Yazid al-Faqir said: This view of the Khawarij (i.e. those who commit major sins and would be eternally doomed to Hell) had obsessed me, and we set out in a large group intending to perform the Hajj and then going to the people (for the propagation of the views of the Khawarij). He (the narrator) said: We happened to past by Medina and found there Jabir b. 'Abdullah sitting near a column narrating to the people (the ahadith of) the Prophet ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ). When he mentioned the inhabitants of Hell, I said: O companion of the Messenger of Allah what is this that you narrate, whereas Allah says: Verily whomsoever Thou shall commit to the Fire, Thou indeed humiliateth him (al-Qur'an, iii. 192); and All those who endeavored to get out of that would be thrown back into it (al-Qur'an, xxxi i. 20)? So what is it that you say? He said: Have you read the Qur'an? I said: Yes. He said: Have you heard about the (exalted) position of Muhammad ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ), i.e. to which Allah would raise, him? I said: Yes. He said: Verily the position of Muhammad ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) is that of great glory and that is by which Allah would bring out whomsoever He would wish to bring out. He then described the Path (the Bridge) and the passing of the people over it, and said: I am afraid I may not have remembered (other things) but this much is still in my memory that people would come out of the Hell after having gone into it, and he said: They would come out of it as if they were the wood of the ebony tree. He (the narrator said: They would enter a river, one or the rivers of Paradise, and would bathe in it, and then come out as if they were (white like) paper. We then turned back and said: Woe be upon you! How can this old man tell a lie against the Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم )? We turned back (from the views of the Khawarij), and by God every one of us abandoned this (band of Khawarij) except one man. A similar statement has been made by Abu Nu'aim.
وَحَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجُ بْنُ الشَّاعِرِ، حَدَّثَنَا الْفَضْلُ بْنُ دُكَيْنٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ، يَعْنِي مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ أَبِي أَيُّوبَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي يَزِيدُ الْفَقِيرُ، قَالَ: كُنْتُ قَدْ شَغَفَنِي رَأْيٌ مِنْ رَأْيِ الْخَوَارِجِ، فَخَرَجْنَا فِي عِصَابَةٍ ذَوِي عَدَدٍ نُرِيدُ أَنْ نَحُجَّ، ثُمَّ نَخْرُجَ عَلَى النَّاسِ، قَالَ: فَمَرَرْنَا عَلَى الْمَدِينَةِ، فَإِذَا جَابِرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ يُحَدِّثُ الْقَوْمَ، جَالِسٌ إِلَى سَارِيَةٍ، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: فَإِذَا هُوَ قَدْ ذَكَرَ الْجَهَنَّمِيِّينَ، قَالَ: فَقُلْتُ لَهُ: يَا صَاحِبَ رَسُولِ اللهِ، مَا هَذَا الَّذِي تُحَدِّثُونَ؟ وَاللهُ يَقُولُ: {إِنَّكَ مَنْ تُدْخِلِ النَّارَ فَقَدْ أَخْزَيْتَهُ} [آل عمران: 192] وَ {كُلَّمَا أَرَادُوا أَنْ يَخْرُجُوا مِنْهَا أُعِيدُوا فِيهَا} [السجدة: 20]، فَمَا هَذَا الَّذِي تَقُولُونَ؟ قَالَ: فَقَالَ: «أَتَقْرَأُ الْقُرْآنَ؟» قُلْتُ: نَعَمْ، قَالَ: «فَهَلْ سَمِعْتَ بِمَقَامِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ - يَعْنِي الَّذِي يَبْعَثُهُ اللهُ فِيهِ -؟» قُلْتُ: نَعَمْ، قَالَ: «فَإِنَّهُ مَقَامُ مُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الْمَحْمُودُ الَّذِي يُخْرِجُ اللهُ بِهِ مَنْ يُخْرِجُ»، قَالَ: ثُمَّ نَعَتَ وَضْعَ الصِّرَاطِ، وَمَرَّ النَّاسِ عَلَيْهِ، - قَالَ: وَأَخَافُ أَنْ لَا أَكُونَ أَحْفَظُ ذَاكَ - قَالَ: غَيْرَ أَنَّهُ قَدْ زَعَمَ أَنَّ قَوْمًا يَخْرُجُونَ مِنَ النَّارِ بَعْدَ أَنْ يَكُونُوا فِيهَا، قَالَ: - يَعْنِي - فَيَخْرُجُونَ كَأَنَّهُمْ عِيدَانُ السَّمَاسِمِ، قَالَ: «فَيَدْخُلُونَ نَهَرًا مِنْ أَنْهَارِ الْجَنَّةِ، فَيَغْتَسِلُونَ فِيهِ، فَيَخْرُجُونَ كَأَنَّهُمُ الْقَرَاطِيسُ»، فَرَجَعْنَا قُلْنَا: وَيْحَكُمْ أَتُرَوْنَ الشَّيْخَ يَكْذِبُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ؟ فَرَجَعْنَا فَلَا وَاللهِ مَا خَرَجَ مِنَّا غَيْرُ رَجُلٍ وَاحِدٍ، أَوْ كَمَا قَالَ: أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ
  م ، یعنی محمد بن ابی ایوب نے کہا : مجھے یزید الفقیر نےحدیث سنائی ، انہوں نے کہا : کہ خارجیوں کے نظریات میں سے ایک بات میرے دل میں گھر کر گئی تھی ۔ ہم ایک جماعت میں نکلے جس کی اچھی خاصی تعداد تھی ۔ ہمارا ارادہ تھا کہ حج کریں اور پھر لوگوں کو خلاف خروج کریں ( جنگ کریں ۔ ) ہم مدینہ سے گزرے تو ہم نےدیکھا کہ حضرت جابر بن عبد اللہ ‌رضی ‌اللہ ‌عنہ ‌ ‌ ( ایک ستون کے پاس بیٹھے ) لوگوں کو رسول اللہﷺ کی احادیث سنا رہے ہیں ، انہوں نے اچانک «الجهميين» ( جہنم سے نکل کر جنت میں پہنچنے والے لوگوں ) کا تذکرہ کیا تو میں ان سے پوچھا : اے رسول اللہ کے ساتھی! یہ آپ کیا بیان کر رہے ہیں ؟ حالانکہ اللہ فرماتا ہے : ’’بے شک جس کو تو نے آگ میں داخل کر دیا اس کو رسوا کر دیا ۔ ‘ ‘ اور : ’’وہ جب بھی اس سے نکلنے کا ارادہ کریں گے ، اسی میں لوٹا دیے جائیں گے ۔ ‘ ‘ تویہ کیا بات ہے جو آپ کہہ رہے ہیں ؟ ( یزیدنے ) کہا : انہوں نے ( جواب میں ) کہا : کیا تم قرآن پڑھتے ہو؟ میں نے عرض کی : ہاں!انہوں نے کہا : کیا تم نے محمدﷺ کے مقام کے بارے میں سنا ہے ، یعنی وہ مقام جس پر قیامت کے دن آپ کومبعوث کیا جائے گا؟ میں نے کہا : ہاں! انہوں نے کہا : بے شک و ہ محمدﷺ کا مقام محمود ہے جس کے ذریعے سے اللہ تعالیٰ ان لوگوں کو جنہیں ( جہنم سے ) نکالنا ہو گا نکالے گا ، پھر انہو ں نے ( جہنم پر ) پل رکھے جانے اور اس پر سے لوگوں کے گزرنے کا منظر بیان کیا ۔ ( یزید نے ) کہا : مجھے ڈر ہے کہ میں اس کو پوری طرح یاد نہیں رکھ سکا ہوں ۔ سوائے اس کے کہ انہوں نے بتایا : کچھ لوگ جہنم میں چلے جانے کے بعد اس سے نکلیں گے ، یعنی انہوں نےکہا : وہ اس طرح نکلیں گے جیسے وہ ’’تلوں ‘ ‘ ( کےپودوں ) کی لکڑیاں ہوں ، وہ جنت کی نہروں میں سے ایک نہر میں داخل ہو ں گے اور اس میں نہائیں گے ، پھر اس میں سے ( کورے ) کاغذوں کی طرح ( ہوکر ) نکلیں گے ، پھر ( یہ حدیث سن کر ) ہم واپس آئے اورہم نے کہا : تم پر افسوس ! کیا تم یہ سمجھتے ہو کہ یہ بوڑھا ( صحابی حضرت جابر ‌رضی ‌اللہ ‌عنہ ‌ ‌ ) رسول اللہ ﷺ پر جھوٹ باندھ رہا ہے ؟ اور ہم نے ( سابقہ رائے سے ) رجوع کر لیا ۔ اللہ کی قسم ! ہم میں سے ایک آدمی کے سوا کسی نے خروج نہ کیا ، یا جس طرح ( کے الفاظ میں ) ابو نعیم نے کہا ۔

