حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ أَبِي خَيْثَمَةَ قَالَ: نَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عِمْرَانَ الْعَابِدِيُّ قَالَ: نَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنِ الْأَعْرَجِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ:
إِنَّ رَجُلًا مِمَّنْ كَانَ قَبْلَكُمْ أَسْرَفَ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ، فَقَالَ لِأَهْلِهِ حِينَ حَضَرَتْهُ الْوَفَاةُ: إِذَا أَنَا مُتُّ، فَأَحْرِقُونِي، ثُمَّ اسْحَقُونِي، ثُمَّ ذَرُّونِي فِي رِيحٍ فِي الْبَحْرِ، فَفَعَلُوا ذَلِكَ بِهِ، فَقَالَ اللهُ جَلَّ ذِكْرُهُ لِلرِّيحِ: اجْمَعِي مَا فِيكِ، فَإِذَا هُوَ قَائِمٌ. قَالَ: مَا حَمَلَكَ عَلَى مَا صَنَعْتَ ؟ قَالَ: خَشْيَتُكَ يَا رَبِّ. قَالَ: فَإِنِّي قَدْ غَفَرْتُ لَكَ

✧ A man from those before you transgressed against himself. When death came to him, he said to his family: When I die, burn me, then crush me, then scatter me in the wind over the sea. They did that to him. Then God, majestic is His mention, said to the wind: Gather what is in you. And behold, he was standing. He said: What made you do what you did? He said: Fear of You, O Lord. He said: I have forgiven you.
