Original Arabic

حَدَّثَنَا حَسَنُ بْنُ مُوسَى، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ عَمَّارِ بْنِ أَبِي عَمَّارٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، وَثَابِتٍ الْبُنَانِيِّ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ: أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، كَانَ يَخْطُبُ إِلَى جِذْعِ نَخْلَةٍ، فَلَمَّا اتَّخَذَ الْمِنْبَرَ تَحَوَّلَ إِلَى الْمِنْبَرِ، فَحَنَّ الْجِذْعُ حَتَّى أَتَاهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَاحْتَضَنَهُ فَسَكَنَ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " لَوْ لَمْ أَحْتَضِنْهُ، لَحَنَّ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ " (١)،

English translation

It was narrated that Ibn 'Abbas said:

The Prophet (ﷺ) came to one of his daughters when she was dying, and he held her in his lap until she died. Then his eyes filled with tears and Umm Aiman wept. It was said to her: Are you weeping in the presence of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)? She said: Why shouldn't I weep when the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) is weeping? He said: "I did not weep; this is compassion. Verily, the believer's soul departs from his body whilst he is praising Allah, may He be glorified and exalted."
