Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: Once, we buried someone in the company of the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him). When we finished, the Prophet (peace be upon him) set out to return, and we also returned with him. When we reached the middle of the road, a woman was coming from the front. When she came near, it was Lady Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her). The Prophet (peace be upon him) asked her: "O Fatimah! Why have you come out of your house?" She replied: "O Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him)! I had gone to the house of those people to offer my condolences for their deceased." The Prophet (peace be upon him) asked her: "Perhaps you also went with the people to Kuda (the graveyard)?" She replied: "I seek refuge with Allah! I have heard you (peace be upon him) instruct about this (so how could I go there)?" The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "If you had gone with them to Kuda, you would not have seen Paradise until your grandfather—that is, your father's father—saw it." The narrator says: I asked my teacher: "What is meant by Kuda?" He replied: "The graveyard." (Imam Ibn Hibban, may Allah have mercy on him, says:): The Prophet's (peace be upon him) statement to Lady Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her) that "If you had gone with them to Kuda, you would not have seen Paradise," means: You would not have seen that high rank of Paradise where those people enter who have not committed anything from which the Prophet (peace be upon him) has prohibited. The reason is: Lady Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her) was already aware of the Prophet's (peace be upon him) prohibition regarding this, and Paradise has many ranks, not just one. And a polytheist will not enter Paradise at all—neither the highest rank of Paradise, nor the lowest, nor the middle.
