Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنِ الْأَشْعَثِ بْنِ سُلَيْمٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ أَنَّ يَهُودِيَّةً دَخَلَتْ عَلَيْهَا فَذَكَرَتْ عَذَابَ الْقَبْرِ فَقَالَتْ لَهَا أَعَاذَكِ اللَّهُ مِنْ عَذَابِ الْقَبْرِ فَسَأَلَتْ عَائِشَةُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ عَذَابِ الْقَبْرِ فَقَالَ نَعَمْ عَذَابُ الْقَبْرِ حَقٌّ قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ فَمَا رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُصَلِّي صَلَاةً بَعْدُ إِلَّا تَعَوَّذَ مِنْ عَذَابِ الْقَبْرِ.
English Translation
Muhammad ibn Ja'far told us: Shu'bah told us, from Ash'ath ibn Sulaym, from his father, from Masruq, from Aisha: that a Jewish woman came to her and mentioned the punishment of the grave, and said to her, "May Allah protect you from the punishment of the grave." So Aisha asked the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, about the punishment of the grave, and he said, "Yes, the punishment of the grave is real." Aisha said: "I never saw the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, pray a prayer after that without seeking refuge from the punishment of the grave."
