Al-Lu'lu Wal-MarjanHadith Number 1824
حديث أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ رضي الله عنها، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ، قَالَ: إِنَّ الْعَبْدَ إِذَا وُضِعَ فِي قَبْرِهِ، وَتَوَلَّى عَنْهُ أَصْحَابُهُ، وَإِنَّهُ لَيَسْمَعُ قَرْعَ نِعَالِهِمْ، أَتَاهُ مَلَكَانِ، فَيُقعِدَانِهِ فَيقُولَانِ: مَا كُنْتَ تَقُولُ فِي هذَا الرَّجُلِ (لِمُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ) فَأَمَّا الْمُؤْمِنُ ⦗٢٩٨⦘ فَيَقُولُ: أَشْهَدُ أَنَّهُ عَبْدُ اللهِ وَرَسُولُهُ فَيُقَالُ لَهُ: انْظُرْ إِلَى مَقْعَدِكَ مِنَ النَّارِ، قَدْ أَبْدَلَكَ اللهُ بِهِ مَقْعَدًا مِنَ الْجَنَّةِ فَيَرَاهُمَا جَمِيعًا.
Anas bin Malik Narrated from:
Allâh's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم said, "When (Allâh's) slave is put in his grave and his companions return, and (while) he even hears their footsteps, two angels come to him and make him sit up and ask, 'What did you use to say about this man (i.e. Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم )?' Then as regards a faithful believer, he will say, 'I testify that he is Allâh's slave and His Messenger.' Then they will say to him, 'Look at your place in the Hell-fire; Allâh has changed for you a place in Paradise instead of it.' So he will see both his places.” ( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadith No. 456, Vol. 2 )
