And for some of the followers of the Messenger, this is also the case, and it has been witnessed with the naked eye (Clarification that some people are not martyrs or prophets, but the earth does not consume them, and mention of a story that occurred in Unayzah)
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh :"And for some of the followers of the Messenger, this is also the case, and it has been witnessed with the naked eye"
And for some of the followers of the Messenger, this means that the earth does not consume their bodies, yes.
"And it has been witnessed with the naked eye"
That is, they saw this with their own eyes that the earth does not consume some people, and they are not among the martyrs and they are not among the prophets, but Allah may honor a person so that the earth does not consume him.
Some people told me that they were in this town, in Unayzah, digging for the town's wall, and that they came across a grave. When the grave was opened, a scent of musk came out of it, unlike any other, Glory be to Allah! They found a shaykh whom the earth had not consumed; his beard had been dyed with henna, and it was dry like dried meat, while his shroud had turned to ash. They were amazed by it and stopped, and they came to the shaykh, and I think it was Abdullah ibn Abd al-Rahman al-Babtin (may Allah have mercy on him), because he was the judge in this town. They came to him to inform him, and he said to them: "Return the grave to its state and shift the trench of the wall to the right or to the left." So they did. This is something like what Ibn al-Qayyim said: it has been witnessed with the naked eye that some people are not consumed by the earth, and this is among the karamah (a miracle granted to a righteous person) of Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) for a person.
