حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ " إِنَّ الْمَيِّتَ لَيُعَذَّبُ بِبُكَاءِ أَهْلِهِ عَلَيْهِ " فَذُكِرَ ذَلِكَ لِعَائِشَةَ، فَقَالَتْ: وَهِلَ - يَعْنِي ابْنَ عُمَرَ - إِنَّمَا مَرَّ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَى قَبْرٍ فَقَالَ: " إِنَّ صَاحِبَ هَذَا (٢) لَيُعَذَّبُ وَأَهْلُهُ يَبْكُونَ عَلَيْهِ "، ثُمَّ قَرَأَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ: {وَلَا تَزِرُ وَازِرَةٌ وِزْرَ أُخْرَى} [الأنعام: ١٦٤] " (٣)، ،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Prophet (ﷺ) said: "The deceased is punished because of the weeping of his family over him." Someone mentioned this to Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), so Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) said: They have misunderstood; Allah Almighty says that no person bears the burden of another. In fact, the Prophet (ﷺ) once passed by a grave and said regarding it that at that moment, he is being punished and his family is weeping over him.
