Sahih Muslim Book - 5, Hadith - 1181

وَحَدَّثَنِى زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ أَخْبَرَنِى أَبِى عَنْ عَائِشَةَ أَنَّ أُمَّ حَبِيبَةَ وَأُمَّ سَلَمَةَ ذَكَرَتَا كَنِيسَةً رَأَيْنَهَا بِالْحَبَشَةِ - فِيهَا تَصَاوِيرُ - لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- « إِنَّ أُولَئِكِ إِذَا كَانَ فِيهِمُ الرَّجُلُ الصَّالِحُ فَمَاتَ بَنَوْا عَلَى قَبْرِهِ مَسْجِدًا وَصَوَّرُوا فِيهِ تِلْكَ الصُّوَرَ أُولَئِكِ شِرَارُ الْخَلْقِ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ ».

It was narrated from 'Aishah that Umm Habibah and Umm Salamah mentioned a church, that they had seen in Ethiopia in which there were images, to the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w). The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said: "Those people, if there was a righteous man among them and he died, they would build a Masjid over his grave and paint those images in it. They will be the most evil of mankind before Allah on the Day of Resurrection."
