It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Musa Ash'ari (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whenever a Muslim dies, Allah Almighty admits a Jew or a Christian into Hell in his place. Abu Burdah narrated the previous hadith to Hazrat Umar bin Abdul Aziz (may Allah have mercy on him), so he asked Abu Burdah to swear by the name of Allah, besides whom there is no deity, that his father narrated this hadith and he heard it from the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and Saeed bin Abi Burdah does not contradict what 'Awf says.
