حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ الْمَقْبُرِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيَّ رضى الله عنه

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «إِذَا وُضِعَتِ الْجِنَازَةُ وَاحْتَمَلَهَا الرِّجَالُ عَلَى أَعْنَاقِهِمْ، فَإِنْ كَانَتْ صَالِحَةً قَالَتْ قَدِّمُونِي. وَإِنْ كَانَتْ غَيْرَ صَالِحَةٍ قَالَتْ: يَا وَيْلَهَا أَيْنَ يَذْهَبُونَ بِهَا يَسْمَعُ صَوْتَهَا كُلُّ شَىْءٍ إِلاَّ الإِنْسَانَ، وَلَوْ سَمِعَهُ صَعِقَ»

The Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) said, When the funeral is ready and the men carry it on their shoulders, if the deceased was righteous it will say, ‘Present me (hurriedly),’ and if he was not righteous, it will say, ‘Woe to it (me)! Where are they taking it (me)?’ Its voice is heard by everything except man and if he heard it he would fall unconscious.

আবূ সা‘ঈদ খুদরী (রাঃ) হতে বর্ণিত, আল্লাহর রাসূল সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বলেছেনঃ যখন জানাযা খাটে রাখা হয় এবং পুরুষরা তা কাঁধে বহন করে নেয়, তখন সে সৎ হলে বলতে থাকে, আমাকে সামনে এগিয়ে নিয়ে যাও। আর সৎ না হলে সে বলতে থাকে, হায় আফসোস! তোমরা এটাকে কোথায় নিয়ে যাচ্ছ? মানব জাতি ব্যতীত সবাই তার চিৎকার শুনতে পায়। মানুষ তা শুনলে জ্ঞান হারিয়ে ফেলত। (১৩১৬, ১৩৮০)

ہم سے عبدالعزیز نے بیان کیا ‘ انہوں نے کہا کہ ہم سے لیث نے بیان کیا ‘ انہوں نے کہا کہ ہم سے سعید مقبری نے بیان کیا ‘ ان سے ان کے باپ کیسان نے کہ انہوں نے ابو سعید خدری رضی اللہ عنہ سے سنا کہ رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فرمایا کہ جب میت چارپائی پر رکھی جاتی ہے اور مرد اسے کاندھوں پر اٹھاتے ہیں تو اگر وہ نیک ہو تو کہتا ہے کہ مجھے آگے لے چلو۔

لیکن اگر نیک نہیں تو کہتا ہے ہائے بربادی! مجھے کہاں لیے جا رہے ہو۔ اس آواز کو انسان کے سوا تمام اللہ کی مخلوق سنتی ہے۔ اگر انسان کہیں سن پائے تو بیہوش ہو جائے۔

Telah menceritakan kepada kami ['Abdul 'Aziz bin 'Abdullah] telah menceritakan kepada kami [Al Laits] dari [Sa'id AL Maqbariy] dari [bapaknya] bahwa dia mendengar dari [Abu Sa'id AL Khudriy radliallahu 'anhu] bahwa Rasulullah Shallallahu'alaihiwasallam bersabda: "Jika jenazah diletakkan lalu dibawa oleh para laki-laki di atas pundak mereka, maka jika jenazah tersebut termasuk orang shalih (semasa hidupnya) maka dia (jenazah tersebut) berkata; "Bersegeralah kalian (membawa aku).

Dan jika ia bukan dari orang shalih, maka dia akan berkata; "Celaka, kemana mereka akan membawanya?. Suara jenazah itu akan didengar oleh setiap makhluq kecuali manusia dan seandainya manusia mendengarnya, tentu dia jatuh pingsan

Ebu Said el-Hudrî r.a., Nebi Sallallahu Aleyhi ve Sellem'den şunu rivayet etmiştir: "Cenaze hazırlanıp da erkekler onu taşımak için omuzlarına aldıklannda şayet cenaze iyi bir kimse ise: 'Beni bir an önce götürün' der. Şayet iyi bir kimse değil ise; 'Eyvah bana, beni nereye götürüyorsunuz? der. Onun sesini insan dışında her şey duyar. İnsan onun sesini duysaydı bayılırdı

Sahih al-Bukhari 1314, Book 23, Funerals (Al-Janaa'iz), Hadith 71. 1 min read

What it means

The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) informed that when the deceased is placed on the bier and carried by men on their shoulders, if the deceased was righteous, it would say: Take me forward, because of the bliss it sees ahead. But if the deceased was not righteous, it would cry out in a terrible voice: Woe to it!

Where are they taking it?! Due to the torment it sees ahead. Everything hears its voice except man, and if he could hear it, he would be unconscious from the intensity of what he hears.

What it teaches

  • The righteous deceased sees the good tidings before being buried, while the disbeliever is distressed and sees the opposite.
  • Some sounds are heard by creatures other than humans, but humans cannot hear them.
  • The Sunnah is to carry the funeral bier on the shoulders of men, not women, due to the Prophet's prohibition of women following the funeral procession.
