حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ (٣) ، عَنْ أَشْعَثَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ، عَنْ شَهْرِ بْنِ حَوْشَبٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " إِنَّ الرَّجُلَ لَيَعْمَلُ بِعَمَلِ أَهْلِ الْخَيْرِ سَبْعِينَ سَنَةً، فَإِذَا أَوْصَى حَافَ فِي وَصِيَّتِهِ، فَيُخْتَمُ لَهُ بِشَرِّ عَمَلِهِ، فَيَدْخُلُ النَّارَ، وَإِنَّ الرَّجُلَ لَيَعْمَلُ بِعَمَلِ أَهْلِ، ، الشَّرِّ سَبْعِينَ سَنَةً، فَيَعْدِلُ فِي وَصِيَّتِهِ، فَيُخْتَمُ لَهُ بِخَيْرِ عَمَلِهِ، فَيَدْخُلُ الْجَنَّةَ " قَالَ: ثُمَّ يَقُولُ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ: " وَاقْرَءُوا إِنْ شِئْتُمْ: {تِلْكَ حُدُودُ اللهِ} [النساء: ١٣]- إِلَى قَوْلِهِ - {وَلَهُ (١) عَذَابٌ مُهِينٌ} [النساء: ١٤] " (٢)،
Translation
English translation
It is narrated from Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said: A person performs the deeds of the righteous for seventy years, but when he makes a will, he acts unjustly in it, thus his end is upon the worst of deeds and he enters Hell. Whereas another person performs the deeds of sinners for seventy years, but when he makes a will, he acts justly in it, thus his end is upon the best of deeds and he enters Paradise. Then Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: If you wish, recite this verse: "These are the limits set by Allah... up to His saying: a humiliating punishment."
