Urdu Translation

عبداللہ بن مسعود رضی اللہ عنہ کہتے ہیں کہ   ہم نے اللہ تعالیٰ کے فرمان: «ولا تحسبن الذين قتلوا في سبيل الله أمواتا بل أحياء عند ربهم يرزقون» کے بارے میں ( رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم سے ) سوال کیا، تو آپ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فرمایا: شہداء کی روحیں سبز چڑیوں کی شکل میں جنت میں جہاں چاہیں چلتی پھرتی ہیں، پھر شام کو عرش سے لٹکی ہوئی قندیلوں میں بسیرا کرتی ہیں، ایک بار کیا ہوا کہ روحیں اسی حال میں تھیں کہ اللہ تعالیٰ نے ان کی طرف جھانکا پھر فرمانے لگا: تمہیں جو چاہیئے مانگو، روحوں نے کہا: ہم جنت میں جہاں چاہتی ہیں چلتی پھرتی ہیں، اس سے بڑھ کر کیا مانگیں؟ جب انہوں نے دیکھا کہ بغیر مانگے خلاصی نہیں تو کہنے لگیں: ہمارا سوال یہ ہے کہ تو ہماری روحوں کو دنیاوی جسموں میں لوٹا دے کہ ہم پھر تیرے راستے میں قتل کئے جائیں، اللہ تعالیٰ نے جب دیکھا کہ وہ اس کے علاوہ اور کچھ نہیں مانگ رہی ہیں تو چھوڑ دیا ۱؎۔

English Translation

It was narrated from ‘Abdullah concerning the Verse: “Think not of those as dead who are killed in the way of Allah. Nay, they are alive, with their Lord, and they have provision,”[3:169] that he said: “We asked about that, and (the Prophet (ﷺ)) said: ‘Their souls are like green birds that fly wherever they wish in Paradise, then they come back to lamps suspended from the Throne. While they were like that, your Lord looked at them and said, “Ask me for whatever you want.” They said: “O Lord, what should we ask You for when we can fly wherever we wish in Paradise?” When they saw that they would not be left alone until they had asked for something, they said: “We ask You to return our souls to our bodies in the world so that we may fight for Your sake (again).” When He saw that they would not ask for anything but that, they were left alone.’”
