یا رسولَ الله آ کر قبر روشن کیجئے                               ذات بے شک آپ کی تو مَنبَعِ انوار ہے

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب       صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلٰى مُحَمَّد

20. Reward for not afflicting people

Sayyiduna Abu Kaahil رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ has narrated that one who abstains from troubling people, Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ will save him from the trouble of grave.

(Al-Mu’jam-ul-Kabeer, vol. 81, pp. 163, Hadees 829)

21. Sadaqah removes heat of the grave

Sayyiduna ‘Uqbah رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ has narrated that the Beloved and Blessed Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم said: Indeed, Sadaqah of a person removes heat from his grave and on the Day of Judgement, a true Muslim will be under the shadow of his Sadaqah. (Al-Mu’jam-ul-Kabeer, vol. 17, pp. 286, Hadees 788)

Knowledge will remain associated with you in the grave

The Greatest and Holiest Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم has said: When an Islamic scholar dies, his knowledge remains linked to him in some shape or form until the Day of Judgement, and it keeps the insects of this world away. (Sharh-us-Sudoor, pp. 851)

Reward of teaching religious knowledge to one’s offspring

Once Sayyidunā ‘Īsā عَـلٰى نَبِـيِّـنَا وَ عَـلَيْـهِ الـصَّلٰوة ُ وَالـسَّلَام passed by a grave and noticed that the person who was buried there was being punished. After a while, when he passed by the same grave, he saw that the grave was shining from the inside, and Divine mercy was being showered upon it. Astonished, Sayyidunā ‘Īsā عَـلٰى نَبِـيِّـنَا وَ عَـلَيْـهِ الـصَّلٰوة ُ وَالـسَّلَام requested in the court of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ that he be informed of the secret behind this. Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ said, ‘O ‘Īsā (عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلَام)! This person was being punished because he was a great sinner.  When he died, he left his wife pregnant who gave birth to a baby boy. Today, his boy was sent to a Madrasah where the teacher made him recite بِسۡـمِ اللّٰه. I felt shy to punish this person who is in the earth, when his son is mentioning My name upon the earth.’
