علي بن النعمان عن ابن مسكان عن داود بن أبي يزيد عن أبي شيبة الزهري عن أبي جعفر عليه السلام قال: قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله الموت الموت جاء الموت بما فيه جاء بالروح والراحة والكرة المباركة إلى جنة عالية لأهل دار الخلود الذين كان لها سعيهم وفيها رغبتهم وجاء الموت بما فيه جاء بالشقوة والندامة والكرة الخاسرة إلى نار حامية لأهل دار الغرور الذين كان لها سعيهم وفيها رغبتهم وقال عليه السلام: إذا استحقت ولاية الشيطان والشقاوة جاء الأمل بين العينين وذهب الاجل وراء الظهر، قال: وقال: سئل رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله: أي المؤمنين أكيس؟ قال: أكثرهم ذكرا للموت وأشدهم له استعدادا.
4.Alī ibn al-Nuʿmān narrated from Ibn Muskān, from Dāwūd ibn Abī Yazīd, from Abū Shaybah al-Zuhrī, from Abū Jaʿfar (a) who said, “The Messenger of Allah (ṣ) said, ‘Death! Death! Death comes with whatever is in it; it brings comfort and ease, and a blessed return to the lofty heavens for the people of the eternal abode – those who had struggled for it and yearned for it. And death comes with whatever is in it; it brings wretchedness and regret, and a return of [great] loss to a scorching fire for the people of the abode of delusion – those who strived for it and yearned for it.’” And he (a) said, “When the guardianship of Satan and wretchedness is deserved, aspiration comes in front of the eyes and [remembrance of] death goes behind the back.” He [also] said, 'The Messenger of Allah (ṣ) was asked, ‘Who among the believers are cleverer?’ He said, ‘Those among them who remember death more often and make more intense preparations for it.’”
