Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ عَنْ حَرْمَلَةَ بْنِ إِيَاسٍ الشَّيْبَانِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي قَتَادَةَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ صَوْمُ يَوْمِ عَرَفَةَ كَفَّارَةُ سَنَتَيْنِ سَنَةٍ مَاضِيَةٍ وَسَنَةٍ مُسْتَقْبَلَةٍ وَصَوْمُ يَوْمِ عَاشُورَاءَ كَفَّارَةُ سَنَةٍ.
English Translation
Yahya narrated to us, Shu'bah narrated to us, Abu al-Tayyah narrated to us, from Anas, from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), who said: "When a deceased person is placed in his grave and his companions depart from him - and indeed he hears the sound of their sandals - two angels come to him and make him sit up. They say to him: 'What did you say about this man, Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him)?' As for the believer, he says: 'I bear witness that he is the servant of Allah and His Messenger.' It is said to him: 'Look at your seat in the Fire. Allah has replaced it for you with a seat in Paradise.' So the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: 'He sees them both.' As for the disbeliever or the hypocrite, he says: 'I do not know. I used to say what the people said.' It is said to him: 'You neither knew nor did you follow.' He is then struck with an iron hammer a blow between his ears, and he screams a cry that is heard by everything near him except humans and jinn."
