Translation
Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Muhammad Bin Al Husayn, from Abdul Rahman Bin Abu Hashim, from Salim, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘There is none from a place of a grave except it speaks three times every day: ‘I am a house of the dust! I am a house of affliction! I am a house of the vermins!’ So when a believing servant enters (into it), it says: ‘You are most welcome! By Allah<sup>azwj</sup>! I used to love when you were walking upon my back, then why should I not love you when you are into my belly. So you shall soon see that’. So it expands for him to the extent of his vision, and there is opened for him a Door from which he can see his seat from the Paradise. He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘And there comes out from that, a man such that his eyes had never seen before at all more handsome than him, so he is saying, ‘O servant of Allah<sup>azwj</sup>! I have not seen anyone more handsome than you, at all’. So he is saying, ‘I am your good opinion which you were upon, and your righteous deeds which you were doing’. Then he takes his soul and places it in the Paradise where he can see his house. Then he says to him, ‘Sleep with delighted eyes’. So the aroma from the Paradise does not cease to hit his body, renewing its pleasure and its fragrance until he is Resurrected’. He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘And when the Infidel enters (the grave), it says: ‘You are not welcome at all!. But, by Allah<sup>azwj</sup>, I used to hate you walking upon my back, so it is more so when you enter into my belly? You shall soon see that (how much I hate you)’. So it squeezes upon him and makes him into decayed dust, and he returns to what he used to be, and there is opened for him a Door to the Fire, so he sees his seat from the Fire’. Then he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Then there comes out from it the ugliest man ever seen at all, so he is saying, ‘O servant of Allah<sup>azwj</sup>! Who are you? I have not seen anything more ugly than you’. So he is saying: ‘I am your evil deeds which you were performing and your bad opinion’. He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Then he seizes his soul and places it where he can see his seat from the Fire. Then he does not cease to be hit by the blowings’ of the Fire hitting his body, and he finds its pain and its heat in his body until he is Resurrected, and makes his soul to be overcome by ninety-nine dragons ravaging him, there not being a dragon who would blow upon the surface of the earth, and anything would grow (after it)’.
