How are you all?

This is my first post!

I had a question regarding the story of barseesa
http://qisas.com/stories/191print/

Is this story a true reality or just something made up? Can someone please give me authentic hadeeth about this story? Jazak'allah khair!

as far as im aware this story is from ibn kathir?

:salamext:

I dunno, but someone mentioned they heard it in Anwal Al Awlaki's lecture....

:sl:
I heard this story in Imam anwar-al-awlak'is lecture series on "HEREAFTER". even I wonder at times where scholars get these stories from?? but it is very scary if u think about it that any moment might b ur last moment and u might do sumthing tat will take u far away from paradise and closer to hell, may ALLAH save us from hellfire and may we all die in the state of imaan (faith), ameen!

ALLAHAFIZ.

I just found something....kind of relating to Ibn Kathir....

2 In another narration Burseesah dies in sujjod to shaitan when shaitan promises to save him from the brothers. May Allah save us from such a Death. Ameen. This Narration is Quoted in Ibn al-Jauzi's Talbees Iblees, p.39.

* Mufassirs like Ibn Katheer and al-Qurtubi (Rahima huma Allah) have narrated similar stories in relation to the verse

Yeah that story is so freaky cause he was like the most pious bro in the village and he ends up committing shirk and dieing as a kafir
