حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنِ ابْنِ الْهَادِ، عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ سَرْجِسَ، عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَهُوَ بِالْمَوْتِ وَعِنْدَهُ قَدَحٌ فِيهِ مَاءٌ وَهُوَ يُدْخِلُ يَدَهُ فِي الْقَدَحِ ثُمَّ يَمْسَحُ وَجْهَهُ بِالْمَاءِ ثُمَّ يَقُولُ ‏ "‏ اللَّهُمَّ أَعِنِّي عَلَى غَمَرَاتِ الْمَوْتِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ أَوْ ‏"‏ سَكَرَاتِ الْمَوْتِ ‏" ‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ غَرِيبٌ ‏.‏

ʿĀʾishah said: ‘I saw the Messenger of Allah in his final illness with a cup of water beside him. He put his hand into it, wiped his face with the water, and said, “O Allah, help me through the agonies of death”—or “the throes of death.”’ This report is gharīb.
