English narration
Narrated by عبد الله بن العباس القرشي
Narrated Ibn Abbas: The Prophet ﷺ passed by two graves. He said: Both (the dead) are being punished, but they are not being punished for a major (sin). One did not safeguard himself from urine. The other carriedtales. He then called for a fresh twig and split it into two parts and planted one part on each grave and said: Perhaps their punishment may be mitigated as long as the twigs remain fresh. Another version of Hannad has: "One of them did not cover himself while urinating. " This version does not have the words: "He did not safeguard himself from urine. "

حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ ، وَهَنَّادُ بْنُ السَّرِيِّ ، قَالَا : حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ مُجَاهِدًا يُحَدِّثُ ، عَنْ طَاوُسٍ ، عَنْ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، قَالَ : مَرَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَى قَبْرَيْنِ ، فَقَالَ : "
إِنَّهُمَا يُعَذَّبَانِ وَمَا يُعَذَّبَانِ فِي كَبِيرٍ ، أَمَّا هَذَا فَكَانَ لَا يَسْتَنْزِهُ مِنَ الْبَوْلِ ، وَأَمَّا هَذَا فَكَانَ يَمْشِي بِالنَّمِيمَةِ ، ثُمَّ دَعَا بِعَسِيبٍ رَطْبٍ ، فَشَقَّهُ بِاثْنَيْنِ ، ثُمَّ غَرَسَ عَلَى هَذَا وَاحِدًا وَعَلَى هَذَا وَاحِدًا ، وَقَالَ : لَعَلَّهُ يُخَفَّفُ عَنْهُمَا مَا لَمْ يَيْبَسَا
" ، قَالَ هَنَّادٌ : يَسْتَتِرُ مَكَانَ يَسْتَنْزِهُ .
