[Machine] I heard the Prophet of Allah ﷺ saying, "There was a servant among the servants of Allah to whom Allah gave wealth and children. He did not worship Allah sincerely until he reached a point in his life where his age decreased and he had a clear understanding. He knew that nothing would remain with Allah except what is good. So he called his sons and asked them, 'My children, what kind of father do you know me to be?' They replied, 'You are the best of fathers, O our father.' He said, 'By Allah, I will not leave any of my wealth with any of you except that I take it for myself. And you shall indeed do as I command you.' He took a covenant from them by the Lord of Muhammad. He said, 'If I die, then throw me into the fire until I become coal. Then crush me and scatter me in the wind.' He said, 'It is as if I can see the Messenger of Allah ﷺ holding his hand on his thigh and then let me go in the wind so that Allah may misguide me.' They did that to him. And by the Lord of Muhammad! When he died, he was brought to his Lord in the best manner he had ever been. He was presented before his Lord and his Lord said to him, 'What made you fear the fire?' He said, 'O my Lord, it was fear of You.' He said, 'I heard you to be a religious monk, so I forgave you.'"
سَمِعْتُ نَبِيَّ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ إِنَّهُ كَانَ عَبْدٌ مِنْ عِبَادِ اللهِ أَعْطَاهُ اللهُ مَالًا وَوَلَدًا فَكَانَ لَا يَدِينُ اللهَ دِينًا فَلَبِثَ حَتَّى إِذَا ذَهَبَ مِنْهُ عُمُرٌ وَبَقِيَ عُمُرٌ تَذَكَّرَ فَعَلِمَ أَنْ لَنْ يَبْتَئِرَ عِنْدَ اللهِ خَيْرًا دَعَا بَنِيهِ فَقَالَ أَيَّ أَبٍ تَعْلَمُونِي؟ قَالُوا خَيْرَهُ يَا أَبَانَا قَالَ فَوَاللهِ لَا أَدَعُ عِنْدَ أَحَدٍ مِنْكُمْ مَالًا هُوَ مِنِّي إِلَّا أَنَا آخِذُهُ مِنْهُ وَلَتَفْعَلُنَّ بِي مَا آمُرُكُمْ قَالَ فَأَخَذَ مِنْهُمْ مِيثَاقًا وَرَبِّي فَقَالَ إِمَّا لَا فَإِذَا أَنَا مُتُّ فَأَلْقُونِي فِي النَّارِ حَتَّى إِذَا كُنْتُ حُمَمًا فَدُقُّونِي قَالَ فَكَأَنِّي أَنْظُرُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ بِيَدِهِ عَلَى فَخِذِهِ ثُمَّ اذْرُونِي فِي الرِّيحِ لَعَلِّي أَضِلُّ اللهَ قَالَ فَفَعَلُوا ذَلِكَ بِهِ وَرَبِّ مُحَمَّدٍ حِينَ مَاتَ فَجِيءَ بِهِ فِي أَحْسَنِ مَا كَانَ قَطُّ فَعُرِضَ عَلَى رَبِّهِ فَقَالَ مَا حَمَلَكَ عَلَى النَّارِ؟ قَالَ خَشْيَتُكَ يَا رَبَّاهُ قَالَ إِنِّي أَسْمَعُكَ لَرَاهِبًا فَتِيبَ عَلَيْهِ
