وَقَالُوا لِجُلُودِهِمْ لِمَ شَهِدتُّمْ عَلَيْنَا
And they will say to their skins, "Why do you testify against us?"
they will blame their limbs and their skins when they testify against them, at which point their limbs will answer;
قَالُوا أَنطَقَنَا اللَّهُ الَّذِي أَنطَقَ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ
وَهُوَ خَلَقَكُمْ أَوَّلَ مَرَّةٍ
They will say;"Allah has caused us to speak -- as He causes all things to speak, and He created you the first time,
means, and He cannot be opposed or resisted,
وَإِلَيْهِ تُرْجَعُونَ
and to Him you are made to return."
i.e. and to Him you will return.
Al-Hafiz Abu Bakr Al-Bazzar narrated that Anas bin Malik, may Allah be pleased with him, said,
"The Messenger of Allah laughed and smiled one day, and said;Will you not ask about why I laughed"
They said, "O Messenger of Allah, why did you laugh"
He said;
عَجِبْتُ مِنْ مُجَادَلَةِ الْعَبْدِ رَبَّهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ يَقُولُ
أَيْ رَبِّي أَلَيْسَ وَعَدْتَنِي أَنْ لَا تَظْلِمَنِي
قَالَ بَلَى
فَيَقُولُ فَإِنِّي لَا أَقْبَلُ عَلَيَّ شَاهِدًا إِلاَّ مِنْ نَفْسِي
فَيَقُولُ اللهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى أَوَلَيْسَ كَفَى بِي شَهِيدًا وَبِالْمَلَيِكَةِ الْكِرَام الْكَاتِبِينَ
قال فَيُرَدِّدُ هذَا الْكَلَمَ مِرَارًا
قال فَيُخْتَمُ عَلى فِيهِ وَتَتَكَلَّمُ أَرْكَانُهُ بِمَا كَانَ يَعْمَلُ فَيَقُولُ بُعْدًا لَكُنَّ وَسُحْقًا عَنْكُنَّ كُنْتُ أُجَادِل
I was amazed at how a servant will dispute with his Lord on the Day of Resurrection. He will say,
"My Lord, did You not promise me that you would not treat me unjustly?"
Allah will say, "Yes."
The man will say, "I will not accept any witness against me except from myself."
Allah will say, "Is it not sufficient that I and the angels, the noble scribes, are witnesses?"
These words will be repeated several times, then a seal will be placed over his mouth and his organs (or limbs) will speak about what he used to do. Then he will say,
"Away with you! It was only for your sake that I was arguing!""
It was recorded by him and Ibn Abi Hatim.
It was also recorded by Muslim and An-Nasa'i.
Ibn Abi Hatim recorded that Abu Burdah said that Abu Musa said,
"The disbeliever or the hypocrite will be called to account and his Lord will show him his deeds, but he will deny them and say, `O Lord, by Your glory, this angel has written about me something that I did not do.'
The angel will say to him, `Did you not do such and such on such and such a day in such and such a place?'
He will say, `No, by Your glory O Lord, I did not do it.'
When he does that, a seal will be placed over his mouth."
Al-Ash`ari, may Allah be pleased with him, said,
"I think that the first part of his body to speak will be his right thigh."
Allah's saying
