حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ حَدَّثَنَا الْأَسْوَدُ بْنُ شَيْبَانَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو نَوْفَلِ بْنُ أَبِي عَقْرَبٍ قَالَ
جَزِعَ عَمْرُو بْنُ الْعَاصِ عِنْدَ الْمَوْتِ جَزَعًا شَدِيدًا فَلَمَّا رَأَى ذَلِكَ ابْنُهُ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عَمْرٍو، قَالَ: يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ اللهِ، مَا هَذَا الْجَزَعُ؟ وَقَدْ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يُدْنِيكَ وَيَسْتَعْمِلُكَ؟ قَالَ: أَيْ بُنَيَّ، قَدْ كَانَ ذَلِكَ وَسَأُخْبِرُكَ عَنْ ذَلِكَ: إِنِّي وَاللهِ مَا أَدْرِي أَحُبًّا كَانَ ذَلِكَ أَمْ تَأَلُّفًا يَتَأَلَّفُنِي، وَلَكِنْ أَشْهَدُ عَلَى رَجُلَيْنِ أَنَّهُ قَدْ فَارَقَ الدُّنْيَا وَهُوَ يُحِبُّهُمَا: ابْنُ سُمَيَّةَ وَابْنُ أُمِّ عَبْدٍ، فَلَمَّا حَدَّثَهُ وَضَعَ يَدَهُ مَوْضِعَ الْغِلَالِ مِنْ ذَقْنِهِ، وَقَالَ: اللَّهُمَّ أَمَرْتَنَا فَتَرَكْنَا، وَنَهَيْتَنَا فَرَكِبْنَا، وَلَا يَسَعُنَا إِلَّا مَغْفِرَتُكَ، وَكَانَتْ تِلْكَ هِجِّيرَاهُ حَتَّى مَاتَ.

✧ ʿAmr b. al-ʿĀṣ became severely distressed at the time of death. When his son ʿAbd Allāh b. ʿAmr saw that, he said: O Abū ʿAbd Allāh, what is this distress? The Messenger of God ﷺ used to draw you near and appoint you to positions of authority. He said: O my son, that is true, and I will tell you about it. By God, I do not know whether that was out of love or out of winning my heart (taʾalluf). But I bear witness regarding two men that he departed this world while he loved them: Ibn Sumayya and Ibn Umm ʿAbd. When he had told him that, he placed his hand on the place of the collarbones at his chin and said: O God, You commanded us and we neglected; You forbade us and we committed. Nothing can encompass us except Your forgiveness. And that remained his constant refrain until he died.
