[Machine] While we were with the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , he noticed a group and asked, "Why have these people gathered?" It was said, "They are digging a grave." Upon hearing this, the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , became alarmed and hurriedly went ahead with his companions until he reached the grave. He sat beside it and I stood in front of him to see what he would do. He wept until the ground became wet with his tears. Then, he turned towards us and said, "O my brothers, why have you prepared yourselves for a day like this?"  

بَيْنَمَا نَحْنُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ إِذْ بَصُرَ بِجَمَاعَةٍ فَقَالَ عَلَامَ اجْتَمَعَ عَلَيْهِ هَؤُلَاءِ؟ قِيلَ عَلَى قَبْرٍ يَحْفِرُونَهُ قَالَ فَفَزِعَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَبَدَرَ بَيْنَ يَدَيْ أَصْحَابِهِ مُسْرِعًا حَتَّى انْتَهَى إِلَى الْقَبْرِ فَجَثَا عَلَيْهِ قَالَ فَاسْتَقْبَلْتُهُ مِنْ بَيْنِ يَدَيْهِ لِأَنْظُرَ مَا يَصْنَعُ فَبَكَى حَتَّى بَلَّ الثَّرَى مِنْ دُمُوعِهِ ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ عَلَيْنَا قَالَ أَيْ إِخْوَانِي لِمِثْلِ الْيَوْمِ فَأَعِدُّوا؟