sahih-muslim-475

Anas b Malik reported: The Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) said: Allah would gather people on the Day of Resurrection and they would be concerned about it, and Ibn Ubaid said. They would get a Divine inspiration about it, and would say: If we could seek intercession with our Lord, we may be relieved from this predicament of ours. He (the Holy Prophet) said: They would come to Adam andsay, Thou art Adam, the father of mankind. Allah created thee with His own hand and breathed unto thee of His Spirit and commanded the angels and they prostrated before thee. So intercede for us with thy Lords, that He may relieve us from this position of ours. He would say: I am not in a position to do this, and would recall his error, and would fight shy of his Lord on account of that; go to Noah the first messenger (after me) sent by Allah. He (the Holy Prophet) said: So they would come to Noah (peace be upon him). He would say: I am not in a position to do that for you, and recall his fault which he had committed, and would fight shy of his Lord on account of that, (and would say): You better go to Ibrahim (peace be upon him) whom Allah took for a friend. They would come to Ibrahim (peace be upon him) and he would say: I am not in a position to do that for you, and would recall his fault that he had committed and would, therefore, fight shy of his Lord on that account (and would say): You better go to Moses (peace be upon him) with whom Allah conversed and con- ferred Torah upon him. He (the Holy Prophet) said: So they would come to Moses (peace be upon him) He would say: I am not in a position to do that for you, and would recall his fault that he had committed and would fight shy of his Lord on account of that (and would say): You better go to Jesus, the Spirit of Allah and His word He would say: I am not in a position to do that for you; you better go to Muhammad ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ), a servant whose former and later sins have been forgiven. He (the narrator) said: The Messenger or Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) observed: So they would come to me and I would ask the permission of my Lord and it would be granted to me, and when I would see Him, I would fall down in prostration, and He (Allah) would leave me thus as long as He would wish, and then it would be said: O Muhammad, raise your head, say and you would be heard; ask and it would be granted; intercede and intercession would be accepted. Then I would raise my head and extrol my Lord with the praise which my Lord would teach me. I shall then inter- cede, but a limit would be set for me I would bring them out from the Fire and make them enter Paradise (according to the limit). I shall return then ard fall down in pros- tration and Allah would leave me (in that position) as long as He would wish to leave me it would be said: Rise, O Muhammad, say and you would be heard; ask and it would be conferred; intercede and intercession would be granted. I would raise my head and extrol my Lord with praise that He would teach me. I would theft intercede and a limit would be set for me. I would bring them out of the Fire (of Hell) and make them enter Paradise. He (the narrator) said: I do not remember whether he (the Holy Prophet) said at tLe third time or at the fourth time: O my Lord, none has been left in the Fire, but thise restrained by the Holy Qur'an, i e. those who were eternally doomed. Ibn Ubaid said in a narration: Qatada observed: whose everlasting stay was imperative .

Anas reported: The Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) said: The believers would gather on the Day of Resurrection, and they would be concerned about it, or would be made mindful of it (i. e. the trjuble for it), (and the remaining part of the hadith w, ) uld be narrated) like the one transmitted by Abu Uwana, and he said in the hadith: Then I would come for the fourth time, or I would return the fourth time, and would say: O my Lord, no one has been left but he whom the Holy Qur'an has restrained.

sahih-muslim-478

Anas b. Malik reported: Verily the Apostle ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) said: He who professed: There is no god but Allah, would be brought out of the Fire even though he has in his heart virtue equal to the weight of a barley grain. Then he who professed: There is no god but Allah, would come out of the Fire, even though he has in his heart virtue equal to the weight of a wheat grain. He would then bring out from the Fire he who professed: There is no god but Allah, even though he has in his heart virtue equal to the weight of an atom. Ibn Minhal has made an addition (of these words) in his narration: Yazid said: I met Shu'ba and narrated to him this hadith. Shu'ba said: Qatada transmitted to us this hadith from Anas b. Malik who heard it from the Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) with this alteration that he substituted the word Zurra (grain) in place of Zarra (atom). Yazid said: Abu Bistam has made a change in it.

