Full Sharh — Mishkat al-Masabih 127

عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسلم: «يُسَلط عَلَى الْكَافِرِ فِي قَبْرِهِ تِسْعَةٌ وَتِسْعُونَ تِنِّينًا تنهشه وتلدغه حَتَّى تقوم السَّاعَة وَلَو أَنَّ تِنِّينًا مِنْهَا نَفَخَ فِي الْأَرْضِ مَا أَنْبَتَتْ خَضِرًا» . رَوَاهُ الدَّارِمِيُّ وَرَوَى التِّرْمِذِيُّ نَحْوَهُ وَقَالَ: «سَبْعُونَ بدل تِسْعَة وَتسْعُونَ»

English Translation

Abu Sa'id reported God’s messenger as saying, “Ninety-nine dragons will be given power over an infidel in his grave, and will bite and sting him till the last hour comes. If one of those dragons were to breathe over the earth, it would bring forth no green thing." Darimi transmitted it, and Tirmidhi transmitted something similar, but he said seventy instead of ninety-nine.
