adab:1282

Abu'l-Malih reported from one of his people (who was a Companion) that the Prophet ﷺ said, "When Allah wants one of His slaves to die in some land, he makes him have a reason for going there."

الأدب المفرد:١٢٨٢حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ عَنْ أَيُّوبَ عَنْ أَبِي الْمَلِيحِ

عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ قَوْمِهِ وَكَانَتْ لَهُ صُحْبَةٌ قَالَ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِذَا أَرَادَ اللَّهُ قَبْضَ عَبْدٍ بِأَرْضٍ جَعَلَ لَهُ بِهَا حَاجَةً
