Explanation of the hadith of Ibn 'Abbas, who said: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) passed by two graves and said, "Indeed, they are being punished, and they are not being punished for something great. As for one of them, he used not to...

The Shaykh : And there are specific hadiths regarding the punishment of the grave for a specific matter. Among them is the hadith of 'Abdullah ibn 'Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) The sentence here is emphatic. Who knows the types of emphasis in it? With your right hand, may Allah reward you!
The student: In and Lam.

The Shaykh : Well done, that is correct. Rest meaning in a matter that is not difficult for them, but rather in an easy matter Be aware that these are among the causes of the punishment of the grave. Not cleaning oneself from urine and not performing istibra' (ensuring cleanliness) from it are among the causes of the punishment of the grave. If a splash of urine hits your garment and you are negligent about it and do not purify it, this is among the causes of the punishment of the grave. If you relieve yourself and do not perform istinja' (cleaning) in the prescribed manner with water or stones, this is among the causes of the punishment of the grave. Now, if one does not clean himself from feces? Is it like urine or not? It is like it, without a doubt, there is no difference; both are najasah (ritually impure). Namimah (talebearing) is conveying a message from one person to another in order to cause corruption between them. We spoke about it the night before last, so namimah is among the causes of the punishment of the grave, may Allah protect us. La'alla indicates hope, meaning I hope that Allah will lighten their punishment as long as they do not dry out, meaning until they dry out. This is a type of intercession by the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) for these two graves that are being punished.