sahih-muslim-479

Ma'bad b. Hilal al 'Anazi reported: We went to Anas b. Malik through Thabit and reached there (his house) while he was offering the forenoon prayer. Thabit sought permission for us and we entered, and he seated Thabit with him on his bedstead. He (Thabit) said to him (Anas b. Malik): O Abu Hamza (kunya of Anas b. Malik), your brothers from among the inhabitants of Basra ask you to narrate to them the hadith of intercession. He said: Muhammad ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) narrated to us: When it would be the Day of Resurrection, some of the people would rush to one another in bewilderment. They would come to Adam and say: Intercede (with your Lord) for your progeny. He would say: I am not fit to do this, but go to Ibrabim (peace be upon him) for he is the Friend of Allah. They would come to Ibrahim, but he would say: I am not fit to do this, but go to Moses, for he is Allah's Interlocutor. They would come to Moses, but he would say: I am not fit to do this, but you should go to Jesus, for he is the Spirit of Allah and His word. They would come to Jesus, and he would say, I am not fit to do this; you better go to Muhammad ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ). They would come to me, and I would say: I am in a position to do that, I would go and ask the permission of my Lord and it would be granted to me. I would then stand before Him and would extol Him with praises which I am not able to do now, but with which Allah would inspire me, then I would fall in prostration and it would be said to me: O Muhammad, raise thy head, and say and it would be listened to; ask and it would be granted, intercede and it would be accepted. I shall say: My Lord, my people, my people It would be said: Go, and bring forth from it (Hell) him who has in his heart faith equal to the weight of a wheat grain or a barley seed. I would go and do that; then I would return to my Lord and extol Him with those praises (taught to me by Allah), then I would fall in prostration. It would be said to me: O Muhammad, raise your head, and say and it would be heard; ask and it would be granted; intercede and intercession would be accepted. So I would say: My people. my people. It would be said to me: Go and take out from it (Hell) him who has in his heart faith equal to the weight of a mustard seed. I would go and do that. I would again return to my Lord and extol Him with those praises. I would then fall in prostration. It would be said to me: O Muhammad, raisevour head: say, and you would be listened to; ask and it would be granted; intercede and intercession would be accepted. I would say: My Lord, my people, my people. It would be said to me: Go, and bring out of the Fire him who has in his heart as much faith as the smallest, smallest, smallest grain of mustard seed. I would go and do that. This is the hadith which Anas narrated to us. We went out of his (house) and when we reached the upper part of Jabban (graveyard) we said: Would that we meet Hasan and salute him and he was hiding in the house of Abu Khalifa. He (Ma'bad b. Hilal, the narrator) said: We went to him and greeted him and we said: O Abu Sa'id, we come from your brother Abu Hamza (kunya of Anas), and we have never heard a hadith like this relating to intercession, which he has narrated to us. He said: Narrate it, we narrated the hadith. He said: Narrate it (still further). We said: He did not (narrate it) before us more than this. He said: He (Anas) had narrated it to us twenty years back, when he was strong and healthy. He has in fact missed something. I cannot make out whether the old man has forgotten or he has (intentionally) avoided to narrate it to you lest you should rely (absolutely) upon it (and abandon doing good deeds). We said to him: Relate that to us, and he laughed and said: There is haste in the nature of man. I did not make mention of it to you but for the fact that I wanted to narrate that to you (and added that the Prophet said): I would then return to my Lord for the fourth time and extol Him with these praises. I would then fall in prostration. It would be said to me: O Muhammad, raise your head: say and it will be listened to; ask and it will be granted; intercede and intercession would be accepted. I would say: O my Lord, permit me regarding him who professed: There is no god but Allah. He (the Lord) would say: That is not for thee or that is not what lies with thee, but by My Honour, Glory, Greatness and Might, I would certainly take him out who professed it: There is no god but Allah. He (the narrator, Ma'bad) said: I hear testimony to the fact that the hadith transmitted to us-by Hasan was heard by him from Anas b. Malik and I can see that he reported it twenty years back, when he was hale and hearty.
