Authentic 3 scholars’ grades Sunan an-Nasa'i 2066

Narrator:Ā’ishah

أَخْبَرَنَا هَنَّادٌ، عَنْ أَبِي مُعَاوِيَةَ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ شَقِيقٍ، عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، دَخَلَتْ يَهُودِيَّةٌ عَلَيْهَا فَاسْتَوْهَبَتْهَا شَيْئًا فَوَهَبَتْ لَهَا عَائِشَةُ فَقَالَتْ أَجَارَكِ اللَّهُ مِنْ عَذَابِ الْقَبْرِ ‏.‏ قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ فَوَقَعَ فِي نَفْسِي مِنْ ذَلِكَ حَتَّى جَاءَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لَهُ فَقَالَ ‏

"‏ إِنَّهُمْ لَيُعَذَّبُونَ فِي قُبُورِهِمْ عَذَابًا تَسْمَعُهُ الْبَهَائِمُ ‏"

It was narrated from 'Aishah that:

a Jewish woman came to her and asked her to give her something, so 'Aishah gave her something, and she said: "May Allah protect you from the torment of the grave." 'Aishah said:" She made me worried, until the Messenger of Allah came and I mentioned that to him. He said: 'They are tormented in their graves with a torment that the animals hear."'

Al-Sindi — Hashiyat al-Sindi on Sunan al-Nasa'i

قَوْله ( دَخَلَتْ يَهُودِيَّة عَلَيْهَا ) الظَّاهِر أَنَّ هَذِهِ الْوَاقِعَة غَيْرُ الْأُولَى وَهِيَ مُتَأَخِّرَة عَنْهَا فَهَذِهِ الْوَاقِعَة كَانَتْ بَعْد أَنْ أُوحِيَ إِلَيْهِ وَأَمَّا قَوْلهَا دَخَلَتْ عَلَيْهَا عَجُوزَتَانِ إِلَخْ فَذَاكَ عَيْن هَذِهِ الْوَاقِعَة إِلَّا أَنَّهُ وَقَعَ الِاقْتِصَار عَلَى ذِكْرِ الْوَاحِدَةِ أَحْيَانًا وَجَاءَ ذِكْرُهُمَا أُخْرَى.…
