:27]." He said: "He will say: 'Allah is my Lord alone, no partner has He. My religion is Islam, which the angels profess, and my Prophet is Muhammad ﷺ, the seal of the prophets.'" He said: "They will say: 'You have spoken the truth.'" He said: "They will push the grave and widen it: before him forty cubits, behind him forty cubits, on his right forty cubits, on his left forty cubits, and at his head forty cubits." He said: "They will widen it forty cubits." (Al-Bursani said: I think he said: "and forty cubits surrounding him.") Then they will say to him: "Look above you." He said: "He will look above him, and there will be a door opened to Paradise. They will say to him: 'O friend of Allah, this is your abode since you obeyed Allah, Exalted.'" He said: "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'By Him in Whose hand is my soul, at that moment a joy will reach his heart that will never turn back.' Then it will be said to him: "Look below you." He will look below him, and there will be a door opened to the Fire. They will say to him: 'O friend of Allah, this is your abode had you disobeyed Allah, but you are saved; He has deferred it for you.'" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "By Him in Whose hand is the soul of Muhammad, at that moment a joy will reach his heart that will never increase." He said: "'A'ishah ؓ said: 'Seventy-seven doors to Paradise will be opened for him, and its breeze and coolness will come to him until Allah, Blessed and Exalted, resurrects him.'" This chain goes to Anas b. Malik, from Tamim al-Dari, from the Prophet ﷺ, who said: "Allah, Blessed and Exalted, says to the Angel of Death: 'Go to My enemy and bring him to Me, for I have expanded My provision for him and clothed him with My favor, but he insisted on disobeying Me. Bring him to Me that I may take vengeance on him.'" He said: "The Angel of Death will go to him in the most horrible form anyone has ever seen, with twelve eyes, and with him is an iron spit with many thorns, and with him are five hundred angels. With them are copper and coals from the coals of Hell, and with them are whips of fire, their softness the softness of whips, but they are blazing fire." He said: "The Angel of Death will strike him with that spit a blow by which the base of every thorn of that spit disappears into the base of every hair, vein, and nail. Then he will twist it severely and pull his soul out from the nails of his feet and cast it into his heels." He said: "The enemy of Allah will be intoxicated at that with a swoon, and the Angel of Death will give him respite, and the angels will strike his face and back with those whips. Then the angels will shake him, and his soul will be pulled from his heels and cast into his knees." He said: "Then the enemy of Allah, Mighty and Majestic, will be intoxicated at that with a swoon, and the Angel of Death will give him respite." He said: "The angels will strike his face and back with those whips, and the Angel of Death will shake him, and his soul will be pulled from his knees and cast into his waist." He said: "Then the enemy of Allah will be intoxicated at that with a swoon, and the Angel of Death will give him respite, and the angels will strike his face and back with those whips." He said: "Thus it will continue until his chest and throat, then the angels will spread the copper and coals of Hell beneath his chin, and the Angel of Death will say: 'Come out, O accursed, cursed soul, to the scorching wind of Hell, and to the shade of black smoke, neither cool nor noble.'" He said: "When the Angel of Death takes his soul, the soul will say to the body: 'May Allah reward you with evil on my behalf. You were slow in me toward obedience to Allah, Exalted, and quick in me toward disobedience to Allah, Mighty and Majestic. You have perished and caused my destruction.'" He said: "The body will say the like of that to the soul, and the places of the earth where he used to disobey Allah, Mighty and Majestic, will curse him." He said: "The troops of Iblis will go to give him glad tidings that they have brought a servant from the children of Adam to the Fire. When he is placed in his grave, his grave will be constricted until his ribs interlace, the right entering the left and the left entering the right. Allah, Exalted, will send to him serpents like the necks of camels, which will seize him by his nose and the big toes of his feet and bite him until they meet in his middle. Allah, Exalted, will send two angels whose eyes are like flashing lightning, whose voices are like crashing thunder, whose fangs are like cattle horns, and whose breaths are like flames. They tread in their hair, and between the shoulders of each of them is a distance of such and such. Mercy and compassion have been removed from them. They are called Munkar and Nakir. In the hand of each of them is a sledgehammer; if Rabi'ah and Mudar gathered against it, they could not lift it." He said: "They will say to him: 'Sit up.' He said: "He will sit up straight, and his shrouds will fall to his waist." He said: "They will say to him: 'Who is your Lord? What is your religion? Who is your Prophet?'" He will say: "I do not know." They will say to him: "May you never know and never be guided." He said: "They will strike him a blow whose sparks fly in his grave. Then they will return and say to him: 'Look above you.' He will look, and there will be a door opened from Paradise. They will say to him: 'O enemy of Allah, this is your abode had you obeyed Allah, Mighty and Majestic.'" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "By Him in Whose hand is the soul of Muhammad, at that moment a regret will reach his heart that will never increase." He said: "They will say to him: 'Look below you.' He will look, and there will be a door opened to the Fire. They will say: 'O enemy of Allah, this is your abode since you disobeyed Allah, Mighty and Majestic.'" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "By Him in Whose hand is the soul of Muhammad, at that moment a regret will reach his heart, and it will never increase." 'A'ishah ؓ said: "Seventy-seven doors to the Fire will be opened for him, and its heat and scorching wind will come to him until Allah, Blessed and Exalted, resurrects him to it." This is a hadith of astonishing context, and it is a witness to much of what is established in the long famous hadith of al-Bara' ؓ. However, this chain is strange; we know of no one who narrated from Anas, from Tamim al-Dari ؓ except through this route. Yazid al-Raqashi is very weak in memory and has many rejected narrations; he did not control the chain, so he attributed to Anas ؓ everything he heard from others. Below him also are those like him or weaker. (216) The hadith of Abu Sa'id ؓ regarding the signs of the Hour has already been mentioned. In the Dar al-Asimah edition: (he resurrects), but what is established is from Ithaf al-Busiri, which matches the context.
