Mu'jam Kabir Tabarani 3619 — I went to visit Sayyiduna Khabbab

حَدَّثَنَا الْمِقْدَامُ بْنُ دَاوُدَ، ثنا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مَعْبَدٍ، ثنا عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عَمْرٍو، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَبِي أُنَيْسَةَ، عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ أَبِي خَالِدٍ، عَنْ قَيْسِ بْنِ أَبِي حَازِمٍ، قَالَ: دَخَلْتُ عَلَى خَبَّابٍ أَعُودُهُ وَقَدِ اكْتَوَى فِي بَطْنِهِ سَبْعًا فَقَالَ خَبَّابٌ: «لَوْلَا أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَهَى أَنْ نَدْعُوَ بِالْمَوْتِ لَدَعَوْتُ بِهِ، أَلَا إِنَّ أَصْحَابَنَا مَضَوْا، وَلَمْ يُصِيبُوا مِنَ الدُّنْيَا شَيْئًا أَلَا، وَإِنَّا قَدْ أَصَبْنَا بَعْدَهُمْ حَتَّى لَمْ نَجِدْ لَهُ مَوْضِعًا إِلَّا فِي التُّرَابِ، إِنَّ الْمَرْءَ يُؤْجَرُ فِي نَفَقَتِهِ كُلِّهَا، إِلَّا فِي شَيْءٍ يَجْعَلُهُ فِي هَذَا التُّرَابِ» ، قَالَ: «وَهُوَ يَوْمَئِذٍ يَبْنِي حَائِطًا لَهُ»
Qays bin Abi Hazim (may Allah have mercy on him) narrated: I went to visit Sayyiduna Khabbab (may Allah be pleased with him) in his illness, and he had had himself cauterised in seven places on his belly. Khabbab (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "Had the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) not forbidden us to wish for death, I would have wished for it. Listen! Our companions passed away and received nothing of this world, while we, after them, have acquired so much that we find no place for it except in the earth. A man is rewarded for all of his spending, except for what he puts into this earth." The narrator said: At that time he was building a wall of his.
