عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ السَّائِبِ قَالَ: كَانَ أَوَّلُ يَوْمٍ عَرَفْتُ فِيهِ عَبْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنَ أَبِي لَيْلَى رَأَيْتُ شَيْخًا أَبْيَضَ الرَّأْسِ وَاللِّحْيَةِ عَلَى حِمَارٍ وَهُوَ يَتْبَعُ جَنَازَةً فَسَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ، حَدَّثَنِي فُلَانُ بْنُ فُلَانٍ، سَمِعَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: ((مَنْ أَحَبَّ لِقَاءَ اللَّهِ أَحَبَّ اللَّهُ لِقَاءَهُ وَمَنْ كَرِهَ لِقَاءَ اللَّهِ كَرِهَ اللَّهُ لِقَاءَهُ))، قَالَ: فَأَكَبَّ الْقَوْمُ يَبْكُونَ، فَقَالَ: ((مَا يُبْكِيكُمْ؟)) فَقَالُوا: إِنَّا نَكْرَهُ الْمَوْتَ، قَالَ: ((لَيْسَ ذَلِكَ وَلَٰكِنَّهُ إِذَا حُضِرَ، {فَأَمَّا إِنْ كَانَ مِنَ الْمُقَرَّبِينَ، فَرَوْحٌ وَرَيْحَانٌ وَجَنَّةُ نَعِيمٍ} فَإِذَا بُشِّرَ بِذَلِكَ أَحَبَّ لِقَاءَ اللَّهِ وَاللَّهُ لِلِقَاءِهِ أَحَبُّ، {وَأَمَّا إِنْ كَانَ مِنَ الْمُكَذِّبِينَ الضَّالِّينَ، فَنُزُلٌ مِنْ حَمِيمٍ} قَالَ عَطَاءٌ (يَعْنِي ابْنَ السَّائِبِ) وَفِي قِرَاءَةِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ: {ثُمَّ تَصْلِيَةُ جَحِيمٍ} فَإِذَا بُشِّرَ بِذَلِكَ يَكْرَهُ لِقَاءَ اللَّهِ وَاللَّهُ لِلقَاءِهِ أَكْرَهُ))
Ata bin Saib says: The first day on which I became acquainted with Abdur Rahman bin Abi Laila happened like this: I saw an elderly man riding a donkey, his head and beard hair were white, and he was walking behind a funeral procession and narrating: So-and-so son of so-and-so companion narrated to me that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: Whoever loves to meet Allah, Allah also loves to meet him. Upon hearing this, the people began to weep. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, asked: Why are you weeping? The people said: We all dislike death (which means we do not like to meet Allah). The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: It is not like that. When someone's death approaches, if he is among the close servants of Allah, then for him there is comfort, fragrance, and a garden of blessings. So when he is given glad tidings of these things, he begins to love meeting Allah, and Allah desires his meeting even more. But if that person is among the deniers and the misguided, then his hospitality is scalding water, and then he is to enter the blazing fire. So when he is given the news of these things, he begins to dislike meeting Allah, and Allah also greatly dislikes meeting him.
