عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ((لَمْ يَلْقَ ابْنُ آدَمَ شَيْئًا قَطُّ خَلَقَهُ اللَّهُ أَشَدَّ عَلَيْهِ مِنَ الْمَوْتِ ثُمَّ إِنَّ الْمَوْتَ لَأَهْوَنُ مِمَّا بَعْدَهُ))
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: Of all the things that Allah Almighty has created, the hardest for the son of Adam is death, and yet death is much easier compared to the stages that follow it.
