Sahih Muslim 2871a (Book 53, Hadith 88) #14272
Steadfastness for Believers

SUMMARY: This hadith explains that those who believe in Allah and His Prophet Muhammad will be granted steadfastness in this world and the hereafter.

Al-Bara' b. 'Azib reported Allah's Apostle as saying: This verse: "Allah grants steadfastness to those who believe with firm word," was revealed in connection with the torment of the grave. It would be said to him: Who is your Lord? And he would say: Allah is my Lord and Muhammad is my Apostle , and that is (what is implied) by the words of Allah, the Exalted: "Allah keeps steadfast those who believe with firm word in this world and in the Hereafter".
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارِ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ الْعَبْدِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ بْنِ مَرْثَدٍ، عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ عُبَيْدَةَ، عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ بْنِ عَازِبٍ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏"‏ ‏{‏ يُثَبِّتُ اللَّهُ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا بِالْقَوْلِ الثَّابِتِ‏}‏ قَالَ ‏"‏ نَزَلَتْ فِي عَذَابِ الْقَبْرِ فَيُقَالُ لَهُ مَنْ رَبُّكَ فَيَقُولُ رَبِّيَ اللَّهُ وَنَبِيِّيَ مُحَمَّدٌ ‏.‏ فَذَلِكَ قَوْلُهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ ‏{‏ يُثَبِّتُ اللَّهُ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا بِالْقَوْلِ الثَّابِتِ فِي الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا وَفِي الآخِرَةِ‏}‏

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith explains that those who believe in Allah and His Messenger, Prophet Muhammad ﷺ will be granted steadfastness both in this world and the hereafter. The verse mentioned is from Surah al-Hajj 22:17 which states “Allah grants steadfastness to those who believe with firm word”. This means that if a person is asked about their Lord or faith while being tested during the torment of the grave, they should have strong faith and belief so they can answer confidently with “Allah is my Lord and Muhammad is my Apostle”. Thus, having strong faith will grant them steadfastness even when faced with difficult tests such as the torment of the grave.
