Musnad Ahmad 268 (Book 2, Hadith 181) #33956
Consequences of Lamenting

SUMMARY: The hadith is about the consequences of lamenting for someone who has passed away.

It was narrated from Anas that: 'Umar bin al-Khattab said, when Hafsah lamented for him: O Hafsah did you not hear the Messenger of Allah say: "The one who is lamented for will be tormented'? And Suhaib lamented for him, and 'Umar said: O Suhaib, do you not know that 'the one who is lamented for will be tormented'?
حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا ثَابِتٌ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، أَنَّ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ، رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ لَمَّا عَوَّلَتْ عَلَيْهِ حَفْصَةُ فَقَالَ يَا حَفْصَةُ أَمَا سَمِعْتِ النَّبِيَّ يَقُولُ الْمُعَوَّلُ عَلَيْهِ يُعَذَّبُ قَالَ وَعَوَّلَ صُهَيْبٌ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ يَا صُهَيْبُ أَمَا عَلِمْتَ أَنَّ الْمُعَوَّلَ عَلَيْهِ يُعَذَّبُ‏.‏
