Shahi Bukhari

Vol 1, Book 3. Knowledge. Hadith 086.

Narrated By Asma: I came to 'Aisha while she was praying, and said to her, "What has
happened to the people?" She pointed out towards the sky. (I looked towards the
mosque), and saw the people offering the prayer. 'Aisha said, "Subhan Allah." I said to
her, "Is there a sign?" She nodded with her head meaning, "Yes." I, too, then stood (for
the prayer of eclipse) till I became (nearly) unconscious and later on I poured water on
my head.
After the prayer, the Prophet praised and glorified Allah and then said, "Just now at this
place I have seen what I have never seen before, including Paradise and Hell. No doubt
it has been inspired to me that you will be put to trials in your graves and these trials will
be like the trials of Masiah-ad-Dajjal or nearly like it (the sub narrator is not sure which
expression Asma' used).
You will be asked, 'What do you know about this man (the Prophet Muhammad)?' Then
the faithful believer (or Asma' said a similar word) will reply, 'He is Muhammad Allah's
Apostle who had come to us with clear evidences and guidance and so we accepted his
teachings and followed him. And he is Muhammad.' And he will repeat it thrice. Then
the angels will say to him, 'Sleep in peace as we have come to know that you were a
faithful believer.' On the other hand, a hypocrite or a doubtful person will reply, 'I do not
know, but I heard the people saying something and so I said it.' (the same)."

Vol 1, Book 4. Ablutions (Wudu'). Hadith 184.

Narrated By Asma' bint Abu Bakr: I came to 'Aisha the wife of the Prophet during the
solar eclipse. The people were standing and offering the prayer and she was also
praying. I asked her, "What is wrong with the people?" She beckoned with her hand
towards the sky and said, "Subhan Allah." I asked her, "Is there a sign?" She pointed
out, "Yes." So I, too, stood for the prayer till I fell unconscious and later on I poured
water on my head. After the prayer, Allah's Apostle praised and glorified Allah and said,
"Just now I have seen something which I never saw before at this place of mine,
including Paradise and Hell. I have been inspired (and have understood) that you will be
put to trials in your GRAVEs and these trials will be like the trials of Ad-Dajjal, or nearly
like it (the sub narrator is not sure of what Asma' said).
Angels will come to every one of you and ask, 'What do you know about this man?' A
believer will reply, 'He is Muhammad, Allah's Apostle , and he came to us with self-
evident truth and guidance. So we accepted his teaching, believed and followed him.'
Then the angels will say to him to sleep in peace as they have come to know that he
was a believer. On the other hand a hypocrite or a doubtful person will reply, 'I do not
know but heard the people saying something and so I said the same.'"
Vol 2, Book 18. Eclipses. Hadith 162.

Narrated By Fatima bint Al-Mundhir: Asma' bint Al Bakr said, "I came to 'Aisha the wife
of the Prophet (p.b.u.h) during the solar eclipse. The people were standing and offering
the prayer and she was also praying too. I asked her, 'What has happened to the
people?' She pointed out with her hand towards the sky and said, 'Subhan-Allah'. I said,
'Is there a sign?' She pointed out in the affirmative." Asma' further said, "I too then stood
up for the prayer till I fainted and then poured water on my head. When Allah's Apostle
had finished his prayer, he thanked and praised Allah and said, 'I have seen at this
place of mine what I have never seen even Paradise and Hell. No doubt, it has been
inspired to me that you will be put to trial in the GRAVEs like or nearly like the trial of
(Masih) Ad-Dajjal. (I do not know which one of the two Asma' said.)

(The angels) will come to everyone of you and will ask what do you know about this
man (i.e. Muhammad). The believer or a firm believer (I do not know which word Asma'
said) will reply, 'He is Muhammad, Allah's Apostle (p.b.u.h) who came to us with clear
evidences and guidance, so we accepted his teachings, believed and followed him.' The
angels will then say to him, 'Sleep peacefully as we knew surely that you were a firm
believer.' The hypocrite or doubtful person (I do not know which word Asma' said) will
say, 'I do not know. I heard the people saying something so I said it (the same).'"

Vol 2, Book 23. Funerals (Al-Janaa'iz). Hadith 422.

Narrated By Anas: The Prophet said, "When a human being is laid in his GRAVE and
his companions return and he even hears their foot steps, two angels come to him and
make him sit and ask him: What did you use to say about this man, Muhammad ? He
will say: I testify that he is Allah's slave and His Apostle. Then it will be said to him,
'Look at your place in the Hell-Fire. Allah has given you a place in Paradise instead of
it.' " The Prophet added, "The dead person will see both his places. But a non-believer
or a hypocrite will say to the angels, 'I do not know, but I used to say what the people
used to say! It will be said to him, 'Neither did you know nor did you take the guidance
(by reciting the Quran).' Then he will be hit with an iron hammer between his two ears,
and he will cry and that cry will be heard by whatever approaches him except human
beings and jinns."

Vol 2, Book 23. Funerals (Al-Janaa'iz). Hadith 456.


Narrated By Anas bin Malik: Allah's Apostle said, "When (Allah's) slave is put in his
GRAVE and his companions return and he even hears their footsteps, two angels come
to him and make him sit and ask, 'What did you use to say about this man (i.e.
Muhammad)?' The faithful Believer will say, 'I testify that he is Allah's slave and His
Apostle.' Then they will say to him, 'Look at your place in the Hell Fire; Allah has given
you a place in Paradise instead of it.' So he will see both his places." (Qatada said, "We
were informed that his GRAVE would be made spacious." Then Qatada went back to
the narration of Anas who said;) Whereas a hypocrite or a non-believer will be asked,
"What did you use to say about this man." He will reply, "I do not know; but I used to say
what the people used to say." So they will say to him, "Neither did you know nor did you
take the guidance (by reciting the Quran)." Then he will be hit with iron hammers once,
that he will send such a cry as everything near to him will hear, except Jinns and human
beings. (See Hadith No. 422).

Vol 9, Book 92. Holding Fast To The Qur'an and Sunnah. Hadith 390
Narrated By Asma' bint Abu Bakr: I came to 'Aisha during the solar eclipse. The people
were standing (offering prayer) and she too, was standing and offering prayer. I asked,
"What is wrong with the people?" She pointed towards the sky with her hand and said,
Subhan Allah!''
I asked her,
"Is there a sign?" She nodded with her head meaning, yes. When Allah's Apostle
finished (the prayer), he glorified and praised Allah and said, "There is not anything that
I have not seen before but I have seen now at this place of mine, even Paradise and
Hell. It has been revealed to me that you people will be put to trial nearly like the trial of
Ad-Dajjal, in your GRAVEs. As for the true believer or a Muslim (the sub-narrator is not
sure as to which of the two (words Asma' had said) he will say, 'Muhammad came with
clear signs from Allah, and we responded to him (accepted his teachings) and believed
(what he said)' It will be said (to him) 'Sleep in peace; we have known that you were a
true believer who believed with certainty.' As for a hypocrite or a doubtful person,
(the sub-narrator is not sure as to which word Asma' said) he will say, 'I do not know,
but I heard the people saying something and so I said the same.'"
