1003. Mūsā bin Abī Mūsā Al-Ashā‘ī narrated from his father that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: “No one dies and they stand over him crying and saying: ‘O what a great man he was! O how respectful he was!’ except that two angels are appointed for him to poke him (saying): ‘Is that you?’” (Ḥasan) Abū ‘Eisā said: This Hadīth is Ḥasan Gharīb.

Arabic text

١٠٠٣ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌عَلِيُّ بْنُ حُجْرٍ ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا ‌مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي ‌أَسِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي أَسِيدٍ أَنَّ ‌مُوسَى بْنَ أَبِي مُوسَى الْأَشْعَرِيَّ أَخْبَرَهُ، عَنْ ‌أَبِيهِ ؛ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «مَا مِنْ مَيِّتٍ يَمُوتُ فَيَقُومُ بَاكِيهِ فَيَقُولُ: وَاجَبَلَاهْ! وَاسَيِّدَاهْ! أَوْ نَحْوَ ذَلِكَ، إِلَّا وُكِّلَ بِهِ مَلَكَانِ يَلْهَزَانِهِ»: أَهَكَذَا كُنْتَ؟ هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ.

Commentary

Imām At-Tirmidhī has explained the narration of ‘Umar and clarified the weeping by which the deceased is punished and tortured. Crying with a loud voice, wailing and riping out one’s hair, narrating false attributes of the deceased and saying untrue things about him during wailing, all this brings punishment to the dead.
