قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) مَرَّ عِيسَى ابْنُ مَرْيَمَ ( عليه السلام ) بِقَبْرٍ يُعَذَّبُ صَاحِبُهُ ثُمَّ مَرَّ بِهِ مِنْ قَابِلٍ فَإِذَا هُوَ لَا يُعَذَّبُ فَقَالَ يَا رَبِّ مَرَرْتُ بِهَذَا الْقَبْرِعَامَ أَوَّلَ فَكَانَ يُعَذَّبُ وَ مَرَرْتُ بِهِ الْعَامَ فَإِذَا هُوَ لَيْسَ يُعَذَّبُ فَأَوْحَى اللَّهُ إِلَيْهِ أَنَّهُ أَدْرَكَ لَهُ وَلَدٌ صَالِحٌ فَأَصْلَحَ طَرِيقاً وَ آوَى يَتِيماً فَلِهَذَا غَفَرْتُ لَهُ بِمَا فَعَلَ ابْنُهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) مِيرَاثُ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ مِنْ عَبْدِهِ الْمُؤْمِنِ وَلَدٌ يَعْبُدُهُ مِنْ بَعْدِهِ ثُمَّ تَلَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) آيَةَ زَكَرِيَّا ( عليه السلام ) رَبِّ فَهَبْ لِي مِنْ لَدُنْكَ وَلِيًّا. يَرِثُنِي وَ يَرِثُ مِنْ آلِ يَعْقُوبَ وَ اجْعَلْهُ رَبِّ رَضِيًّا .
Translation
A number of our companions, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Khalid, from Shareef Bin Sabiq, from Al Fazl Bin Abu Qurrat, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘Rasool-Allah<sup>saww</sup> said: ‘Isa<sup>as</sup> Ibn Maryam<sup>as</sup> passed by a grave whose inhabitant was being Punished. Then he<sup>as</sup> passed by it afterwards so he was not being Punished. So he<sup>as</sup> said: ‘O Lord<sup>azwj</sup>! I<sup>as</sup> passed by this grave the first year, so he was being Punished, and I<sup>as</sup> passed by it this year and he is not being Punished’. So Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Revealed unto him<sup>as</sup>: “A righteous son of his became an adult, so he repaired a road, and sheltered an orphan, thus it is due to this I<sup>azwj</sup> Forgave him for what his son had done’. Then Rasool-Allah<sup>saww</sup> said: ‘(It is) an inheritance of Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Mighty and Majestic from a believing servant to be a son who would worship Him<sup>azwj</sup> from after him’. Then Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> recited a Verse of Zakariyya<sup>as</sup> <span class="ibTxt"><a href="/#/books/quran:19#h5"><a href="/books/quran:19#h5">[19:5]</a></a> (Lord) therefore Grant me from Yourself an heir <a href="/#/books/quran:19#h6"><a href="/books/quran:19#h6">[19:6]</a></a> Who would inherit me and inherit from the Progeny of Yaqoub, and Make him, my Lord, one with whom You are well Pleased</span>’.
