Sahih Muslim: Book 2, Hadith 33

Salim, the freed slave of Shaddad, said: I came to ‘A’isha, the wife of the Prophet (ﷺ), on the day when Sa’db. Abi Waqqas died. ‘Abd al-Rahman b. Abu Bakr also came there and he performed ablution in her presence. She (Hadrat ‘A’isha) said: Abd al-Rahman, complete the ablution as I heard the Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) say: Woe to the heels because of hell-fire.

حَدَّثَنَا هَارُونُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الأَيْلِيُّ، وَأَبُو الطَّاهِرِ، وَأَحْمَدُ بْنُ عِيسَى، قَالُوا أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ وَهْبٍ، عَنْ مَخْرَمَةَ بْنِ بُكَيْرٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ سَالِمٍ، مَوْلَى شَدَّادٍ قَالَ دَخَلْتُ عَلَى عَائِشَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَوْمَ تُوُفِّيَ سَعْدُ بْنُ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ فَدَخَلَ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ أَبِي بَكْرٍ فَتَوَضَّأَ عِنْدَهَا فَقَالَتْ يَا عَبْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ أَسْبِغِ الْوُضُوءَ فَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُ ‏
“‏ وَيْلٌ لِلأَعْقَابِ مِنَ النَّارِ ‏”‏ ‏.‏
