حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ أَخْبَرَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ بَهْدَلَةَ عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ
أَنَّ رَجُلًا لَمْ يَعْمَلْ مِنَ الْخَيْرِ شَيْئًا قَطُّ إِلَّا التَّوْحِيدَ، فَلَمَّا حَضَرَتْهُ الْوَفَاةُ قَالَ لِأَهْلِهِ: إِذَا أَنَا مُتُّ فَخُذُونِي، وَأَحْرِقُونِي حَتَّى تَدَعُونِي حُمَمَةً، ثُمَّ اطْحَنُونِي، ثُمَّ اذْرُونِي فِي الْبَحْرِ فِي يَوْمٍ رَاحٍ، قَالَ: فَفَعَلُوا بِهِ ذَلِكَ، قَالَ: فَإِذَا هُوَ فِي قَبْضَةِ اللهِ، قَالَ: فَقَالَ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ لَهُ: مَا حَمَلَكَ عَلَى مَا صَنَعْتَ؟ قَالَ: مَخَافَتُكَ، قَالَ: فَغَفَرَ اللهُ لَهُ.

✧ A man had never done any good deed except tawhid. When death came to him, he said to his family: When I die, take me and burn me until I become ashes, then grind me, then scatter me in the sea on a windy day. He said: They did that to him. He said: Then he was in Allah's grasp. He said: Allah, Mighty and Majestic, said to him: What made you do what you did? He said: Fear of You. He said: Then Allah forgave him.
