عن عبد الله بن عمرو عن ابي مويهبة مولى رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم قال بعثني رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم من جوف الليل فقال ”يا ابا مويهبة إني قد امرت ان استغفر لاهل البقيع فانطلق معي“ فانطلقت معه فلما وقف بين اظهرهم قال ”السلام عليكم يا اهل المقابر ليهن لكم ما اصبحتم فيه مما اصبح فيه الناس لو تعلمون ما نجاكم الله منه اقبلت الفتن كقطع الليل المظلم يتبع اولها آخرها الآخرة شر من الاولى“ قال ثم اقبل علي فقال ”يا ابا مويهبة إني قد اوتيت مفاتيح خزائن الدنيا والخلد فيها ثم الجنة وخيرت بين ذلك وبين لقاء ربي عز وجل والجنة“ قال قلت بابي وامي فخذ مفاتيح الدنيا والخلد فيها ثم الجنة قال ”لا والله يا ابا مويهبة لقد اخترت لقاء ربي عز وجل والجنة“ ثم استغفر لاهل البقيع ثم انصرف فبدئ رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم في وجعه الذي قبضه الله عز وجل فيه حين اصبح
Mawla-e-Rasool Sayyiduna Abu Muwayhibah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: He says, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) woke me up at midnight and said: "Abu Muwayhibah! I have been commanded to pray for forgiveness for the people of Baqi' graveyard, so come with me." I set out with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him and his family). When he arrived there and stood among them, he said: "O inhabitants of the graves! Peace be upon you. Congratulations to you for the state you are in, compared to the conditions people are now facing. If only you knew what Allah has saved you from. Trials are coming one after another like the dark portions of the night, each subsequent trial worse than the previous one." After this, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) turned to me and said: "Abu Muwayhibah! I have been given the treasures of the world and everlastingness in it, and after that Paradise, and I have been given the choice to choose between the world or meeting my Lord and Paradise." Abu Muwayhibah says: I said, "May my parents be sacrificed for you! O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him and his family), choose the treasures of the world and everlastingness in it, and after that Paradise." The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) said: "Abu Muwayhibah! By Allah! No, I have chosen to meet my Lord and Paradise." After that, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) prayed for forgiveness for the people of Baqi', and then returned. The next morning, the illness of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) began, in which Allah, the Exalted, took him from this world.

(Second chain) It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Muwayhibah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was commanded to pray for the people of the Baqi' graveyard. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) prayed for them three times in one night. When the second night came, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Abu Muwayhibah! Prepare my mount." So the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) mounted his ride and I walked on foot until the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) reached the people of Baqi'. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) dismounted and I held the mount. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) stood there and said: "O people of Baqi'! Congratulations to you for the state you are in. Here, tribulations are coming like pieces of a dark night; each subsequent tribulation is harsher than the previous one. Therefore, congratulations to you for the state you are in."
