12
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مَعْمَرٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَارِثِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ قَالَ: بَيْنَمَا النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فِي نَخْلٍ لَنَا، نَخْلٍ لأَبِي طَلْحَةَ، تَبَرَّزَ لِحَاجَتِهِ، وَبِلاَلٌ يَمْشِي وَرَاءَهُ، يُكْرِمُ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَنْ يَمْشِيَ إِلَى جَنْبِهِ، فَمَرَّ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم بِقَبْرٍ فَقَامَ، حَتَّى تَمَّ إِلَيْهِ بِلاَلٌ، فَقَالَ: وَيْحَكَ يَا بِلاَلُ، هَلْ تَسْمَعُ مَا أَسْمَعُ؟ قَالَ: مَا أَسْمَعُ شَيْئًا، فَقَالَ: صَاحِبُ هَذَا الْقَبْرِ يُعَذَّبُ، فَوُجِدَ يَهُودِيًّا.


Anas said, "While the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant himpeace, was in one of our palm groves where the trees belonged to Abu Talha,he went out to answer a call of nature. Bilal was walking behind him. TheProphet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, honoured him by askinghim to walk at his side. The Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant himpeace, passed by a grave and stood there until Bilal reached him. he said,'Woe to you, Bilal. Did you hear what I heard?' He replied, 'I did nothear anything.' He said, 'The man in the grave is being punished.' He foundthat it was a Jew."
