[Machine] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying and the Prophet ﷺ looked at the Angel of Death, ﷺ , by the head of a man from the Ansar, and said, "O Angel of Death, be kind to my companion, for he is a believer." The Angel of Death, ﷺ , said, "Calm his soul, soothe his eyes, and know that I am a companion to every believer. And know, O Muhammad, that I am the one who takes the soul of the son of Adam. So when he screams, a scream comes from his people, I rise in his home with his soul. I ask, "What is this scream?" By Allah, we did not wrong him, nor did we postpone his appointed time, nor did we hasten his fate. And we have no sin on him in his death. If you are satisfied with what Allah has done, you will be rewarded. And if you are saddened and resentful, you will sin and be supported. We have no grievances against you, and we have a return to you over and over again, so be careful. And there is no household, O Muhammad, whether they have a strand of hair, a patch of land, a plain or a mountain, except that I visit them every day and night. For I know the young and old among them better than themselves. By Allah, O Muhammad, if I wanted to take the soul of a mosquito, I would not be able to until Allah gives permission for its demise." Ja'far informed me that he was told that the Angel of Death only visits people at the times of prayer. So when he looks at someone at the time of death, if he was someone who maintained the prayers, the Angel of Death draws near to him, pushes away Satan, and teaches him that there is no god but Allah and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah. And that is the great situation.
