English translation

1449. It was narrated from 'Abdur-Rahmān bin Ka'b bin Mālik, about Ka'b: "When Ka'b was dying, Umm Bishr bint Barā' bin Ma'rūr came to him and said: 'O Abu 'Abdur-Rahmān! If you meet so-and-so, convey Salām to him from me.' He said: 'May Allāh forgive you, O Umm Bishr! We are too busy to think of that.' She said: 'O Abu 'Abdur-Rahmān! Did you not hear the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ say: "The souls of the believers are in green birds, eating from the trees of Paradise"?' He said: 'Yes.' She said: 'That is what I mean.'" (Da'if)

1449 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، ح وحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا الْمُحَارِبِيُّ، جَمِيعًا عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ، عَنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ فُضَيْلٍ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ كَعْبِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ: لَمَّا حَضَرَتْ كَعْبًا الْوَفَاةُ أَتَتْهُ أُمُّ بِشْرٍ بِنْتُ الْبَرَاءِ بْنِ مَعْرُورٍ، فَقَالَتْ: يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ إِنْ لَقِيتَ فُلَانًا، فَاقْرَأْ عَلَيْهِ مِنِّي السَّلَامَ، قَالَ: غَفَرَ اللَّهُ لَكِ يَا أُمَّ بِشْرٍ نَحْنُ أَشْغَلُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ، قَالَتْ: يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ أَمَا سَمِعْتَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «إِنَّ أَرْوَاحَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ فِي طَيْرٍ خُضْرٍ، تَعْلُقُ بِشَجَرِ الْجَنَّةِ» قَالَ: بَلَى، قَالَتْ: فَهُوَ ذَاكَ
