حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو رَجَاءٍ، قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ أَبِي الْجَعْدِ، عَنْ ثَوْبَانَ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏"‏ مَنْ

مَاتَ وَهُوَ بَرِيءٌ مِنْ ثَلاَثٍ الْكِبْرِ وَالْغُلُولِ وَالدَّيْنِ دَخَلَ الْجَنَّةَ ‏"

Al-Mubarakfuri — Tuhfat al-Ahwadhi

قَوْلُهُ : ( وَهُوَ بَرِيءٌ مِنْ الْكِبْرِ ) بِكَسْرِ الْكَافِ وَسُكُونِ الْمُوَحَّدَةِ وَبِالرَّاءِ ( وَالدَّيْنِ ) بِفَتْحِ الدَّالِ الْمُهْمَلَةِ وَسُكُونِ التَّحْتِيَّةِ ( دَخَلَ الْجَنَّةَ ) يُفْهَمُ مِنْهُ أَنَّ مَنْ مَاتَ وَهُوَ لَيْسَ بَرِيئًا مِنْ هَذِهِ الثَّلَاثِ لَا يَدْخُلُ الْجَنَّةَ. قَوْلُهُ : ( وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ وَزَيْدِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ الْجُهَنِيِّ ) أَمَّا حَدِيثُ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ فَأَخْرَجَهُ الشَّيْخَانِ. وَأَمَّا حَدِيثُ زَيْدِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ فَأَخْرَجَهُ مَالِكٌ وَأَحْمَدُ وَأَبُو دَاوُدَ وَالنَّسَائِيُّ وَابْنُ مَاجَهْ. اِعْلَمْ أَنَّ التِّرْمِذِيَّ لَمْ يَحْكُمْ عَلَى حَدِيثِ ثَوْبَانَ هَذَا بِشَيْءٍ مِنْ الصِّحَّةِ وَالضَّعْفِ , وَقَدْ صَحَّحَهُ الْحَا…

Weak Jami' at-Tirmidhi 1573

That the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "Whoever's soul departs from his body while he is free of three: Kanz (buried treasure), Ghulul, and debt, then he will enter paradise." This is how Sa'eed narrated it: "Kanz" while Abu 'Awanah said in his narration: "Kibr" and he did not mention "from Ma'dan"…

فَارَقَ الرُّوحُ الْجَسَدَ وَهُوَ بَرِيءٌ مِنْ ثَلاَثٍ الْكَنْزِ وَالْغُلُولِ وَالدَّيْنِ دَخَلَ الْجَنَّةَ ‏"

Narrated by Thawbān

Differing grades Sunan Ibn Majah 2412

“Anyone whose soul leaves his body and he is free of three things, will enter Paradise: Arrogance, stealing from the spoils of war, and debt.”

"‏ مَنْ فَارَقَ الرُّوحُ الْجَسَدَ وَهُوَ بَرِيءٌ مِنْ ثَلاَثٍ دَخَلَ الْجَنَّةَ مِنَ الْكِبْرِ وَالْغُلُولِ وَالدَّيْنِ ‏"
