Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عَدِيٍّ عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ عَنْ أَنَسٍ قَالَ دَخَلَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَائِطًا مِنْ حِيطَانِ بَنِي النَّجَّارِ فَسَمِعَ صَوْتًا مِنْ قَبْرٍ فَسَأَلَ عَنْهُ مَتَى دُفِنَ هَذَا فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ دُفِنَ هَذَا فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ فَأَعْجَبَهُ ذَلِكَ وَقَالَ لَوْلَا أَنْ لَا تَدَافَنُوا لَدَعَوْتُ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ أَنْ يُسْمِعَكُمْ عَذَابَ الْقَبْرِ.
English Translation
Ibn Abi Adiyy narrated to us from Humayd, from Anas, who said: The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, entered one of the orchards of Banu al-Najjar, and heard a voice from a grave. He asked, "When was this person buried?" They said, "O Messenger of Allah, this person was buried in the time of pre-Islamic ignorance." That pleased him, and he said, "Were it not that you would stop burying your dead, I would have asked Allah, Mighty and Majestic, to let you hear the punishment of the grave."
