\nNarrated Rabi bin Hirash:\n \n\n`Uqba bin `Amr said to Hudhaifa, "Won't you relate to us of what you have heard from Allah's \nApostle ?" He said, "I heard him saying, "When Al-Dajjal appears, he will have fire and water along \nwith him. What the people will consider as cold water, will be fire that will burn (things). So, if \nanyone of you comes across this, he should fall in the thing which will appear to him as fire, for in \nreality, it will be fresh cold water." Hudhaifa added, "I also heard him saying, 'From among the people \npreceding your generation, there was a man whom the angel of death visited to capture his soul. (So \nhis soul was captured) and he was asked if he had done any good deed.' He replied, 'I don't remember \nany good deed.' He was asked to think it over. He said, 'I do not remember, except that I used to trade \nwith the people in the world and I used to give a respite to the rich and forgive the poor (among my \ndebtors). So Allah made him enter Paradise." Hudhaifa further said, "I also heard him saying, 'Once \nthere was a man on his death-bed, who, losing every hope of surviving said to his family: When I die, \ngather for me a large heap of wood and make a fire (to burn me). When the fire eats my meat and \nreaches my bones, and when the bones burn, take and crush them into powder and wait for a windy \nday to throw it (i.e. the powder) over the sea. They did so, but Allah collected his particles and asked \nhim: \nWhy did you do so? He replied: For fear of You. So Allah forgave him." `Uqba bin `Amr said, "I \nheard him saying that the Israeli used to dig the grave of the dead (to steal their shrouds).\n
