Sahih al-Bukhari 6129 (Book 80, Hadith 63)
their graves,” but I thought they were telling a lie and did not believe them in the beginning. When
they went away and the Prophet (ﷺ) entered upon me, I said, “O Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)! Two old ladies..” and
told him the whole story. He said, “They told the truth; the dead are really punished, to the extent that
all the animals hear (the sound resulting from) their punishment.” Since then I always saw him
seeking refuge with Allah from the punishment of the grave in his prayers.
“ صَدَقَتَا، إِنَّهُمْ يُعَذَّبُونَ عَذَابًا تَسْمَعُهُ الْبَهَائِمُ كُلُّهَا ”. فَمَا رَأَيْتُهُ بَعْدُ فِي صَلاَةٍ إِلاَّ تَعَوَّذَ مِنْ عَذَابِ الْقَبْرِ.
