حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ مَيْمُونٍ، عَنْ عُمَرَ، رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يَتَعَوَّذُ مِنْ الْبُخْلِ وَالْجُبْنِ وَعَذَابِ الْقَبْرِ وَأَرْذَلِ الْعُمُرِ وَفِتْنَةِ الصَّدْرِ قَالَ وَكِيعٌ فِتْنَةُ الصَّدْرِ أَنْ يَمُوتَ الرَّجُلُ وَذَكَرَ وَكِيعٌ الْفِتْنَةَ لَمْ يَتُبْ مِنْهَا‏.‏

Translation

Waki‘ narrated to us, from Isra’il, from Abu Ishaq, from ‘Amr ibn Maymun, from ‘Umar, may Allah be pleased with him: The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, used to seek refuge from miserliness, cowardice, punishment of the grave, the vilest old age, and the affliction of the chest. Waki‘ said: ‘The affliction of the chest is that a man dies…’ Waki‘ mentioned the affliction as that from which one has not repented.’
