"When a young daughter of the Messenger of Allah was dying, the Messenger of Allah picked her up and held her to his chest, then he put his hand on her, and she died in front of the Messenger of Allah. Umm Ayman wept and the Messenger of Allah said 'Oh Umm Ayman, do you weep while the Messenger of Allah is with you?' She said: 'Why shouldn't I weep when the Messenger of Allah is weeping." So the Messenger of Allah said "Verily, I am not weeping. Rather it is compassion.' Then the Messenger of Allah said: 'The believer is fine whatever the situation; even when his soul is being pulled from his body and he praises Allah, the Mighty and Sublime"'
أَخْبَرَنَا هَنَّادُ بْنُ السَّرِيِّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْأَحْوَصِ عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ السَّائِبِ عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ
حُضِرَتِ ابْنَةٌ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ صَغِيرَةٌ فَأَخَذَهَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَضَمَّهَا إِلَى صَدْرِهِ ثُمَّ وَضَعَ يَدَيْهِ عَلَيْهَا وَقُبِضَتْ وَهِيَ بَيْنَ يَدَيْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَبَكَتْ أُمُّ أَيْمَنَ فَقَالَ لَهَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «يَا أُمَّ أَيْمَنَ أَتَبْكِينَ وَرَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عِنْدَكَ؟» فَقَالَتْ مَا لِي لَا أَبْكِي وَرَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَبْكِي فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِنِّي لَسْتُ أَبْكِي وَلَكِنَّهَا رَحْمَةٌ ثُمَّ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الْمُؤْمِنُ بِخَيْرٍ عَلَى كُلِّ حَالٍ تُنْزَعُ نَفْسُهُ مِنْ بَيْنِ جَنْبَيْهِ وَهُوَ يَحْمَدُ اللهَ قَالَ لَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَطَاءُ بْنُ السَّائِبِ كَانَ قَدِ اخْتَلَطَ وَأَثْبَتُ النَّاسِ فِيهِ سُفْيَانُ الثَّوْرِيُّ وَشُعْبَةُ بْنُ الْحَجَّاجِ

"O my father, how close he is now to his Lord! O my father, we announce the news (of his death) to Jibril! O my father, Jannat Al-Firdawas is now his abode!"
أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ عَنْ ثَابِتٍ عَنْ أَنَسٍ
أَنَّ فَاطِمَةَ بَكَتْ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ حِينَ مَاتَ فَقَالَتْ «يَا أَبَتَاهُ مِنْ رَبِّهِ مَا أَدْنَاهُ يَا أَبَتَاهُ إِلَى جِبْرِيلَ أَنْعَاهُ يَا أَبَتَاهُ جَنَّةُ الْفِرْدَوْسِ مَأْوَاهُ»

"I started to uncover his face, weeping. The people told me not to do that but the Messenger of Allah did not forbid me. My paternal aunt started to weep, and the Messenger of Allah said: 'Do not weep, for angels kept on shading him with their wings until you lifted him up."'
أَخْبَرَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ يَزِيدَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا بَهْزُ بْنُ أَسَدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْمُنْكَدِرِ عَنْ جَابِرٍ أَنَّ أَبَاهُ قُتِلَ يَوْمَ أُحُدٍ فَجَعَلْتُ أَكْشِفُ
عَنْ وَجْهِهِ وَأَبْكِي وَالنَّاسُ يَنْهَوْنِي وَرَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَا يَنْهَانِي وَجَعَلَتٍ عَمَّتِي تَبْكِيهِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «لَا تَبْكِيهِ مَا زَالَتِ الْمَلَائِكَةُ تُظِلُّهُ بِأَجْنِحَتِهَا حَتَّى رَفَعْتُمُوهُ»
