English translation

1932. It was narrated from Abû Qatâdah bin Rib'î that he used to narrate: "A funeral passed by the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ and he said: 'He is relieved and others are relieved of him.' They said: 'What does relieved mean and what does relieved of him mean? He said: 'The believing slave is relieved of the hardships and troubles of this world, and the people, the land, the trees and the animals are relieved of the immoral slave.'" (Sahîh)

Arabic text

1930 - أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ حَلْحَلَةَ، عَنْ مَعْبَدِ بْنِ كَعْبِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ أَبِي قَتَادَةَ بْنِ رِبْعِيٍّ أَنَّهُ كَانَ يُحَدِّثُ: أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مُرَّ عَلَيْهِ بِجَنَازَةٍ فَقَالَ: «مُسْتَرِيحٌ وَمُسْتَرَاحٌ مِنْهُ»، فَقَالُوا: مَا الْمُسْتَرِيحُ وَمَا الْمُسْتَرَاحُ مِنْهُ؟ قَالَ: «الْعَبْدُ الْمُؤْمِنُ يَسْتَرِيحُ مِنْ نَصَبِ الدُّنْيَا وَأَذَاهَا، وَالْعَبْدُ الْفَاجِرُ يَسْتَرِيحُ مِنْهُ الْعِبَادُ وَالْبِلَادُ وَالشَّجَرُ وَالدَّوَابُّ»

Commentary

1. "A believing slave": means a person who is Allâh-conscious, who does not harm people, or tyrannize fellow creatures. 2. "An evil-doer" denotes not only a disbeliever but it includes those people also who tyrannize others, harm fellow creatures and animals, and destroy habitations. Beside all these, they pay no heed to the rights of Allâh.
