YOU GO TO HELL FOR PEEING ON YOURSELF?

Bukhari, Volume 1, Book 4, Number 215:

Narrated Ibn 'Abbas:

Once the Prophet, while passing through one of the grave-yards of Medina or Mecca heard the voices of two persons who were being tortured in their graves. The Prophet said, "These two persons are being tortured not for a major sin (to avoid)." The Prophet then added, "YES! (THEY ARE BEING TORTURED FOR A MAJOR SIN).

INDEED, ONE OF THEM NEVER SAVED HIMSELF FROM BEING SOILED WITH HIS URINE while the other used to go about with calumnies (to make emnity between friends).

The Prophet then asked for a green leaf of a date-palm tree, broke it into two pieces and put one on each grave. On being asked why he had done so, he replied, "I hope that their torture might be lessened, till these get dried."

Bukhari, Volume 1, Book 4, Number 217:

Narrated Ibn 'Abbas:

The Prophet once passed by two graves and said, "These two persons are being tortured not for a major sin (to avoid). ONE OF THEM NEVER SAVED HIMSELF FROM BEING SOILED WITH HIS URINE, while the other used to go about with calumnies(to make enmity between friends)." The Prophet then took a green leaf of a date-palm tree, split it into (pieces) and fixed one on each grave.

They said, "O Allah's Apostle! Why have you done so?" He replied, "I hope that their punishment might be lessened till these (the pieces of the leaf) become dry." (See the foot-note of Hadith 215).

...............Muslim, Book 002, Number 0575:

Ibn Abbas reported: The Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) happened to pass by two graves and said: They (their occupants) are being tormented, but they are not tormented for a grievous sin. One of them carried tales and the OTHER DID NOT KEEP HIMSELF SAFE FROM BEING DEFILED BY URINE. He then called for a fresh twig and split it into two parts, and planted them on each grave and then said: Perhaps, their punishment way be mitigated as long as these twigs remain fresh.

Muslim, Book 002, Number 0576:

This hadith is transmitted from A'mash by Abmad b. Yusuf al-Azdi,

Mu'alla b. Asad, Abd al-Wahid, Sulaiman with the same chain of transmitters but for the words:" THE OTHER DID NOT KEEP HIMSELF SAFE FROM BEING DEFILED BY URINE."
