Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ صُبَيْحٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ سِيرِينَ قَالَ ذَكَرُوا عِنْدَ عِمْرَانَ بْنِ حُصَيْنٍ الْمَيِّتَ يُعَذَّبُ بِبُكَاءِ الْحَيِّ فَقَالُوا كَيْفَ يُعَذَّبُ الْمَيِّتُ بِبُكَاءِ الْحَيِّ فَقَالَ عِمْرَانُ قَدْ قَالَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ.
English Translation
Muhammad ibn Ja'far told us, Shu'bah told us, from Abdullah ibn Subayh, who said: I heard Muhammad ibn Sirin say: They mentioned before Imran ibn Husayn that the dead is punished because of the weeping of the living, so they said: "How can the dead be punished for the weeping of the living?" Imran said: "The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, indeed said it."
