حَدَّثَنِي هَارُونُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الأَيْلِيُّ، وَحَرْمَلَةُ بْنُ يَحْيَى، قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ، حَدَّثَنِي عُمَرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ زَيْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ، أَنَّ أَبَاهُ، حَدَّثَهُ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ، عُمَرَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ " إِذَا صَارَ أَهْلُ الْجَنَّةِ إِلَى الْجَنَّةِ وَصَارَ أَهْلُ النَّارِ إِلَى النَّارِ أُتِيَ بِالْمَوْتِ حَتَّى يُجْعَلَ بَيْنَ الْجَنَّةِ وَالنَّارِ ثُمَّ يُذْبَحُ ثُمَّ يُنَادِي مُنَادٍ يَا أَهْلَ الْجَنَّةِ لاَ مَوْتَ وَيَا أَهْلَ النَّارِ لاَ مَوْتَ . فَيَزْدَادُ أَهْلُ الْجَنَّةِ فَرَحًا إِلَى فَرَحِهِمْ وَيَزْدَادُ أَهْلُ النَّارِ حُزْنًا إِلَى حُزْنِهِمْ " .
`Abdullah bin `Umar Narrated from:
`Umar b. Muhammad b. Zaid b. `Abdullah b. `Umar b. al-Khattab reported on the authority of his father `Abdullah b. `Umar that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said: When the inmates of Paradise would go to Paradise and the inmates of Hell would go to Hell, death would be called and it would be placed between the Paradise and the Hell and then slaughtered and then the announcer would announce: O inmates of Paradise, no death. O inmates of Hell-Fire, no death. And it would increase the delight of the inmates of Paradise and it would increase the grief of the inmates of Hell-Fire.

Summary of Sahih Muslim Hadith 2850b
This Hadith about no death after Judgment gives a clear picture of the final state after people enter Paradise and Hell. The Messenger of Allah (صلى الله عليه وسلم) said that death will be brought and placed between Paradise and Hell, then it will be slaughtered. After that, an announcer will call out to the people of Paradise that there is no death, and to the people of Hell-Fire that there is no death. The main teaching is permanence. For the people of Paradise, this news adds joy to their joy because their blessing will not end. For the people of Hell-Fire, it adds grief to their grief because their suffering is not followed by death.
What we learn from this hadith
- The life after Judgment is shown as lasting and final in this report.
- The people of Paradise gain more joy when they know death will not come.
- The people of Hell-Fire feel more grief when they know death will not end their state.
- The Hadith pushes the listener to take the Hereafter seriously.
