[Machine] When a man entered upon him and found him crying, he said, "What makes you cry, O Abu 'Ubaidah?" He said, "I cried because the Messenger of Allah ﷺ mentioned a day when Allah would grant victory to the Muslims and give them power over their enemies, and he mentioned Sham (Greater Syria). Then he said, 'If you live long enough, O Abu 'Ubaidah, you will see three servants who will serve you: a servant who will serve you, a servant who will travel with you, and a servant who will serve your family and look after them.' And you will have three animals that will carry your belongings: an animal for your luggage, an animal for your provisions, and another animal for your servant's provisions. Then he said, 'Now I am looking at my house, which is filling up with soft things. And I am looking at my stable, which is filling up with animals and horses. So how can I meet the Messenger of Allah ﷺ after this? Even though the Messenger of Allah ﷺ told me that you are the most beloved of people to me and the closest to me among them, to meet me in the same state in which I left you.'
