بَابُ مَا جَاءَ فِي مَوْتِ الْفُجَاةِChapter on What Has Been Reported Regarding Sudden Death
Hadith 7808
اُردوEn
عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا قَالَتْ سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ مَوْتِ الْفَجْأَةِ فَقَالَ رَاحَةٌ لِلْمُؤْمِنِ وَأَخْذَةُ أَسَفٍ لِفَاجِرٍ
Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates that I asked the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) about sudden death. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Such a death is a source of comfort for the believer and a cause of Allah's wrath for the wicked.
Brief Explanation
Benefits: … Since a believer adopts such a way of life that he is always prepared for death, sudden death becomes a means of mercy for him, as he was engaged in good deeds in a state of health and well-being when Allah Ta'ala called him to Himself. Imam Ghazali rahimahullah said: For the one who was prepared for death, this death is a means of relief, and for the one who was not prepared, it is a burden. (Ihya’ ‘Ulum) Imam Nawawi rahimahullah said: Sudden death is a relief for those who fear Allah. (Tahdhib)
