Hadith #334
Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ ذُكِرَ لَهَا حَدِيثُ ابْنِ عُمَرَ أَنَّ الْمَيِّتَ يُعَذَّبُ
بِبُكَاءِ الْحَيِّ قَالَتْ وَهِلَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ كَمَا وَهِلَ يَوْمَ قَلِيبِ بَدْرٍ إِنَّمَا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِنَّهُ لَيُعَذَّبُ وَأَهْلُهُ يَبْكُونَ عَلَيْهِ يَعْنِي الْكَافِرَ

English Translation
It was narrated from Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that she corrected the understanding that the deceased is punished because of the weeping of the living. She said: 'What Ibn Umar has erred in, he also erred in on the day of the Qalyub well. What the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said is: "He is being punished while his family weeps over him" — meaning an unbeliever.'
