حَدَّثَنَا هَاشِمٌ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، أَنَّ يَهُودِيَّةً كَانَتْ تَخْدُمُهَا، فَلَا تَصْنَعُ عَائِشَةُ إِلَيْهَا شَيْئًا مِنَ الْمَعْرُوفِ، إِلَّا قَالَتْ لَهَا الْيَهُودِيَّةُ: وَقَاكِ اللهُ عَذَابَ الْقَبْرِ، قَالَتْ: فَدَخَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَيَّ، فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، هَلْ لِلْقَبْرِ عَذَابٌ قَبْلَ يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ؟ قَالَ: " لَا، وَعَمَّ ذَاكَ؟ " قَالَتْ: هَذِهِ الْيَهُودِيَّةُ لَا نَصْنَعُ إِلَيْهَا مِنَ الْمَعْرُوفِ شَيْئًا، (٢) إِلَّا قَالَتْ: وَقَاكِ، ، اللهُ عَذَابَ الْقَبْرِ، قَالَ: " كَذَبَتْ يَهُودُ (١) ، وَهُمْ عَلَى اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ أَكْذَبُ (٢) ، لَا عَذَابَ دُونَ يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ "، قَالَتْ: ثُمَّ مَكَثَ بَعْدَ ذَاكَ مَا شَاءَ اللهُ أَنْ يَمْكُثَ، فَخَرَجَ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ نِصْفَ النَّهَارِ مُشْتَمِلًا بِثَوْبِهِ، مُحْمَرَّةً عَيْنَاهُ، وَهُوَ يُنَادِي بِأَعْلَى صَوْتِهِ: " أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ، أَظَلَّتْكُمُ الْفِتَنُ كَقِطَعِ اللَّيْلِ الْمُظْلِمِ، أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ، لَوْ تَعْلَمُونَ مَا أَعْلَمُ بَكَيْتُمْ (٣) كَثِيرًا وَضَحِكْتُمْ قَلِيلًا، أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ، اسْتَعِيذُوا بِاللهِ مِنْ عَذَابِ الْقَبْرِ، فَإِنَّ عَذَابَ الْقَبْرِ حَقٌّ " (٤)، ،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Aisha that a Jewish woman used to serve her. Whenever Aisha did any kindness to her, she would pray for her, saying, "May Allah protect you from the punishment of the grave." Once, the Prophet (peace be upon him) came to me, so I asked him, "O Messenger of Allah! Is there punishment in the grave before the Day of Resurrection?" The Prophet (peace be upon him) replied, "No, but why are you asking?" I said, "Whenever I do any good to this Jewish woman, she says, 'May Allah protect you from the punishment of the grave.'" The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "The Jews lie; they even falsely attribute things to Allah. There will be no punishment before the Day of Resurrection." After a short time, "as long as Allah willed," the Prophet (peace be upon him) came out at midday, his clothes wrapped around him, his eyes were red, and he was loudly proclaiming, "O people! Trials have come upon you like pieces of a dark night. O people! If you knew what I know, you would weep much and laugh little. O people! Seek refuge with Allah from the punishment of the grave, and the punishment of the grave is indeed true."
