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!

 

[S_87]

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....

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.

Allâhu Aâlim

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

I was more hoping for a reference from hadeeth?

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
