4263. It was narrated from ‘Abdullâh bin Mas’ud that the Prophet ﷺ said: “If the appointed time of death of anyone of you is in a certain land, some need will cause him to go there, then when he reaches the furthest point that it is decreed he will reach, Allâh takes (his soul). And on the Day of Resurrection the earth will say: ‘My Lord, this is what You entrusted to me.’” (Sahih)

Commentary
Allâh’s knowledge is complete and perfect; He knows where a person will die, while the person himself does not know it. Allâh says: “And no soul perceives what it will earn tomorrow, and no soul perceives in what land it will die. Indeed, Allâh is Knowing and Acquainted.” Surat Luqmân 31:34.
