حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْأَعْلَى، حَدَّثَنَا مُعْتَمِرٌ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ حُمَيْدًا يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ أَنَسٍ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ:
لَا يَتَمَنَّيَنَّ أَحَدُكُمُ الْمَوْتَ لِضُرٍّ نَزَلَ فِيهِ فِي الدُّنْيَا، وَلَكِنْ لِيَقُلِ: اللَّهُمَّ أَحْيِنِي مَا كَانَتِ الْحَيَاةُ خَيْرًا لِي، وَتَوَفَّنِي إِذَا كَانَتِ الْوَفَاةُ خَيْرًا لِي
