أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ الْخَضِرِ الشَّافِعِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الطُّوسِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا سَهْلُ بْنُ أَسْلِمَ النَّيْسَابُورِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا مَكِّيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ،
أَنَّ عَامِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ قَيْسٍ، لَمَّا حَضَرَهُ الْمَوْتُ جَعَلَ يَبْكِي، فَقِيلَ لَهُ: مَا يُبْكِيكَ؟، قَالَ: " مَا أَبْكِي جَزَعًا مِنَ الْمَوْتِ وَلَا حِرْصًا عَلَى الدُّنْيَا، وَلَكِنْ أَبْكِي عَلَى ظَمَأِ الْهَوَاجِرِ عَلَى قِيَامِ اللَّيْلِ فِي الشِّتَاءِ "

When death came to ʿĀmir b. ʿAbd Qays, he began to weep. It was said to him: "What makes you weep?" He said: "I do not weep out of fear of death, nor out of eagerness for this world, but I weep over the thirst of the midday heat and over standing in prayer through the night in winter."
