أَخْبَرَنَا يُونُسُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْأَعْلَى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي حُيَيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْحُبُلِّيُّ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْعَاصِ قَالَ

مَاتَ رَجُلٌ بِالْمَدِينَةِ مِمَّنْ وُلِدَ بِهَا فَصَلَّى عَلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ «يَا لَيْتَهُ مَاتَ بِغَيْرِ مَوْلِدِهِ» فَقَالُوا وَلِمَ ذَاكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ قَالَ «إِنَّ الرَّجُلَ إِذَا مَاتَ بِغَيْرِ مَوْلِدِهِ قِيسَ لَهُ مِنْ مَوْلِدِهِ إِلَى مُنْقَطَعِ أَثَرِهِ فِي الْجَنَّةِ» قَالَ لَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ حُيَيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ لَيْسَ مِمَنْ يُعْتَمَدُ عَلَيْهِ وَهَذَا الْحَدِيثُ عِنْدَنَا غَيْرُ مَحْفُوظٍ وَاللهُ أَعْلَمُ لِأَنَّ الصَّحِيحَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ «مِنَ اسْتَطَاعَ مِنْكُمْ أَنْ يَمُوتَ بِالْمَدِينَةِ فَإِنِّي أَشْفَعُ لِمَنْ مَاتَ بِهَا»

✧ A man died in Madinah among those who were born there, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed over him and said: 'Would that he had died somewhere other than his birthplace.' They said: 'And why is that, O Messenger of Allah?' He said: 'When a man dies away from his birthplace, a space is measured for him in Paradise from his birthplace to the end of his journey.' Abu Abd al-Rahman said to us: Huyayy b. Abd Allah is not one to be relied upon, and this hadith is not preserved in our view, and Allah knows best, because what is authentic from the Prophet ﷺ is: 'Whoever of you is able to die in Madinah, let him do so, for I will intercede for whoever dies there.'
