حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ مُوسَى، وَهَارُونُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْبَزَّازُ، قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو دَاوُدَ الطَّيَالِسِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا دَاوُدُ بْنُ أَبِي الْفُرَاتِ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ بُرَيْدَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي الأَسْوَدِ الدِّيلِيِّ، قَالَ قَدِمْتُ الْمَدِينَةَ فَجَلَسْتُ إِلَى عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ فَمَرُّوا بِجَنَازَةٍ فَأَثْنَوْا عَلَيْهَا خَيْرًا فَقَالَ عُمَرُ وَجَبَتْ ‏.‏ فَقُلْتُ لِعُمَرَ وَمَا وَجَبَتْ قَالَ أَقُولُ كَمَا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏

"‏ مَا مِنْ مُسْلِمٍ يَشْهَدُ لَهُ ثَلاَثَةٌ إِلاَّ وَجَبَتْ لَهُ الْجَنَّةُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ قُلْنَا وَاثْنَانِ قَالَ ‏"‏ وَاثْنَانِ ‏"

Abu Al-Aswad Ad-Dill narrated:

"I arrived in Al-Madinah and while I was sitting with Umar bin Al-Khattab they passed by with a funeral, over (a person) whom they were praising with good. Umar said: 'Granted.' I said to Umar: 'What is granted?' He said: 'I said as the Messenger of Allah said: "There is no Muslim about whom three bear witness, except that he is granted Paradise." He said: "And two (as well)." He said: 'We did not ask the Messenger of Allah about one.'"

Al-Mubarakfuri — Tuhfat al-Ahwadhi

قَوْلُهُ : ( مَا مِنْ مُسْلِمٍ يَشْهَدُ لَهُ ثَلَاثَةٌ إِلَّا وَجَبَتْ لَهُ الْجَنَّةُ ) قَالَ الدَّاوُدِيُّ : الْمُعْتَبَرُ فِي ذَلِكَ شَهَادَةُ أَهْلِ الْفَضْلِ وَالصِّدْقِ لَا الْفَسَقَةُ لِأَنَّهُمْ قَدْ يَثْنُونَ عَلَى مَنْ يَكُونُ مِثْلَهُمْ , وَلَا مَنْ بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ الْمَيِّتِ عَدَاوَةٌ ; لِأَنَّ شَهَادَةَ الْعَدُوِّ لَا تُقْبَلُ. قَالَ النَّوَوِيُّ : قَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ مَعْنَى الْحَدِيثِ أَنَّ الثَّنَاءَ بِالْخَيْرِ لِمَنْ أَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ أَهْلُ الْفَضْلِ وَكَانَ ذَلِكَ مُطَابِقًا لِلْوَاقِعِ , فَهُوَ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ. فَإِنْ كَانَ غَيْرَ مُطَابِقٍ فَلَا وَكَذَا عَكْسُهُ. قَالَ وَالصَّحِيحُ أَنَّهُ عَلَى عُمُومِهِ , وَأَنَّ مَنْ مَاتَ مِنْهُمْ فَأَلْهَمَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى ال…
