distinguished for accommodating (the haughty and proud in
me), and the Paradise said: What is the matter that the

find an abode in me? Thereupon Allah said to Paradise: You
are a (means) of My Mercy. 1 shall show mercy through you
to one whom I will from amongst My servants. And lie said
to the Hell: You are a (sign) of My chastisement and I
shall chastise through you anyone whom I will from amongst
My servants and both of you, would be full. And as regards
the Hell it would not be full until Allah, the Exalted and
Glorious, places His foot therein, and it would say:

of an ox and they flog people with their help. (The second
one) the women who would be naked in spite of their being
dressed, who are seduced (to wrong paths) and seduce

Book 040, Number 6841:
Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (may peace be
upon him) as saying: If you survive for a time you would

evening with the anger of Allah.
Book 040, Number 6842:
Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (may peace be
upon him) as saying: If you live for a time, you would

(It is) a promise (binding) upon us. Lo! We are to perform
it, and the first person who would be clothed on the Day
of Resurrection would be (Hadrat) Ibrahim (peace be upon
him)" and, behold! some persons of my Ummah would be
brought and taken to the left and I would say: My Lord,
they are my companions, and it would be said: You do not
know what they did after you, and I would say just as the
pious servant (Hadrat 'Isa) said:, I was a witness
regarding them as I remained among them and Thou art a
witness over everything, so if Thou chastisest them, they
are Thy servants and if Thou for- givest them, Thou art
Mighty, Wise" (v. 117-118). And it would be said to him:

Chapter 16: THE QUALITIES BY WHICH THE INMATES OF
PARADISE AND THE DENIZENS OF HELL CAN BE RECOGNISED IN THIS
WORLD
Book 040, Number 6853:
'Iyad b. Him-ar reported that Allah's Messenger (may
peace be upon him), while delivering a sermon one day,
said: Behold, my Lord commanded me that I should teach you
which you do not know and which He has taught me today.
(He has instructed thus): The property which I have
conferred upon them is lawful for them. I have created My
servants as one having a natural inclination to the
worship of Allah but it is Satan who turns them away from
the right religion and he makes unlawful what has been
declared lawful for them and he commands them to ascribe
partnership with Re, although he has no justification for
that. And verily, Allah looked towards the people of the
world and He showed hatred for the Arabs and the
non-Arabs, but with the exception of some remnants from
the People of the Book. And He (further) said: I have sent
thee (the Holy Prophet) in order to put you to test and
put (those to test) through you. And I sent the Book to
you which cannot be washed away by water, so that you may
recite it while in the state of wakefulness or sleep.
Verily, Allah commanded me to burn (kill) the Quraish. I
said: My Lord, they would break my head (like the tearing)
of bread, and Allah said: You turn them out as they turned
you out, you fight against them and We shall help you in
this, you should spend and you would be conferred upon.
You send an army and I would send an army five times
greater than that. Fight against those who disobey you
along with those who obey you. The inmates of Paradise are
three: One who wields authority and is just and fair, one
who Is truthful and has been endowed with power to do good
deeds. And the person who is merciful and kind hearted
towards his relatives and to every pious Muslim, and one
who does not stretch his hand in spite of having a large
family to support. And He said: The inmates of Hell are
five: the weak who lack power to (avoid evil), the
(carefree) who pursue (everything irrespective of the fact
that it is good or evil) and who do not have any care for
their family or for their wealth. And those dishonest
whose greed cannot be concealed even in the case of minor
things. And the third. who betray you. morning and
evening, in regard to your family and your property. He
also made a mention of the miser and the liar and those
who are in the habit of abusing people and using obscene
and foul language. Abu Ghassan in his narration did not
make mention of" Spend and there would be spent for you."

Qatada with the same chain of transmitters but with a
slight variation of wording.
Book 040, Number 6855:

'Iyad b. Himar that Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon

the same.
Book 040, Number 6856:
Iyad. b. Himar reported tbat, while Allah's Messenger
(may peace be upon him) was delivering an address, he
stated that Allah commanded me The rest of the hadith is
the same, and there is an addition in it:" Allah revealed
to me that we should be humble amongst ourselves and none
should show pride upon the others, And it does not behove
one to do so, and He also said: There are among you people
to follow not caring a bit for their family and property.
Qatada said: Abu Abdullah, would this happen? Thereupon he
said: Yes. By Allah, I found this in the days of ignorance
that a person grazed the goat of a tribe and did not find
anyone but their slave-girl (and he did not spare her) but
committed adultery with her.

amongst the inmates of Paradise (he is shown the seat)
from amongst the inmates of Paradise and if he is one from
amongst the denizens of Hell (he is shown the seat) from

