Saʿd b. Abū Waqqāṣ
"عَنْ سَعْدٍ قَالَ: جَاءَ أَعْرَابِىٌّ إِلَى النَّبِىَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ: إنَّ أَبِى كان يَصِلُ الرَّحِمَ، وَكَانَ وَكَانَ، فَأَيْنَ هوَ؟ قَالَ: فِى النَّارِ، فَكَأَنَّ الأَعْرَابِىَّ وَجَدَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ، قَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ! فَأَيْنَ أبُوكَ؟ قَالَ: حَيْثُمَا مَرَرْتَ بِقَبْرِ كَافِرٍ فَبَشِّرْهُ بِالنَّارِ، فَأَسْلَمَ الأَعْرَابِىُّ بَعدُ، فَقَالَ: لَقَدْ كلَّفَنِى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ تَعَبًا، مَا مَرَرْتُ بِقبْرِ كَافرٍ إلَّا بَشَّرْتُهُ بِالنَّارِ".

"From Saʿd, who said: A Bedouin came to the Prophet ﷺ and said: 'My father used to maintain the ties of kinship, and he used to do such and such, so where is he?' He said: 'In the Fire.' It was as though the Bedouin was distressed by that. He said: 'O Messenger of God! Then where is your father?' He said: 'Wherever you pass by the grave of a disbeliever, give him the glad tidings of the Fire.' The Bedouin later accepted Islam, and he said: 'The Messenger of God ﷺ has burdened me with hardship; I never pass by the grave of a disbeliever except that I give him the glad tidings of the Fire.'"
