حَدَّثَنَا بِشْرُ بْنُ مُوسَى ثنا الْحُمَيْدِيُّ ثنا سُفْيَانُ ثنا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ أَبِي خَالِدٍ عَنْ قَيْسِ بْنِ أَبِي حَازِمٍ قَالَ
أَتَيْنَا خَبَّابًا نَعُودُهُ وَقَدِ اكْتَوَى فِي بَطْنِهِ سَبْعًا فَقَالَ لَوْلَا أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ «نَهَى أَنْ نَدْعُوَ بِالْمَوْتِ لَدَعَوْتُ بِهِ ثُمَّ ذَكَرَ مَنْ مَضَى مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ أَنَّهُمْ مَضَوْا وَلَمْ يَأْكُلُوا مِنْ أُجُورِهِمْ شَيْئًا وَإِنَّا بَقِينَا بَعْدَهُمْ حَتَّى نِلْنَا مِنَ الدُّنْيَا مَا لَا يَدْرِي أَحَدُنَا مَا يَصْنَعُ بِهِ إِلَّا أَنْ يُنْفِقَهُ فِي التُّرَابِ وَأَنَّ الْمُسْلِمَ لَيُؤْجَرُ فِي كُلِّ شَيْءٍ أَنْفَقَهُ إِلَّا مَا أَنْفَقَهُ فِي التُّرَابِ»

✧ We came to Khabbab to visit him, and he had cauterized himself seven times in his belly. He said, “Were it not that the Prophet ﷺ forbade us to pray for death, I would have prayed for it.” Then he mentioned those of his companions who had passed on: they passed on and had not consumed anything of their rewards, while we remained after them until we attained from this world such that one of us does not know what to do with it except to spend it on the dust. And a Muslim is rewarded for everything he spends, except what he spends on the dust.”
