حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ نُمَيْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا مُجَالِدٌ، عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ:
سَمِعْتُ عُمَرَ، يَقُولُ لِطَلْحَةَ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ: مَا لِي أَرَاكَ شَعِثْتَ وَاغْبَرَرْتَ مُذْ تُوُفِّيَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَعَلَّهُ أَنَّ مَا بِكَ إِمَارَةُ ابْنِ عَمِّكَ ؟ قَالَ: فَقَالَ: مَعَاذَ اللهِ، إِنِّي سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ: إِنِّي لَأَعْلَمُ كَلِمَةً لَا يَقُولُهَا رَجُلٌ يَحْضُرُهُ الْمَوْتُ إِلَّا وَجَدَ رُوحَهُ لَهَا رَوْحًا حَتَّى تَخْرُجَ مِنْ جَسَدِهِ، وَكَانَتْ لَهُ نُورًا يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ "، فَلَمْ أَسْأَلْ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ عَنْهَا، وَلَمْ يُخْبِرْنِي بِهَا، فَذَاكَ الَّذِي دَخَلَنِي، قَالَ عُمَرُ: فَأَنَا أَعْلَمُهَا، قَالَ: فَلِلَّهِ الْحَمْدُ، فَمَا هِيَ ؟ قَالَ: الْكَلِمَةُ الَّتِي قَالَهَا لِعَمِّهِ، قَالَ: صَدَقْتَ

✧ I heard Umar saying to Talhah b. Ubayd Allah: "Why do I see you disheveled and dusty since the Messenger of Allah ﷺ died? Perhaps it is the rule of your cousin that bothers you?" He said: "I seek refuge with Allah. I heard him say: 'I know a word which no man says when death is present to him except that his soul finds relief through it until it leaves his body, and it will be light for him on the Day of Resurrection.' So I did not ask the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about it, and he did not tell it to me. That is what has entered me." Umar said: "I know it." He said: "Praise be to Allah. What is it?" He said: "The word he said to his uncle." He said: "You have spoken truth."
