Abu Saeed Khudri reported,

I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, "The bridge will be set across the middle of Hell. Upon it are spikes like the thorns of the Saadan plant. Then the people will be made to cross. Some will pass safely and unscathed, some will pass but be torn by the spikes, others will pass through after being wounded, and some will be cast headlong into it.When Allah has finished judging between His servants, the believers will miss certain men who used to be with them in the world, men who prayed as they prayed, gave zakat as they gave it, fasted as they fasted, performed pilgrimage as they performed it, and went on military expeditions as they did.They will say, 'Our Lord, there were servants from among Your servants who were with us in the world. They prayed our prayers, gave our zakat, fasted our fasts, performed our pilgrimage, and went on our expeditions, yet we do not see them.'Allah will say, 'Go to the Fire, and whoever you find there from among them, bring them out.'So they will find them. The Fire will have taken hold of them according to the measure of their deeds. Some it has taken up to their feet, some up to the middle of their shins, some up to their knees, some up to their waists, some up to their chests, and some up to their necks, but it has not covered their faces. They will pull them out and cast them into the Water of Life."It was asked, "Messenger of Allah, what is the Water of Life?"He said, "It is the bath of the people of Paradise. They will then sprout forth like plants growing." On another occasion he said, "as a seedling sprouts in the debris carried by a flood.Then the prophets will intercede for everyone who used to bear witness sincerely that there is no god but Allah, and they will bring them out of it. Then Allah, in His mercy, will show compassion to those who remain in it, and He will not leave a single servant in whose heart there is the weight of a grain of faith without bringing him out of it."

حدثنا إسماعيل بن إبراهيم حدثنا محمد بن إسحاق قال حدثني عبيد الله بن المغيرة بن معيقيب عن سليمان بن عمرو بن عبد العتواري أحد بني ليث وكان يتيما في حجر أبي سعيد سليمان بن عمر وهو أبو الهيثم الذي يروي عن أبي سعيد قال سمعت

أبا سعيد يقول

سمعت رسول الله ﷺ يقول يوضع الصراط بين ظهري جهنم عليه حسك كحسك السعدان ثم يستجيز الناس فناج مسلم ومجدوح به ثم ناج ومحتبس به منكوس فيها فإذا فرغ الله عز وجل من القضاء بين العباد يفقد المؤمنون رجالا كانوا معهم في الدنيا يصلون بصلاتهم ويزكون بزكاتهم ويصومون صيامهم ويحجون حجهم ويغزون غزوهم فيقولون أي ربنا عباد من عبادك كانوا معنا في الدنيا يصلون صلاتنا ويزكون زكاتنا ويصومون صيامنا ويحجون حجنا ويغزون غزونا لا نراهم فيقول اذهبوا إلى النار فمن وجدتم فيها منهم فأخرجوه قال فيجدونهم قد أخذتهم النار على قدر أعمالهم فمنهم من أخذته إلى قدميه ومنهم من أخذته إلى نصف ساقيه ومنهم من أخذته إلى ركبتيه ومنهم من أزرته ومنهم من أخذته إلى ثدييه ومنهم من أخذته إلى عنقه ولم تغش الوجوه فيستخرجونهم منها فيطرحون في ماء الحياة قيل يا رسول الله وما ماء الحياة قال غسل أهل الجنة فينبتون نبات الزرعة وقال مرة فيه كما تنبت الزرعة في غثاء السيل ثم يشفع الأنبياء في كل من كان يشهد أن لا إله إلا الله مخلصا فيخرجونهم منها قال ثم يتحنن الله برحمته على من فيها فما يترك فيها عبدا في قلبه مثقال حبة من إيمان إلا أخرجه منها
