1452 - حَدَّثَنَا بَكْرُ بْنُ خَلَفٍ أَبُو بِشْرٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، عَنِ الْمُثَنَّى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ بُرَيْدَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «الْمُؤْمِنُ يَمُوتُ بِعَرَقِ الْجَبِينِ»

Commentary
One meaning of 'the perspiration of the forehead' is that a believer gets perspiration due to the agony of death to expiate for whatever is left of his sins, and another meaning is that a believer does not suffer with a great deal of pain while dying, rather he bears a little inconvenience that makes him just perspire.
