قَالَ ابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ السَّائِبِ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنَ أَبِي لَيْلَى، وَهُوَ فِي جِنَازَةٍ، وَذَلِكَ أَوَّلَ يَوْمٍ عَرَفْتُهُ فِيهِ، سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ: ثَنَا فُلَانٌ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ ؓ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَقُولُ:

« مَنْ أَحَبَّ لِقَاءَ اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ أَحَبَّ اللهُ تَعَالَى لِقَاءَهُ، وَمَنْ كَرِهَ لِقَاءَ اللهِ تَعَالَى كَرِهَ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ لِقَاءَهُ ». فَبَكَى الْقَوْمُ فَقَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ وَأَيُّنَا لَا يَكْرَهُ الْمَوْتَ ؟ قَالَ ﷺ: « لَسْتُ ذَلِكَ أَعْنِي، وَلَكِنَّ اللهَ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى قَالَ: فَأَمَّا إِنْ كَانَ مِنَ الْمُقَرَّبِينَ فَرَوْحٌ وَرَيْحَانٌ وَجَنَّتُ نَعِيمٍ فَإِذَا كَانَ عِنْدَ ذَلِكَ أَحَبَّ لِقَاءَ اللهِ تَعَالَى، وَاللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ لِلِقَائِهِ أَحَبُّ، وَأَمَّا إِنْ كَانَ مِنَ الْمُكَذِّبِينَ الضَّالِّينَ فَنُـزُلٌ مِنْ حَمِيمٍ فَإِذَا كَانَ ذَلِكَ كَرِهَ لِقَاءَ اللهِ تَعَالَى، وَاللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ لِلِقَائِهِ أَكْرَهُ

✧ "Whoever loves to meet God, Mighty and Majestic, God Most High loves to meet him; and whoever hates to meet God Most High, God, Mighty and Majestic, hates to meet him." The people wept and said, "O Messenger of God, which of us does not hate death?" He ﷺ said, "That is not what I mean. But God, Blessed and Exalted, said: 'Then if he is of those brought near, then rest and fragrance and a garden of bliss.' When that is the case, he loves to meet God Most High, and God, Mighty and Majestic, is more loving of meeting him. But if he is of the deniers, the astray, then a lodging of boiling water. When that is the case, he hates to meet God Most High, and God, Mighty and Majestic, is more hating of meeting him."
