It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man had wealth with which he had never done any good. When death came to him, he said to his family: When I die, burn me, then grind (my ashes), then scatter them in the wind. So that was done to him. Then Allah gathered him together and said: What made you do what you did? He said: Fear of You. So the mercy of Allah reached him.
