"عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ: إِنَّ أَبَا بَكْرٍ لَمَّا حَضَرَتهُ الْوَفَاةُ قَالَ: أىُّ يَوْمٍ هَذَا؟ قَالَوا: يَوْمُ الاثْنَيْنِ، قَالَ: فَإنْ مِتُّ مِنْ لَيْلِتى فَلَا تَنْتَظِروُا بِىَ الْغَدَ فَإِنَّ أَحَبَّ اللَّيَالِى وَالأَيَّامِ إِلىَّ أقْرَبُهَا مِنْ رَسُولِ الله ﷺ ".

Hisham bin 'Lirwah narrated to us from his father that ‘Aʼishah said; When Abu Bakr was dying, he said: What day is it? They said: Monday. He said: if I die tonight, do not wait until tomorrow to bury me, for the dearest of days and nights to me is that which is closest to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.
