حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عَلِيَّ بْنَ زَيْدٍ يَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ أَنَسًا يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ لَا يَتَمَنَّى الْمُؤْمِنُ أَوْ قَالَ أَحَدُكُمْ الْمَوْتَ فَإِنْ كَانَ لَا بُدَّ فَاعِلًا فَلْيَقُلْ اللَّهُمَّ أَحْيِنِي مَا كَانَتْ الْحَيَاةُ خَيْرًا لِي وَتَوَفَّنِي مَا كَانَتْ الْوَفَاةُ خَيْرًا لِي.
الترجمة الإنجليزية
Muhammad ibn Ja'far told us: Shu'bah told us, who said: I heard 'Ali ibn Zayd say: I heard Anas narrate from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, that he said, "Let not the believer" — or he said "any of you" — "wish for death; and if he must, let him say: O Allah, keep me alive as long as life is good for me, and take my life when death is good for me."
