Hazrat Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that there was a man who was previously a Christian, then he entered Islam. He had learned Surah Al-Baqarah and Al-Imran, and he became the scribe of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). But then that man became an apostate and reverted to Christianity, and he began to say that Muhammad (peace be upon him) knows nothing except what I have written for him. Then, by the command of Allah Almighty, he died, and his people buried him. When morning came, they saw that his corpse had come out of the grave and was lying on the ground. The Christian people said that this is the work of Muhammad (peace be upon him) and his companions. Since he had left their religion, they dug up his grave and threw the body out. So they dug another grave, which was much deeper, but when morning came, again the body was outside. This time too, they said the same thing, that this is the work of Muhammad (peace be upon him) and his companions; since he had left their religion, they dug up his grave and threw the body out. Then they dug a grave as deep as they possibly could and put him inside it, but when morning came, again the body was outside. Now they became convinced that this was not the work of any human being (rather, this corpse was seized by the punishment of Allah), so they left it lying on the ground.
