A woman whom the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ used to laugh at and joke with passed away. I said, "She has found rest."The Prophet ﷺ said, "Only the one who is forgiven finds rest."
توفيت امرأة كان أصحاب النبي ﷺ يضحكون منها، ويمازحونها فقلت: استراحت، فقال النبي ﷺ: إنما يستريح من غفر له.

Bazzar narrated it in Kashf Astar (789) from Ahmad bin Ishaq Ahwazi, who said, Uthman bin Umar told us, Yunus, that is, bin Yazid, told us, from Zuhri, from Muhammad bin Urwa bin Zubayr, from his father, from Ayesha who said, and she mentioned it. Its chain of transmission is hasan because of Muhammad bin Urwa bin Zubayr, who is "truthful."Tabarani narrated it in Awsat (9375) from Haytham bin Khalid, who said, Abdul-Kabeer bin Muafa bin Imran told us, who said, Ibn Lahia told us, from Abu Aswad, from Urwa bin Zubayr, from Ayesha who said, Bilal came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "So-and-so has died and found rest." The Prophet ﷺ became angry and said, "Only one whose sins have been forgiven finds rest."Tabarani said, "This hadith was not narrated from Abu Aswad except by Ibn Lahia, and it was not narrated from Ibn Lahia except by Muafa, Abdul-Kabeer narrated it alone."I say, the chain of transmission contains Ibn Lahia, who had mixed narrations in his later life, and there is much discussion about him.
