النضر بن سويد عن درست عن أبي المغرا عن أبي بصير قال: لا اعلمه ذكره الا عن أبي جعفر عليه السلام قال: إذا أدخل الله أهل الجنة الجنة وأهل النار النار جيئ بالموت في صورة كبش حتى يوقف بين الجنة والنار قال: ثم ينادى مناد يسمع أهل الدارين جميعا: يا أهل الجنة يا أهل النار فإذا سمعوا الصوت أقبلوا قال: فيقال لهم: أتدرون ما هذا؟ هذا هو الموت الذي كنتم تخافون منه في الدنيا قال فيقولون أهل الجنة: اللهم لا تدخل الموت علينا قال: ويقول أهل النار: اللهم ادخل الموت علينا قال: ثم يذبح كما تذبح الشاة قال: ثم ينادى مناد: لا موت أبدا أيقنوا بالخلود قال: فيفرح أهل الجنة فرحا لو كان أحد يومئذ يموت من فرح لماتوا قال: ثم قرأ هذه الآية: (أفما نحن بميتين الا موتتنا الأولى وما نحن بمعذبين ان هذا لهو الفوز العظيم لمثل هذا فليعمل العاملون) قال: ويشهق أهل النار شهقة لو كان أحد ميتا يموت من شهيق لماتوا وهو: قول الله عز وجل: (وأنذرهم يوم الحسرة إذ قضى الامر).
6.Al-Naḍr ibn Suwayd narrated from Durust, from Abū al-Maghrāʾ, from Abū Baṣīr who said, “I do not know of it being mentioned except by Abū Jaʿfar (a) who said, ‘When Allah places the people of Paradise in Paradise and the people of Hell in Hell, death will be brought in the form of a ram until it is kept standing between Paradise and Hell… Then a caller will call out and the inhabitants of both abodes will hear him: “O people of Paradise! O people of Hell!” When they hear the voice, they will come forward. They will be asked, “Do you know what this is? This is the death that you used to fear in the world.” So the people of Paradise will say, “O Allah, do not allow death to enter upon us!” And the people of Hell will say, “O Allah, allow death to enter upon us!” Then it will be slaughtered the way a sheep is slaughtered. A caller will then call out: “There is no [more] death forever! Be certain of eternal life!” So the people of Paradise will rejoice in such a manner that if one could die out of joy, they would die on that day.’ Then he recited these verses: [Then he will ask his fellow believers,] “Are we [truly] never going to die, except our first death, nor suffer punishment [like others]? This is truly the ultimate triumph!” For the likes of this should everyone strive (Q39:58-60). He [then] said, ‘And the people of Hell will moan in such a manner that ifone could die of sorrow, they would die. And this is [referred to in] the verse wherein Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, says: And warn them of the Day of Regret, when all matters will be settled… (Q19:39).’”
