Hadith 3284

عَنْ أُسَامَةَ بْنِ زَيْدٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا قَالَ: أَرْسَلَتْ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ بَعْضُ بَنَاتِهِ أَنَّ صَبِيًّا لَهَا ابْنًا أَوْ ابْنَةً قَدْ احْتُضِرَتْ فَاشْهَدْنَا، قَالَ: فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَيْهَا يَقْرَأُ لَهَا السَّلَامَ وَيَقُولُ: ((إِنَّ لِلَّهِ مَا أَخَذَ وَمَا أَعْطَى (وَفِي لَفْظٍ: لِلَّهِ مَا أَخَذَ وَلِلَّهِ مَا أَعْطَى) وَكُلُّ شَيْءٍ عِنْدَهُ إِلَى أَجَلٍ مُسَمَّى، فَلْتَصْبِرْ وَلْتَحْتَسِبْ))
Sayyiduna Usamah bin Zaid (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates that a daughter of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) sent a message to him that her son or daughter was near death, so he (peace and blessings be upon him) should come to them. But he (peace and blessings be upon him) sent greetings to them and (to console her) said: Surely, to Allah belongs what He takes and to Him belongs what He gives, and with Him everything has an appointed time, so (my daughter) she should be patient and hope for reward for it.
