Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "A time will surely come upon you when a man will pass by a grave and say: 'Would that I were in his place!' It will not be love of meeting Allah, but the severity of the affliction he is witnessing." It was asked: "What will be best at that time?" He said: "A strong horse and weapons, with which a man can get away wherever he wishes."
