أَخْبَرَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ حُجْرٍ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْعَلَاءُ وَهُوَ ابْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ مَوْلَى مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ جَحْشٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ جَحْشٍ قَالَ
كُنَّا جُلُوسًا عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَرَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ ثُمَّ وَضَعَ رَاحَتَهُ عَلَى جَبْهَتِهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ «سُبْحَانَ اللهِ مَاذَا نُزِّلَ مِنَ التَّشْدِيدِ؟» فَسَكَتْنَا وَفَرِقْنَا فَلَمَّا كَانَ مِنَ الْغَدِ سَأَلْتُهُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مَا هَذَا التَّشْدِيدُ الَّذِي نُزِّلَ؟ فَقَالَ «وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَوْ أَنَّ رَجُلًا قُتِلَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ ثُمَّ أُحْيِيَ ثُمَّ قُتِلَ ثُمَّ أُحْيِيَ ثُمَّ قُتِلَ وَعَلَيْهِ دِينٌ مَا دَخَلَ الْجَنَّةَ حَتَّى يُقْضَى عَنْهُ دَيْنُهُ»

✧ We were sitting with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ when he raised his head toward the sky, then placed his palm on his forehead, then said: "Glory be to Allah! What severity has been sent down?" We fell silent and were afraid. The next day I asked him: "O Messenger of Allah, what is this severity that has been sent down?" He said: "By the One in whose hand is my soul, if a man were killed in the path of Allah, then brought to life, then killed, then brought to life, then killed, and he owed a debt, he would not enter Paradise until his debt is paid on his behalf."
