حَدَّثَنَا حَسَنٌ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو يُونُسَعَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ [قَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ] قَالَ أَبِي لَمْ يَرْفَعْهُ قَالَ جَاءَ مَلَكُ الْمَوْتِ إِلَى مُوسَى فَقَالَ
جَاءَ مَلَكُ الْمَوْتِ إِلَى مُوسَى فَقَالَ: أَجِبْ رَبَّكَ، فَلَطَمَ مُوسَى [عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ] عَيْنَ مَلَكِ الْمَوْتِ فَفَقَأَهَا، فَرَجَعَ الْمَلَكُ إِلَى اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ فَقَالَ: إِنَّكَ بَعَثْتَنِي إِلَى عَبْدٍ لَكَ لَا يُرِيدُ الْمَوْتَ، وَقَدْ فَقَأَ عَيْنِي، قَالَ: فَرَدَّ اللهُ إِلَيْهِ عَيْنَهُ، وَقَالَ: ارْجِعْ إِلَى عَبْدِي فَقُلْ لَهُ: الْحَيَاةَ تُرِيدُ ؟ فَإِنْ كُنْتَ تُرِيدُ الْحَيَاةَ فَضَعْ يَدَكَ عَلَى مَتْنِ ثَوْرٍ، فَمَا وَارَتْ يَدُكَ مِنْ شَعَرِهِ فَإِنَّكَ تَعِيشُ بَهَا سَنَةً، قَالَ: ثُمَّ مَهْ ؟ قَالَ: ثُمَّ الْمَوْتُ، قَالَ: فَالْآنَ يَا رَبِّ مِنْ قَرِيبٍ.

✧ The Angel of Death came to Musa and said: Answer your Lord. Musa ﷺ slapped the eye of the Angel of Death and gouged it out. The angel returned to Allah, Mighty and Majestic, and said: You sent me to a servant of Yours who does not want death, and he has gouged out my eye. He said: Allah restored his eye and said: Return to My servant and say to him: Do you want life? If you want life, place your hand on the back of a bull; however many hairs your hand covers, you will live that many years. He said: Then what? He said: Then death. He said: Now, O Lord, from nearby.