That is your seat until Allah raises you on the Day of
Resurrection (and sends you to your proper seat).

seat) in the Hell-Fire. Then it is said to him: That is
your seat where you would be sent on the Day of
Resurrection.
Book 040, Number 6859:
Abu Sa'id al-Khudri reported: I did not hear this
badith from Allah's Apostle (may peace be upon him)
directly but it was Zaid b. Thibit who narrated it from
him. As Allah's Apostle (may peace be upon him) was going
along with us towards the dwellings of Bani an-Najjar,
riding upon his pony, it shied and he was about to fall.
He found four, five or six graves there. He said: Who
amongst you knows about those lying in the graves? A
person said: It is I. Thereupon he (the Holy Prophet)
said: In what state did they die? He said: They died as
polytheists. He said: These people are passing through the
ordeal in the graves. If it were not the reason that you
would stop burying (your dead) in the graves on listening
to the torment in the grave which I am listening to, I
would have certainly made you hear that. Then turning his
face towards us, he said: Seek refuge with Allah from the
torment of Hell. They said: We seek refuge with Allah from
the torment of Hell. He said: Seek refuge with Allah from
the torment of the grave. They said: We seek refuge with
Allali from the torment of the grave. He said: Seek refuge
with Allah from turmoil, its visible and invisible
(aspects), and they said: We seek refuge with Allah from
turmoil and its visible and invisible aspects and he said:
Seek refuge with Allah from the turmoil of the Dajjal, and
they said We seek refuge with Allah from the turmoil of
the Dajjal.

grave.

graves.

and make him sit and say to him: What you have to say
about this person (the Holy Prophet)? If he is d believer,
lie would say: I bear testimony to the fact that he is a
servant of Allali and His Messenger. Then it would be said
to him: Look to your seat in the Hell- Fire, for Allah has
substituted (the seat of yours) with a seat in Paradise.
Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) said: He would
be shown both the seats. Qatada said: It was mentioned to
us that his grave (the grave of a believer) expands to
seventy cubits and is full with verdure until the Day when
they would be resurrected.

be upon him) as saying: This verse:" Allah grants

rereaied in connection with the torment of the grave. It

Allah is my Lord and Muhammad is my Apostle (may peace be
upon him), and that is (what is implied) by the words of
Allah, the Exalted:" Allah keeps steadfast those who
believe with firm word in this world and in the
Hereafter."
Book 040, Number 6866:
Al-Bara' b. 'Azib reported that this verse:" Allah

go out (of his body) it would be received bv two angels
who would take it to the sky. Hammad (one of the narrators

its odour, (and further said) that the dwellers of the sky
say: Here comes the pious soul from the side of the earth
Let there be blessings of Allah upon the body in which it
resides. And it is carried (by the angels) to its Lord,
the Exalted and Glorious. He would say: Take it to its
destined end. And if he is a nonbeliever and as it (the
soul) leaves the body-Hammad made a mention of its foul
smell and of its being cursed-the dwellers of the sky say:
There comes a dirty soul from the side of the earth, and
it would be said: Take it to its destined end. Abu Huraira

Mecca and Medina that we began to look for the new moon.
And I was a man with sharp eye- sight, so I could see it,
but none except me saw it. I began to say to 'Umar: Don't
you see it? But he would not see it. Thereupon Umar said:
I would soon be able to see it (when it will shine more
brightly). I lay upon bed. He then made a mention of the
people of Badr to us and said: Allah's Messenger (may
peace be upon him) showed us one day before (the actual
battle) the place of death of the people (participating)
in (the Battle) of Badr and he was saying: This would be
the place of death of so and so tomorrow, if Allah wills.
Umar said: By Him Who sent him with truth, they did not
miss the places (of their death) which Allah's Messenger
(may peace be upon him) had pointed for them. Then they
were all thrown in a well one after another. Allah's
Messenger (may peace be upon him) then went to them and
said: O, so and so, the son of so and so; O so and so, the
son of so and so, have you found correct what Allah and
His Messenger had promised you? I have, however, found
absolutely true what Allah had promised with me. Umar
said: Allah's Messenger, how are you talking with the

any reply.

Rab'ila, O Shaiba b. Rabi'a, have you not found what your
Lord had promised with you to be correct? As for me, I
have found the promises of my Lord to be (perfectly)
correct. Umar listened to the words of Allah's Apostle
(may peace be upon him) and said: Allah's Messenger, how
do they listen and respond to you? They are dead and their
bodies have decayed. Thereupon he (the Holy Prophet) said:
By Him in Whose Hand is my life, what I am saying to them,
even you cannot hear more distinctly than they, but they
lack the power to reply. Then'he commanded that they
should be buried in the well of Badr.
