The Book of Asceticism · Hadith 256 (#Ḥadīth #1)

حدثنا الحسين بن سعد قال: حدثنا فضالة عن القاسم بن بريد عن محمد بن مسلم: قال: سألت أبا عبد الله عليه السلام عن الجهنميين فقال: كان أبو جعفر عليه السلام يقول: يخرجون منها فينتهى بهم إلى عين عند باب الجنة تسمى عين الحيوان فينضح عليهم من مائها فينبتون كما ينبت الزرع لحومهم وجلودهم وشعورهم.

1.Al-Ḥasan ibn Saʿīd narrated to us saying, “Faḍālah narrated to us from al-Qāsim ibn Burayd, from Muḥammad ibn Muslim who said, ‘I asked Abā ʿAbdillāh about the inmates of Hell [who are released after their punishment], so he said, “[My father] Abū Jaʿfar used to say, ‘They Will come out from it and will be taken to a spring at the gate of Paradise called the Spring of Life. They will then be showered with its water and their flesh, skin and hair will grow [back] just as plants grow.’”’”
