English translation

6510. Narrated ‘Aishah رضي الله عنها: There was a leather or wood container full of water in front of Allāh’s Messenger ﷺ (at the time of his death). He would put his hand into the water and rub his face with it, saying, “Lā ilāha illallāh (none has the right to be worshipped but Allāh)! No doubt, death has its stupors.” Then he raised his hand and started saying, “(O Allāh!) with the highest companion” (and kept on saying it) till he expired and his hand dropped. [See Qur’an V.4:69.]

٦٥١٠ - حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدِ بْنِ مَيْمُونٍ: حَدَّثَنَا عِيسَى بْنُ يُونُسَ، عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي ابْنُ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ: أَنَّ أَبَا عَمْرٍو ذَكْوَانَ مَوْلَى عَائِشَةَ أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ عَائِشَةَ ﵂ كَانَتْ تَقُولُ: «إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ رَكْوَةٌ أَوْ عُلْبَةٌ فِيهَا مَاءٌ، يَشُكُّ عُمَرُ، فَجَعَلَ يُدْخِلُ يَدَيْهِ فِي الْمَاءِ فَيَمْسَحُ بِهِمَا وَجْهَهُ وَيَقُولُ: لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ إِنَّ لِلْمَوْتِ سَكَرَاتٍ. ثُمَّ نَصَبَ يَدَهُ فَجَعَلَ يَقُولُ: فِي الرَّفِيقِ الْأَعْلَى. حَتَّى قُبِضَ وَمَالَتْ يَدُهُ.»
