حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ بْنِ صُهَيْبٍ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: مَرَّتْ عَلَيْهِ جَنَازَةٌ، فَأَثْنَوْا عَلَيْهَا خَيْرًا، فَقَالَ: " وَجَبَتْ، وَجَبَتْ "، وَمَرَّتْ عَلَيْهِ (٢) جَنَازَةٌ، فَأَثْنَوْا عَلَيْهَا شَرًّا، فَقَالَ: " وَجَبَتْ، وَجَبَتْ "، فَقَالَ: عُمَرُ، يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، قَوْلُكَ الْأَوَّلُ: وَجَبَتْ، وَقَوْلُكَ الْآخَرُ: وَجَبَتْ؟ قَالَ: " أَمَّا الْأَوَّلُ، فَأَثْنَوْا عَلَيْهَا خَيْرًا، فَقُلْتُ: وَجَبَتْ لَهُ الْجَنَّةُ، وَأَمَّا الْآخَرُ، فَأَثْنَوْا عَلَيْهَا شَرًّا، فَقُلْتُ: وَجَبَتْ لَهُ النَّارُ، وَأَنْتُمْ شُهَدَاءُ اللهِ فِي أَرْضِهِ (٣) " (٤)،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that a funeral passed in front of the Prophet (ﷺ), and someone praised the deceased, and the people praised him. The Prophet (ﷺ) said three times, "It has become obligatory." Then another funeral passed, and the people criticized the deceased. The Prophet (ﷺ) again said three times, "It has become obligatory." Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "May my parents be sacrificed for you! The first funeral passed, and the people praised the deceased, and you said three times, 'It has become obligatory.' And when the second funeral passed and the people criticized the deceased, you again said three times, 'It has become obligatory.'?" The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Whomsoever you praise, Paradise becomes obligatory for him, and whomsoever you criticize, Hell becomes obligatory for him." Then he said three times, "You are Allah's witnesses on earth."
