عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا قَالَتْ: رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ يَمُوتُ، وَعِنْدَهُ قَدَحٌ فِيهِ مَاءٌ فَيُدْخِلُ يَدَهُ فِي الْقَدَحِ، ثُمَّ يَمْسَحُ وَجْهَهُ بِالْمَاءِ، ثُمَّ يَقُولُ: ((اللَّهُمَّ أَعِنِّي عَلَى سَكَرَاتِ الْمَوْتِ))
It is narrated from Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), she says: I saw the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) while he was passing away. There was a bowl near him, in which there was water. He (peace and blessings be upon him) would put his hand into the bowl, then wipe it over his face and supplicate: "O Allah, help me in the agonies of death."
