حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبَّادُ بْنُ عَبَّادٍ الْمُهَلَّبِيُّ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏"‏ الْمَيِّتُ يُعَذَّبُ بِبُكَاءِ أَهْلِهِ عَلَيْهِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ فَقَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ يَرْحَمُهُ اللَّهُ لَمْ يَكْذِبْ وَلَكِنَّهُ وَهِمَ إِنَّمَا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم لِرَجُلٍ مَاتَ يَهُودِيًّا ‏

"‏ إِنَّ الْمَيِّتَ لَيُعَذَّبُ وَإِنَّ أَهْلَهُ لَيَبْكُونَ عَلَيْهِ ‏"

Yahya bin Abdur-Rahman narrated from Ibn Umar that:

The Prophet said: "The deceased is punished for the crying of his family over him." So, Aishah said: "May Allah have mercy upon him. He has not lied, but he is mistaken. It is only that the Messenger of Allah said about a Jewish man who died: 'The deceased is being punished and his family is crying over him.'"

قَوْلُهُ : ( فَقَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ يَرْحَمُهُ اللَّهُ لَمْ يَكْذِبْ وَلَكِنَّهُ وَهِمَ إِلَخْ ) وَكَذَلِكَ حَكَمَتْ عَائِشَةُ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا عَلَى عُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَيْضًا بِالتَّخْطِئَةِ , فَفِي رِوَايَةِ اِبْنِ عَبَّاسٍ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ عِنْدَ الْبُخَارِيِّ وَمُسْلِمٍ : فَقَالَتْ يَرْحَمُ اللَّهُ عُمَرَ وَاَللَّهِ مَا حَدَّثَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ " إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَيُعَذَّبُ الْمُؤْمِنَ بِبُكَاءِ أَهْلِهِ عَلَيْهِ " وَلَكِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ " إِنَّ اللَّهَ لِيَزِيدَ الْكَافِرَ عَذَابًا بِبُكَاءِ أَهْلِهِ عَلَيْهِ " , وَقَالَتْ حَسْبُكُمْ الْقُرْآنُ { وَلَا تَزِرُ وَازِرَةٌ وِزْرَ أُخْرَى } قَالَ الْحَافِظ…
