حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ عُثْمَانَ ثنا سَعِيدُ بْنُ مَرْيَمَ ثنا أَبُو غَسَّانَ عَنْ أَبِي حَازِمٍ عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ
أَنَّ رَجُلًا كَانَ مِنْ أَعْظَمِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ غَنَاءً عَنِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ فِي غَزْوَةٍ غَزَاهَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَنَظَرَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ «مَنْ أَحَبَّ أَنْ يَنْظُرَ إِلَى رَجُلٍ مِنْ أَهْلِ النَّارِ فَلْيَنْظُرْ إِلَى هَذَا» فَاتَّبَعَهُ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْقَوْمِ وَهُوَ عَلَى تِلْكَ الْحَالِ مِنْ أَشَدِّ النَّاسِ عَلَى الْمُشْرِكِينَ حَتَّى جُرِحَ فَاسْتَعْجَلَ الْمَوْتَ فَأَخَذَ ذُبَابَ سَيْفِهِ فَجَعَلَهُ بَيْنَ ثَدْيَيْهِ حَتَّى خَرَجَ مِنْ بَيْنِ كَتِفَيْهِ فَأَقْبَلَ الرَّجُلُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ مُسْرِعًا فَقَالَ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ رَسُولُ اللهِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «وَمَا ذَاكَ؟» قَالَ قُلْتَ «مَنْ أَحَبَّ أَنْ يَنْظُرَ إِلَى رَجُلٍ مِنْ أَهْلِ النَّارِ فَلْيَنْظُرْ إِلَى هَذَا» وَكَانَ مِنْ أَعْظَمِنَا غَنَاءً عَنِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ فَعَرَفْتُ أَنَّهُ لَا يَمُوتَ عَلَى ذَلِكَ فَلَمَّا جُرِحَ اسْتَعْجَلَ الْمَوْتَ فَقَتَلَ نَفْسَهُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عِنْدَ ذَلِكَ «إِنَّ الْعَبْدَ لَيَعْمَلُ عَمَلَ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ وَإِنَّهُ لَمِنْ أَهْلِ النَّارِ وَيَعْمَلُ بِعَمَلِ أَهْلِ النَّارِ وَإِنَّهُ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ إِنَّمَا الْأَعْمَالُ بِالْخَوَاتِيمِ»

✧ A man was among the greatest of the Muslims in benefit to the Muslims in an expedition he undertook with the Messenger of God ﷺ. The Messenger of God ﷺ looked at him and said: “Whoever would like to look at a man from the people of the Fire, let him look at this man.” A man from the people followed him while he was in that state, one of the harshest of people against the polytheists, until he was wounded. Then he sought to hasten death. He took the tip of his sword, placed it between his chest and thrust it until it came out between his shoulders. The man came rushing to the Messenger of God ﷺ and said: I bear witness that you are the Messenger of God. The Messenger of God ﷺ said: “And what is that?” He said: You said: “Whoever would like to look at a man from the people of the Fire, let him look at this man,” and he was among the greatest of us in benefit to the Muslims. I knew that he would not die upon that state. When he was wounded, he hastened death and killed himself. The Messenger of God ﷺ said at that: “A servant may perform the deeds of the people of Paradise while he is from the people of the Fire, and he may perform the deeds of the people of the Fire while he is from the people of Paradise. Indeed, deeds are judged by their endings.”
