Hadith of Abu Ayyub al-Ansari (RA)

حديث أبي أيوب الأنصاري

Hadith 1060:63

Ibn Numayr narrated to us, from al-A‘mash, who said: I heard Abu Dhabyan and Ya‘la. Al-A‘mash narrated to us, from Abu Dhabyan, who said: Abu Ayyub went on a military expedition to the Byzantines and became ill. When he was near death, he said: "When I die, carry me, and when you line up against the enemy, bury me beneath your feet. And I will tell you a hadith I heard from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him); were it not for my current state, I would not have told it to you. I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) saying: 'Whoever dies without associating anything with Allah shall enter Paradise.'"

حدثنا ابن نمير، عن الأعمش، قال: سمعت أبا ظبيان، ويعلى، حدثنا الأعمش، عن أبي ظبيان، قال: غزا أبو أيوب الروم فمرض فلما حضر قال: إذا أنا مت فاحملوني ، فإذا صاففتم العدو فادفنوني تحت أقدامكم، وسأحدثكم حديثا سمعته من رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم لولا حالي هذا ما حدثتكموه سمعت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم يقول: " من مات لا يشرك بالله شيئا دخل الجنة "
