أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْمُثَنَّى حَدَّثَنَا صَالِحُ بْنُ حَاتِمِ بْنِ وَرْدَانَ حَدَّثَنَا مُعْتَمِرُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبِي يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْغَافِرِ عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ

«كَانَ رَجُلٌ فِيمَنْ كَانَ قَبْلَكُمْ لَمْ يَبْتَئِرْ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ خَيْرًا قَطُّ قَالَ لِبَنِيهِ عِنْدَ الْمَوْتِ يَا بَنِيَّ أَيَّ أَبٍ كُنْتُ لَكُمْ؟ قَالُوا خَيْرَ أَبٍ قَالَ فَإِذَا أَنَا مِتُّ فَاحْرَقُونِي واسْحَقُونِي فَإِذَا كَانَ فِي يَوْمِ رِيحٍ عَاصِفٍ فَذُرُّونِي قَالَ فَمَاتَ فَفُعِلَ بِهِ ذَلِكَ فقَالَ لَهُ كُنْ فَكَانَ كَأَسْرَعِ مِنْ طَرْفَةِ الْعَيْنِ فقَالَ اللَّهُ يَا عَبْدِي مَا حَمَلَكَ عَلَى مَا فَعَلْتَ؟ فقَالَ مَخَافَتُكَ أَيْ رَبِّ قَالَ فَمَا تَلَافَاهُ أَنْ غُفِرَ لَهُ»

✧ “There was a man among those before you who never stored up any good with Allah. At death he said to his sons: ‘O my sons, what kind of father was I to you?’ They said: ‘The best of fathers.’ He said: ‘Then when I die, burn me and crush me, and when it is a day of violent wind, scatter me.’ He died, and that was done to him. Then He said to him: ‘Be,’ and he was, faster than the blink of an eye. Allah said: ‘O My servant, what made you do what you did?’ He said: ‘Fear of You, O Lord.’ He said: ‘He did not requite him except that he was forgiven.’”
