Sahih al-Bukhari 1304

Hadith text

Narrated `Abdullah bin `Umar:Sa`d bin 'Ubada became sick and the Prophet (ﷺ) along with `Abdur Rahman bin `Auf, Sa`d bin Abi Waqqas and `Abdullah bin Mas`ud visited him to inquire about his health. When he came to him, he found him surrounded by his household and he asked, "Has he died?" They said, "No, O Allah's Apostle." The Prophet (ﷺ) wept and when the people saw the weeping of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) they all wept. He said, "Will you listen? Allah does not punish for shedding tears, nor for the grief of the heart but he punishes or bestows His Mercy because of this." He pointed to his tongue and added, "The deceased is punished for the wailing of his relatives over him." `Umar used to beat with a stick and throw stones and put dust over the faces (of those who used to wail over the dead)

Abdullah bin Umar (رضی اللہ عنہما) bataate hain: Sa'd bin Ubada bimar hue aur Nabi, Abdur-Rahman bin Auf, Sa'd bin Abi Waqqas aur Abdullah bin Mas'ud ke saath unki tabiyat poochhne gaye. Jab Aap unke paas pahunche, unhe apne ghar walon se ghire paaya aur pucha: "Kya unka intiqal ho gaya?" Unhone kaha: "Nahi, Ya Allah ke Rasool." Nabi rone lage, aur jab logon ne Allah ke Rasool ko rote dekha, sab rone lage. Aap ne farmaya: "Kya tum sunte nahi? Allah aansu bahane par ya dil ke gham par saza nahi deta, balki isse (zubaan se) saza deta hai ya reham karta hai," aur apni zubaan ki taraf ishara karke joda: "Marhoom ko uske rishtedaron ke wailawe se saza hoti hai." Umar (marhoom par) wailawa karne walon ko chhadi se maarte aur patthar phenkte aur unke chehron par mitti daalte the.
