Part 82

Abu Hurairah # related that the Prophet # said, “Allah will say on the Day of Resurrection, ‘O son of Adam, I made you to ride on horses and camels, I made you marry women, and T made you lead and Tarba’ (achieve wealth as well as obedience from others) — so where is (your) gratefulness for that?” (Ahmad)

you as you forgot me.’ He 3 will then meet a second (slave) and say, ‘So speak, did | not honor you, make you marry, make you lead, and make you have control over horses and camels? And did J not leave you to lead and Tarba’ (achieve wealth as well as obedience from others)?’ He will say, ‘Yes.’ Allah # will say, ‘Did you realize that you would meet Me?’ He will say, ‘No, O my Lord.’ He 4 will say, ‘I indeed forget you just as you forgot me.’ Then He %& will meet a third (slave) and say the same to him. He (the slave) will say, ‘O my Lord, I believed in You, in Your Book, and in Your Messenger. And I prayed, fasted, and gave charity,’ and he will praise (himself) with the best that he is able to (praise himself with), He will say, ‘Then it is right over here.’ Then it will be said, ‘Now we will send our witness against you.’ He (the man) will say to himself, ‘Who is the one that will testify against me?’ Then his mouth will be sealed, and it will be said to his thigh, to his flesh, and to his bones, and then his thigh, his flesh, and his bones will enunciate his deeds that were (perpetrated by him)...and that is the hypocrite, and that is the one that Allah will be angry with. Then a caller will call out, ‘Let every nation follow what it used to worship.”’ (Muslim) And we will mention the hadith later on in its entirety. Al-Bazzaar related the same from both Abu Hurairah # and Abu Sa’eed %, who both imputed it to the Messenger of Allah #8.

Abu Sa’eed st related that the Messenger of Allah # said, “On the

Day of Resurrection, the disbeliever will be known by his deeds; then, he will deny and dispute. It will be said, ‘These are your neighbors, all testifying against you.’ He will say, “They have lied’ It will be said, ‘Your family and your kindred (testify against you).’ He will say, ‘They have lied.’ It will be said, ‘Take an oath,’ and they will take an oath. Then Allah will silence them, and their tongues will testify against them, and Allah will make them (ie. the disbelievers) enter the Hellfire.” (Related by Abu Ya’laa)

Hakeem ibn Mu’aawiyah related from his father # that the Prophet 8 said, “You will come on the Day of Resurrection, having Fidaam (blockers, to prevent one from talking) on your mouths. The first to speak from the son of Adam is his thigh and his hand.” Related by Ahmad and Al-Baihagee.

Abu Ayyoob # related that the Messenger of Allah 2% said, “The first to dispute on the Day of Resurrection is a man and his wife. By Allah, her tongue will not speak, but rather her hand and her legs will testify against her for what she used to find fault with in her husband. And his hands and legs will testify as to what he dealt to her. Then a man and her servant will be called in the same manner. Then the people of extravagance (Israaf) will be called. Neither Dawaaneeq nor Qaraareet (a portion of a dinar) will be taken from them, but rather the good deeds of this one will be given over to this one that he wronged. And the sins of this one will be given over to the one who wronged him. Then the haughty, oppressive ones will be brought in hooked rods of iron (to punish them). Then it will be said, ‘Return them to the Hellfire.’ Then I do not know - will they enter it, or is (their situation) as Allah 36 says:

“There is not one of you bit will pass over it (Hell): this is with your Lord; a decree which must be accomplished. Then We shall save those who used to fear Allah 3% and were dutiful to Him. And We shall leave the Zalimun (polytheists and wrong-doers) therein (humbled) to their knees (in Hell)” (Quran 19: 71,72),

Abu Bakr Ibn Abee Ad-Dunyaa related this narration.

Verse: 40 oh 25 Lo WHI ES app

“That Day it will declare its information (about all that happened over it of good or evil), Because your Lord will inspire it.’

Then the Messenger of Allah 2% said, “Do you know what its information is?’ The Companions said, “Allah and His Messenger know best.” He #% said, “Its information is for it to bear witness upon every male or female slave (of Allah), testifying as to all that was done on its surface, (So) for it to say, ‘He did such and such on such and such day.’ And that is its information.” (Related by Al-Baihaqee) At-Tirmidhee and An-Nasaaee related it through a different chain from Abu Ayyoob #, At-Tirmidhee said, “Hasan Ghareeb sahih.””

Al-Hasan Al-Basree related that Khasfah ‘Amm Al-Farazdagq said, “I went to the Messenger of Allah #8, and I heard him recite this Verse:

“So whosoever does good equal to the weight of an atom (or a small ant) shall see it. And whosoever does evil equal to the weight of an atom (or a small ant) shall see ipl

Then he #% said, ‘By Allah, I do not mind if I do not hear other than it; it is sufficient for me; it is sufficient for me.” (Related by AlBaihaqee)
