Sunan an-Nasai 1345 (Book 13, Hadith 167) #15953
Avoiding the Torment of the Grave

SUMMARY: This hadith is about the torment of the grave and how it can be avoided.

'Aishah said: "A Jewish woman entered unto me and said: 'The torment of the grave is because of urine'. I said: 'You are lying'. She said: 'No, it is true; we cut our skin and clothes because of it'. The Messenger of Allah went out to pray and our voices became loud. He said: 'What is this?' So I told him what she had said. He said: 'She spoke the truth'. After that day he never offered any prayer but he said, following the prayer: 'Rabba Jibril wa Mika'il wa Israfil, aiding min harrin-nar wa 'adhabil-qabr (Lord of Jibril, Mika'il and Israfil, grant me refuge from the heat of the Fire and the torment of the grave)'."
أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَعْلَى، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا قُدَامَةُ، عَنْ جَسْرَةَ، قَالَتْ حَدَّثَتْنِي عَائِشَةُ، - رضى الله عنها - قَالَتْ دَخَلَتْ عَلَىَّ امْرَأَةٌ مِنَ الْيَهُودِ فَقَالَتْ إِنَّ عَذَابَ الْقَبْرِ مِنَ الْبَوْلِ ‏.‏ فَقُلْتُ كَذَبْتِ ‏.‏ فَقَالَتْ بَلَى إِنَّا لَنَقْرِضُ مِنْهُ الْجِلْدَ وَالثَّوْبَ ‏.‏ فَخَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ إِلَى الصَّلاَةِ وَقَدِ ارْتَفَعَتْ أَصْوَاتُنَا فَقَالَ ‏"‏ مَا هَذَا ‏"‏ ‏.‏ فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ بِمَا قَالَتْ فَقَالَ ‏"‏ صَدَقَتْ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ فَمَا صَلَّى بَعْدَ يَوْمَئِذٍ صَلاَةً إِلاَّ قَالَ فِي دُبُرِ الصَّلاَةِ ‏"‏ رَبَّ جِبْرِيلَ وَمِيكَائِيلَ وَإِسْرَافِيلَ أَعِذْنِي مِنْ حَرِّ النَّارِ وَعَذَابِ الْقَبْرِ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith tells us about a conversation between Aishah and a Jewish woman who said that the torment of the grave is because of urine. Aishah disagreed with her but then The Messenger of Allah confirmed that she was right. After this incident, he started saying a prayer after every prayer asking for refuge from both fire and torment in the grave. This teaches us that we should always be careful to avoid any kind of sin as it can lead to punishment in this life or even in our graves after death. We should also make sure to ask for protection from Allah through prayers so we can stay safe from any harm or punishment in this world or hereafter.
