Hadith of Abu Razin al-'Uqayli Laqit ibn 'Amir al-Muntafiq (RA)
حديث أبي رزين العقيلي لقيط بن عامر المنتفق
Hadith 289:11
Bahz narrated to us, he said: Hammad ibn Salamah narrated to us, he said: Ya'la ibn 'Ata' informed us, from Waki' ibn Hudus, from his paternal uncle Abu Razin al-'Uqayli, that he said: "O Messenger of Allah, does every one of us see his Lord, the Mighty and Majestic, on the Day of Resurrection? And what is the sign of that in His creation?" The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said: "Does not every one of you look at the moon, being alone with it?" He said: "Yes." He said: "Then Allah is greater." He said: I said: "O Messenger of Allah, how does Allah bring the dead to life? And what is the sign of that in His creation?" He said: "Have you not passed by a valley of your people that was barren?" He said: "Yes." He said: "Have you not passed by it shaking with greenery?" He said: I said: "Yes." He said: "Then you passed by it barren?" He said: "Yes." He said: "Thus does Allah bring the dead to life, and that is His sign in His creation."
حدثنا بهز، قال: حدثنا حماد بن سلمة، قال: أخبرنا يعلى بن عطاء، عن وكيع بن حدس، عن عمه أبي رزين العقيلي أنه قال: يا رسول الله، أكلنا يرى ربه عز وجل يوم القيامة؟ وما آية ذلك في خلقه؟ فقال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: " أليس كلكم ينظر إلى القمر مخليا به؟ " قال: بلى، قال: " فالله أعظم " قال: قلت: يا رسول الله كيف يحيي الله الموتى؟ وما آية ذلك في خلقه؟ قال: " أما مررت بوادي أهلك محلا؟ " قال: بلى، قال: " أما مررت به يهتز خضرا؟ " قال: قلت: بلى قال: " ثم مررت به محلا؟ " قال: بلى قال: " فكذلك يحيي الله الموتى وذلك آيته في خلقه "
