حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ أَبِي عُبَيْدَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ إِذَا أَوَى إِلَى فِرَاشِهِ، وَضَعَ يَدَهُ تَحْتَ خَدِّهِ، وَقَالَ: " اللهُمَّ قِنِي عَذَابَكَ يَوْمَ تَبْعَثُ عِبَادَكَ " (٣)،

It was narrated that 'Abdullah (رضي الله عنه) said:
Umm Habeebah said: O Allah, let me have the joy of the company of my husband the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), and my brother Mu'awiyah, and my father Abu Sufyan (alI my life), The Prophet (ﷺ) said: "You have asked Allah about lifespans that have already been determined, limits that have already been set and provisions that have already been allotted. None of them will be brought forward before its due time or delayed beyond its due time. If you had asked Allah to grant you refuge from punishment in the grave or punishment in the Fire, (that would have been better and preferable).” And the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was asked about monkeys and pigs - were they (descendents of) those who had been transformed or were they some other creation that existed before that? He said: “No, rather they existed before that, Verily Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, does not doom a people then give them offspring."
