Would Fire
Consume the Marks of Postration?
Abu Hurairah
reported: "The Messenger of Allah said: "There will be a bridge laid across
Hell." And I will be the first to pass over it. The only invocation that the
Messengers then would say is: "O Allah safeguards us". "It is a slippery
(bridge) on which there are clamps and (hooks like) thorns that scratch people
according to their deeds, some will be totally safe, and some will be safe after
receiving some scratches, and some will fall down into Hell (fire). After Allah,
Exalted is He, finishs judging His slaves, He takes out from Hell some of those
who beared witnessed that there is deity worthy of worship but Allah, so He
orders His angels to bring them out. When angels took for them, they
recognise then by the marks of postration. Because Allah, the Most High, forbade
fire to consume the marks of postration. They take them out, thought
their bodies were burnt, so they pour on them water, called the water of life.
They will grow on its banks, as a seed carried by the torrent
grow."
Ahmad in
his Musnad (2/275-276), Sahih al-Bukhari (1/204) and Sahih Muslim
(182)
