Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 39817 — Reports on the death of the Prophet

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) passed away, the people began to weep. At this Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) stood in the mosque to deliver a sermon and said: "Let me not hear of anyone claiming that he (peace and blessings be upon him) has passed away. Rather, his (peace and blessings be upon him) Lord has sent for him, just as his Lord sent for Musa. Allah Almighty sent for Musa, and he stayed (away) from his people for forty nights. By Allah! I firmly hope that the hands and feet of those men will be cut off who claim that death has come upon him (peace and blessings be upon him)."
