4878. It was narrated from Rāshid Ibn Sa'd and 'Abdur-Raḥmān bin Jubair, from Anas bin Mālik who said: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "When I was taken up (into heaven), I passed by some people who had nails of copper, with which they were scratching their faces and chests. I said: 'Who are these people, O Jibrīl?' He said: 'They are the ones who consumed the people's flesh and impugned their honor.'" (Sahīh) Abū Dāwūd said: And Yaḥyā narrated it to us from 'Uthmān, from Baqiyyah, and the chain does not contain Anas.

Arabic text

4878 - حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ الْمُصَفَّى، حَدَّثَنَا بَقِيَّةُ، وَأَبُو الْمُغِيرَةِ، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا صَفْوَانُ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي رَاشِدُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، وَعَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ جُبَيْرٍ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " لَمَّا عُرِجَ بِي مَرَرْتُ بِقَوْمٍ لَهُمْ أَظْفَارٌ مِنْ نُحَاسٍ يَخْمُشُونَ وُجُوهَهُمْ وَصُدُورَهُمْ، فَقُلْتُ: مَنْ هَؤُلَاءِ يَا جِبْرِيلُ، قَالَ : هَؤُلَاءِ الَّذِينَ يَأْكُلُونَ لُحُومَ النَّاسِ، وَيَقَعُونَ فِي أَعْرَاضِهِمْ " قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ: حَدَّثَنَاه يَحْيَى بْنُ عُثْمَانَ، عَنْ بَقِيَّةَ، لَيْسَ فِيهِ أَنَسٌ.
