1067. Sa’d bin Hishām narrated that ‘Aīshah mentioned that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: “Whoever loves to meet Allāh, then Allāh loves to meet him. And whoever dislikes meeting Allāh, then Allāh dislikes meeting him.” She said: “O Messenger of Allāh! All of us dislike death.” He said: “It is not like that. But when the believer is given the good news of Allāh’s mercy, His pleasure, and His Paradise, then he loves to meet Allāh and Allāh loves to meet him. Whereas when the disbeliever is given the news of Allāh’s punishment and
His wrath, he dislikes meeting Allāh, and Allāh dislikes meeting him.”

Commentary
It is proven from this narration that liking and disliking to meet Allāh ﷻ depends not only on the normal lifestyle, but also on the state of mind at the time of the last breath when good news of mercy of Allāh ﷻ or bad news of punishment is conveyed.
