It is narrated from Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) that she said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) supplicating in some of his prayers: "O Allah, make my reckoning an easy reckoning." When he ((peace and blessings be upon him)) finished the prayer, I said: O Messenger of Allah, what is meant by an easy reckoning? He ((peace and blessings be upon him)) said: "That the servant's record of deeds is looked at and he is then pardoned. O Aishah, whoever is cross-examined in his reckoning (on that day) is ruined. And whatever affliction befalls a believer, Allah makes it an expiation for his sins, even the thorn that pricks him." This hadith is sahih on the condition of Muslim, but the two of them (Imam Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it with this wording. They only agreed upon the narration of Ibn Abi Mulaykah from Aishah, in which the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever is cross-examined in the reckoning will be punished."
