حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عَدِيٍّ، عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " مَنْ أَحَبَّ لِقَاءَ اللهِ، أَحَبَّ اللهُ لِقَاءَهُ، وَمَنْ كَرِهَ لِقَاءَ اللهِ، كَرِهَ اللهُ لِقَاءَهُ "، قُلْنَا: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، كُلُّنَا نَكْرَهُ الْمَوْتَ. قَالَ: " لَيْسَ ذَاكَ كَرَاهِيَةَ الْمَوْتِ، وَلَكِنَّ الْمُؤْمِنَ إِذَا حُضِرَ جَاءَهُ الْبَشِيرُ مِنَ اللهِ، بِمَا هُوَ صَائِرٌ إِلَيْهِ، فَلَيْسَ، ، شَيْءٌ أَحَبَّ إِلَيْهِ مِنْ أَنْ يَكُونَ قَدْ لَقِيَ اللهَ، فَأَحَبَّ اللهُ لِقَاءَهُ، وَإِنَّ الْفَاجِرَ، أَوِ الْكَافِرَ، إِذَا حُضِرَ جَاءَهُ بِمَا هُوَ صَائِرٌ إِلَيْهِ مِنَ الشَّرِّ، أَوْ مَا يَلْقَاهُ مِنَ الشَّرِّ، فَكَرِهَ لِقَاءَ اللهِ، وَكَرِهَ اللهُ لِقَاءَهُ " (١)،
Translation
English translation
It is narrated from Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: Whoever likes to meet Allah, Allah also likes to meet him, and whoever dislikes to meet Allah, Allah also dislikes to meet him. Upon hearing this, we said, "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him)! Each of us dislikes death." The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: This does not refer to the dislike of death, rather, when a believer is given glad tidings of a good end by an angel from Allah, then nothing becomes more beloved to him than meeting Allah, so Allah also likes to meet him. And when a disbeliever is given news of a bad end by an angel from Allah, he dislikes to meet Allah, so Allah also dislikes to meet him.
