English translation

1002. 'Umar bin Al-Khaṭṭāb narrated that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "The deceased is punished for the crying of his family over him.” (Ṣaḥīḥ) There are narrations on this topic from Ibn ‘Umar and ‘Imrān bin Ḥuṣain. Abū ‘Eisā said: The Hadīth of ‘Umar is a Ḥasan Ṣaḥīḥ Hadīth. There are those among the people of knowledge who disliked crying over the deceased. They said: “The deceased is punished for the crying of his family over him.” So they followed this Hadīth. Ibn Al-Mubārak said: “I hope that if he (i.e., the deceased) had prohibited them (from doing so) during his life, then nothing will happen to him due to that.”

Arabic text

١٠٠٢ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ أَبِي زِيَادٍ ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ سَعْدٍ ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌أَبِي ، عَنْ ‌صَالِحِ بْنِ كَيْسَانَ ، عَنِ ‌الزُّهْرِيِّ ، عَنْ ‌سَالِمِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِيهِ قَالَ: قَالَ ‌عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «الْمَيِّتُ يُعَذَّبُ» بِبُكَاءِ أَهْلِهِ عَلَيْهِ. وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ وَعِمْرَانَ بْنِ حُصَيْنٍ. حَدِيثُ عُمَرَ حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ. وَقَدْ كَرِهَ قَوْمٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ الْبُكَاءَ عَلَى الْمَيِّتِ، قَالُوا: الْمَيِّتُ يُعَذَّبُ بِبُكَاءِ أَهْلِهِ عَلَيْهِ، وَذَهَبُوا إِلَى هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ، وَقَالَ ابْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ: أَرْجُو إِنْ كَانَ يَنْهَاهُمْ فِي حَيَاتِهِ أَنْ لَا يَكُونَ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ ذَلِكَ شَيْءٌ.
