حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ يَعْنِي السَّالَحِينِيَّ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي سِنَانٍ قَالَ: دَفَنْتُ ابْنًا لِي وَإِنِّي لَفِي الْقَبْرِ إِذْ أَخَذَ بِيَدَيَّ أَبُو طَلْحَةَ فَأَخْرَجَنِي فَقَالَ: أَلَا أُبَشِّرُكَ؟ قَالَ: قُلْتُ: بَلَى. قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي الضَّحَّاكُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ (٢) أَبِي مُوسَى الْأَشْعَرِيِّ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ، ، اللهُ تَعَالَى " يَا مَلَكَ الْمَوْتِ قَبَضْتَ وَلَدَ عَبْدِي. قَبَضْتَ قُرَّةَ عَيْنِهِ وَثَمَرَةَ فُؤَادِهِ ". قَالَ: نَعَمْ. قَالَ: " فَمَا قَالَ؟ " قَالَ: حَمِدَكَ وَاسْتَرْجَعَ. قَالَ: " ابْنُوا لَهُ بَيْتًا فِي الْجَنَّةِ، وَسَمُّوهُ بَيْتَ الْحَمْدِ " (١)، ،

Translation

English translation

Abu Sinan says that after burying my son, I was still in the grave when Abu Talha took my hand and pulled me out and said, "Shall I not give you glad tidings?" I said, "Why not?" He narrated to me, with his chain, this hadith of Abu Musa (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said: Allah Almighty says to the Angel of Death, "O Angel of Death! Have you taken the soul of My servant's son? Have you taken the coolness of his eyes and a piece of his heart?" He says, "Yes." Allah Almighty asks, "Then what did My servant say?" They reply, "He praised You and recited 'Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji'un.'" Allah Almighty says, "Build a house for this person in Paradise and name it 'Bayt al-Hamd' (the House of Praise)." The previous hadith is also narrated through this second chain.
