أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ قُدَامَةَ الْمِصِّيصِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ

مَرَّ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِحَائِطٍ مِنْ حِيطَانِ مَكَّةَ أَوِ الْمَدِينَةِ فَسَمِعَ صَوْتَ إِنْسَانَيْنِ يُعَذَّبَانِ فِي قُبُورِهِمَا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «يُعَذَّبَانِ وَمَا يُعَذَّبَانِ فِي كَبِيرٍ» ثُمَّ قَالَ «بَلَى كَانَ أَحَدُهُمَا لَا يَسْتَتِرُ مِنْ بَوْلِهِ وَكَانَ الْآخَرُ يَمْشِي بِالنَّمِيمَةِ ثُمَّ دَعَا بِجَرِيدَةٍ فَكَسَرَهَا كِسْرَتَيْنِ فَوَضَعَ عَلَى كُلِّ قَبْرٍ مِنْهُمَا كِسْرَةً» فَقِيلَ لَهُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ لِمَ فَعَلْتَ هَذَا فَقَالَ «لَعَلَّهُ أَنْ يُخَفَّفَ عَنْهُمَا مَا لَمْ يَيْبَسَا أَوْ إِلَى أَنْ يَيْبَسَا»

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed by one of the gardens of Makkah or Madinah and heard the sound of two people being tormented in their graves. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "They are being tormented, and they are not tormented for something major." Then he said, "Indeed, one of them did not protect himself from his urine, and the other used to spread malicious gossip." Then he called for a palm branch, broke it into two pieces, and placed a piece on each grave. Someone said to him, "O Messenger of Allah, why did you do this?" He said, "Perhaps it will be lightened for them as long as they do not dry out, or until they dry out."
