أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا النَّضْرُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي عَلِيُّ بْنُ زَيْدٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ يَقُولُ
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَا يَتَمَنَّيَنَّ أَحَدُكُمُ الْمَوْتَ أَوْ قَالَ الْمُؤْمِنُ الْمَوْتَ فَإِنْ كَانَ لَا بُدَّ فَاعِلًا فَلْيَقُلِ اللهُمَّ أَحْيِنِي مَا كَانَتِ الْحَيَاةُ خَيْرًا لِي وَتَوَفَّنِي إِذَا كَانَتِ الْوَفَاةُ خَيْرًا لِي

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "None of you should ever wish for death," or he said, "A believer should not wish for death. If he must do so, then let him say: O Allah, keep me alive as long as life is better for me, and cause me to die when death is better for me."
