Question

Could you verify this?

When Nabi (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) entered Madinah everything was illuminated. When he passed away everything became dark.

 

Answer

Imams Tirmidhi, Ibn Majah, Ahmad, Ibn Hibban and others have recorded this as the statement of Sayyiduna Anas ibn Malik (radiyallahu ‘anhu).

(Sunan Tirmidhi, Hadith: 3618, Sunan Ibn Majah, Hadith: 1631, Musnad Ahmad, vol. 3 pg. 221 and Sahih Ibn Hibban, Hadith: 6634)

 

Imam Tirmidhi and Imam Ibn Hibban have declared the Hadith authentic.

 

 

And Allah Ta’ala Knows best.
