Mukhtasar Muslim (Abridged) 1884 — Dislike of wishing for death due

Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: None of you should wish for death because of any calamity or affliction that befalls him. If he must wish, then he should say: O Allah! Keep me alive as long as life is better for me, and cause me to die when death is better for me.
