[Machine] When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ would send out an army, he would reach 'Aqabah al-Wada', and say, "I entrust Allah with your religion, your trustworthiness, and the ends of your deeds." One day, a man appeared wearing a patched garment. The Prophet ﷺ faced the direction of the rising sun, placed both his hands upon his cheeks, and extended his hands. He said, "You are today the best of people, since the world faces you. You are today the best of people, since the world faces you." The man said, "Should I not weep, especially after I have remained until I saw you and the Muslims covering their homes like the covering of the Ka'bah?"  

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِذَا شَيَّعَ جَيْشًا فَبَلَغَ عَقَبَةَ الْوَدَاعِ قَالَ «أَسْتَوْدِعُ اللَّهَ دِينَكُمْ وَأَمَانَتَكُمْ وَخَوَاتِيمَ أَعْمَالِكُمْ» فَرَأَى رَجُلًا ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ قَدْ رَقَّعَ بُرْدَةً لَهُ بِقِطْعَةِ فَرْوٍ قَالَ فَاسْتَقْبَلَ مَطْلِعَ الشَّمْسِ وَقَالَ بِيَدِهِ وَصَفَ حَمَّادٌ بِبَطْنِ الْكَفَّيْنِ وَمَدَّ بِيَدِهِ «تَطَالَعَتْ عَلَيْكُمُ الدُّنْيَا تَطَالَعَتْ عَلَيْكُمُ الدُّنْيَا» أَيْ أَقْبَلَتْ حَتَّى ظَنَنَّا أَنْ تَقَعَ عَلَيْنَا ثُمَّ قَالَ «أَنْتُمُ الْيَوْمَ خَيْرٌ أَمَّا إِذَا غَدَتْ عَلَيْكُمْ قَصْعَةٌ وَرَاحَتْ أُخْرَى وَيَغْدُو أَحَدُكُمْ فِي حُلَّةٍ وَيَرُوحُ فِي أُخْرَى وَتُسْتَرُ بُيُوتُكُمْ كَمَا تُسْتَرُ الْكَعْبَةُ» قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ أَفَلَا أَبْكِي وَقَدْ بَقِيتُ حَتَّى رَأَيْتُكُمْ تَسْتُرُونَ بُيُوتَكُمْ كَمَا تُسْتَرُ الْكَعْبَةُ؟
