[Machine] When Prophet Ibrahim ﷺ passed away, he met Allah (ﷻ) and was asked, "O Ibrahim, how did you find death?" He replied, "O Lord, I found my soul being extracted with difficulty." Allah (ﷻ) then said, "So we made it easier for you."  

الزهد لأحمد:٤١٠حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ أَخْبَرَنَا الصَّلْتُ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرٌ الضُّبَعِيُّ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ قَالَ

لَمَّا تُوُفِّيَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ لَقِيَ اللَّهَ ﷻ فَقِيلَ لَهُ يَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ كَيْفَ وَجَدْتَ الْمَوْتَ؟ قَالَ يَا رَبِّ وَجَدَتُ نَفْسِي تَنْزِعُ بِالْبَلَاءِ فَقِيلَ فَقَدْ هَوَّنَّا عَلَيْكَ
