أَخْبَرَنَا سُوَيْدُ بْنُ نَصْرٍ، قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ سُلَيْمَانَ، عَنْ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أُسَامَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، قَالَ أَرْسَلَتْ بِنْتُ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم إِلَيْهِ أَنَّ ابْنًا لِي قُبِضَ فَأْتِنَا . فَأَرْسَلَ يَقْرَأُ السَّلاَمَ وَيَقُولُ " إِنَّ لِلَّهِ مَا أَخَذَ وَلَهُ مَا أَعْطَى وَكُلُّ شَىْءٍ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ بِأَجَلٍ مُسَمًّى فَلْتَصْبِرْ وَلْتَحْتَسِبْ " . فَأَرْسَلَتْ إِلَيْهِ تُقْسِمُ عَلَيْهِ لَيَأْتِيَنَّهَا فَقَامَ وَمَعَهُ سَعْدُ بْنُ عُبَادَةَ وَمُعَاذُ بْنُ جَبَلٍ وَأُبَىُّ بْنُ كَعْبٍ وَزَيْدُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ وَرِجَالٌ فَرُفِعَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم الصَّبِيُّ وَنَفْسُهُ تَقَعْقَعُ فَفَاضَتْ عَيْنَاهُ فَقَالَ سَعْدٌ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَا هَذَا قَالَ " هَذَا رَحْمَةٌ يَجْعَلُهَا اللَّهُ فِي قُلُوبِ عِبَادِهِ وَإِنَّمَا يَرْحَمُ اللَّهُ مِنْ عِبَادِهِ الرُّحَمَاءَ " .
Suwayd ibn Nasr informed us: ‘Abdullah informed us, from ‘Asim ibn Sulayman, from Abu ‘Uthman, who said: Usamah ibn Zayd told me: The Prophet’s daughter sent word to him: ‘My son is at the point of death, so come to us.’ He sent her his greetings and said: ‘What Allah takes belongs to Him, and what He gives belongs to Him; everything with Allah has an appointed term. Let her be patient and seek reward.’ She sent word to him again, adjuring him to come. He stood up and went with Sa‘d ibn ‘Ubadah, Mu‘adh ibn Jabal, Ubayy ibn Ka‘b, Zayd ibn Thabit, and other men. The boy was brought up to the Messenger of Allah, and his breath was rattling. The Messenger’s eyes overflowed with tears. Sa‘d said: ‘Messenger of Allah, what is this?’ He said: ‘This is compassion that Allah places in the hearts of His servants. Allah shows mercy only to those of His servants who are compassionate.’
