The questioner : From 'Abd al-Rahman ibn Samurah ibn Jundub, who said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came out to us and said: , then he mentioned a long passage regarding the fact that Ibn al-Qayyim, in his book "al-Wabil al-Sayyib," or with the knowledge that Ibn al-Qayyim, in his book "al-Wabil al-Sayyib," said: "And Shaykh al-Islam held the status of this hadith in high regard."
The Shaykh : I am not recalling it well right now, but if this hadith is the one narrated by al-Bazzar, then its chain of narration is not valid. However, if the narrator or the one who extracted it is other than al-Bazzar, I do not have an answer that comes to mind.
I saw something wonderful last night; I saw a man from my Ummah to whom the Angel of Death came to take his soul, so his piety toward his parents came and turned the Angel of Death back from him.
إني رأيت البارحة عجبًا ؛ رأيت رجلًا من أمتي أتاه ملك الموت ليقبضَ روحه ، فجاءه برُّه بوالدَيه فردَّ ملك الموت عنهThe Shaykh : I am not recalling it well right now, but if this hadith is the one narrated by al-Bazzar, then its chain of narration is not valid. However, if the narrator or the one who extracted it is other than al-Bazzar, I do not have an answer that comes to mind.
