عَنْ عَمْرو بْنِ مَنْصُورٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ رَجَاءٍ عَنْ هَمَّامٍ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ أَبِي الْجَوْزَاءِ الرَّبَعِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ إِنَّ الْمُؤْمِنَ إِذَا حَضَرَهُ الْمَوْتُ حَضَرَتْهُ مَلَائِكَةُ الرَّحْمَةِ فَإِذَا قُبِضَتْ نَفْسُهُ جُعِلَتْ فِي حَرِيرَةٍ بَيْضَاءَ فَيُنْطَلَقُ بِهَا إِلَى بَابِ السَّمَاءِ فَيَقُولُونَ مَا وَجَدْنَا رِيحًا أَطْيَبَ مِنْ هَذِهِ فَيُقَالَ دَعُوهُ يَسْتَرِيحُ فَإِنَّهُ كَانَ فِي غُمٍّ فَيُسْأَلُ مَا فَعَلَ فُلَانٌ؟ مَا فَعَلَ فُلَانٌ؟ مَا فَعَلَتْ فُلَانَةُ؟ وَأَمَّا الْكَافِرُ فَإِذَا قُبِضَتْ نَفْسُهُ وَذَهَبَ بِهَا إِلَى بَابِ الْأَرْضِ يَقُولُ خَزَنَةُ الْأَرْضِ مَا وَجَدْنَا رِيحًا أَنْتُنَ مِنْ هَذِهِ فَتَبْلُغُ بِهَا إِلَى الْأَرْضِ السُّفْلَى

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "When death comes to the believer, the angels of mercy attend him. When his soul is taken, it is placed in a white silk cloth and taken up to the gate of the heaven. They say: 'We have never found a scent more pleasant than this.' It is said: 'Leave him to rest, for he was in distress.' Then he is asked: 'What did so-and-so do? What did so-and-so do? What did so-and-so do?' As for the disbeliever, when his soul is taken and taken down to the gate of the earth, the keepers of the earth say: 'We have never found a stench more foul than this.' Then it reaches the lowest earth."
