شَرْحُ رِيَاضِ الصَّالِحِينَ مِنْ كَلَامِ سَيِّدِ الْمُرْسَلِينَ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ

A Commentary on Riyadh as-Salihin from the words of the Master of the Messengers, may Allah bless him and grant him peace.

وَسَبُّكُمْ وَسَبُّكُمْ إِيَّاهُمْ لَا يُغْنِي شَيْئًا؛ لِأَنَّهُمْ أَفْضَوْا إِلَى مَا قَدَّمُوا حِينَ انْتَقَلُوا إِلَى دَارِ الْجَزَاءِ مِنْ دَارِ الْعَمَلِ

Insulting them serves no purpose, for they have arrived at the consequences of their deeds, having moved from the realm of action to the realm of recompense.

فَكُلُّ مَنْ مَاتَ فَإِنَّهُ أَفْضَى إِلَى مَا قَدَّمَ، وَالْتَحَقَ بِدَارِ الْجَزَاءِ وَقَامَتْ قِيَامَتُهُ، وَانْقَطَعَ عَمَلُهُ وَلَمْ يَبْقَ لَهُ حَلٌّ مِنَ الْعَمَلِ إِطْلَاقًا إِلَّا مَا دَلَّتِ السُّنَّةُ عَلَيْهِ مِثْلُ قَوْلِ النَّبِيِّ : إِذَا مَاتَ الْإِنْسَانُ انْقَطَعَ عَمَلُهُ إِلَّا مِنْ ثَلَاثٍ: صَدَقَةٍ جَارِيَةٍ، أَوْ عِلْمٍ يُنْتَفَعُ بِهِ، أَوْ وَلَدٍ صَالِحٍ يَدْعُو لَهُ )

Everyone who dies meets what they have sent ahead, enters the realm of recompense, and faces their own personal resurrection. Their deeds cease, and no opportunity for further action remains, save for what the Sunnah has specified, as the Prophet said: 'When a person dies, their deeds come to an end except for three: an ongoing charity, knowledge that continues to be of benefit, or a righteous child who prays for them.'
