Hadith 13697

(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ ، فَذَكَرَ حَدِيثًا ، قَالَ : وَأَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أَبِي بَكْرٍ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : " هَذَا ابْنُ آدَمَ ، وَهَذَا أَجَلُهُ ، وَثَمَّ أَمَلُهُ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) placed his fingers on the ground and said: "This is the son of Adam." Then he lifted them and placed them a little behind and said: "This is his death." Then he moved his hand forward and said three times: "These are his hopes."
