Hadith #489
Arabic Text
قَالَ الزُّهْرِيُّ وَأَخْبَرَنِي عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ أَخْبَرَتْنِي عَائِشَةُ وَابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حِينَ نَزَلَ بِهِ جَعَلَ يُلْقِي خَمِيصَةً لَهُ عَلَى وَج
ْهِهِ فَإِذَا اغْتَمَّ كَشَفَهَا عَنْ وَجْهِهِ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ لَعْنَةُ اللَّهِ عَلَى الْيَهُودِ وَالنَّصَارَى اتَّخَذُوا قُبُورَ أَنْبِيَائِهِمْ مَسَاجِدَ قَالَ تَقُولُ عَائِشَةُ يُحَذِّرُ مِثْلَ الَّذِي صَنَعُوا

English Translation
It was narrated from Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, whenever he felt distressed during his illness, would cover his face. When distress intensified, he uncovered his face and said: 'May the curse of Allah be upon the Jews and Christians — they took the graves of their prophets as places of worship.' She said: 'He was warning against doing what they did.'
