Hadith of Ya'la ibn Murrah al-Thaqafi (RA) from the Prophet (SAW)

حديث يعلى بن مرة الثقفي (1) عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم

Hadith 509:12

Sulayman ibn Harb narrated to us, Hammad narrated to us, from ‘Asim ibn Bahdalah, from Habib ibn Abi Jubayrah, from Ya‘la ibn Sayabah, that the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, passed by a grave and said: "Indeed, the occupant of this grave is being punished, and it is not for a major [sin]." Then he called for a palm branch and placed it on his grave, and said: "Perhaps it will be lightened for him as long as it remains moist."

حدثنا سليمان بن حرب، حدثنا حماد، عن عاصم بن بهدلة، عن حبيب بن أبي جبيرة، عن يعلى بن سيابة، أن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم مر بقبر فقال: " إن صاحب هذا القبر يعذب في غير كبير " ثم دعا بجريدة، فوضعها على قبره، فقال: " لعله أن يخفف عنه ما دامت رطبة "
