Grave - Punishment عذاب القبر

  • [216]  عَنْ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رضي الله عنهما  قَالَ : مرَّ النبيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم  بحائطٍ من حيطان المدينة – أو مكة – فَسِمَعَ صَوتَ إنسَانَيْنِ يُعَذَّبَانِ  في قُبورِهِما  فَقالَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم (( يُعَذَّبَانِ  وما يُعَذَّبَانِ في كَبِيرٍ ))  ثم قال : (( بَلَى  كَانَ أَحَدُهُمَا  لا يَسْتَتِرُ مِنْ بَوْلِهِ ؛ وكَانَ الآخَرُ يَمْشِي بِالنَّمَيمَةِ  ))  ثم دَعَا بِجَرِيدةٍ  فَكَسَرَها كِسْرَتَيْنِ ؛ فَوَضَعَ عَلَى كُلِّ قَبْرٍ منهما كِسرَةُ  فَقِيلَ لَهُ : يا رسولَ اللهِ لِمَ فَعَلتَ هَذَا ؟  قَالَ : (( لَعَلَّهُ أَنْ يُخَفَّفَ عَنْهُمَا مَا لَمْ تَيْبَسَا )) أو (( إلى أنْ يَيْبَسَا ))

( صحيح البخاري )

Narrated Ibn `Abbas

Once the Prophet, while passing through one of the graveyards of Medina or Mecca heard the voices of two persons who were being tortured in their graves. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, “These two persons are being tortured not for a major sin (to avoid).” The Prophet (peace be upon him) then added, “Yes! (they are being tortured for a major sin). Indeed, one of them never saved himself from being soiled with his urine while the other used to go about with calumnies (to make enmity between friends). The Prophet (peace be upon him) then asked for a green leaf of a date-palm tree, broke it into two pieces and put one on each grave. On being asked why he had done so, he replied, “I hope that their torture might be lessened, till these get dried.”

(Sahih al-Bukhari)

  • [1375]  عَنْ أَبِي أَيُّوبَ رضي الله عنه  قَالَ : خَرَجَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم  وَقَدْ وَجَبَتِ الشَّمْسُ  فَسِمَعَ صَوْتًا  فَقَالً (( يَهُودُ تُعَذَّبُ فِي قُبُورِهَا ))

( صحيح البخاري )

It was narrated that Abu Ayyub said

“The Messenger of Allah went out after the sun had set, and heard a sound. He said ‘(It is ) Jews being tormented in their graves
