Bayhaqi 7129 — Encouragement to find consolation in what Allah

أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، أنبأ أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ الْقَاسِمُ بْنُ الْقَاسِمِ السَّيَّارِيُّ، بِمَروٍ، ثنا أَبُو الْمُوَجِّهِ، أنبأ عَبْدَانُ، أنبأ عَبْدُ اللهِ، أنبأ عَاصِمُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ الْأَحْوَلُ، عَنْ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي أُسَامَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ قَالَ: أَرْسَلَتِ ابْنَةُ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّ ابْنِي قُبِضَ فَأْتِنَا، فَأَرْسَلَ يُقْرِئُ السَّلَامَ وَيَقُولُ: " إِنَّ لِلَّهِ مَا أَخَذَ وَلَهُ مَا أَعْطَى وَكُلٌّ عِنْدَهُ بِأَجَلٍ مُسَمًّى فَلْتَصْبِرْ وَلْتَحْتَسِبْ "، فَأَرْسَلَتْ إِلَيْهِ تُقْسِمُ لَيَأْتِيَنَّهَا فَقَامَ وَمَعَهُ سَعْدُ بْنُ عُبَادَةَ وَرَجُلٌ فَدُفِعَ إِلَى رَسُولِ ⦗١٠٩⦘ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الصَّبِيُّ وَنَفْسُهُ تَقَعْقَعُ حَسِبْتُ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: كَأَنَّهَا شَنٌّ فَفَاضَتْ عَيْنَاهُ فَقَالَ سَعْدٌ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مَا هَذَا؟ قَالَ: " هَذِهِ رَحْمَةٌ جَعَلَهَا اللهُ فِي قُلُوبِ عِبَادِهِ وَإِنَّمَا يَرْحَمُ اللهُ مِنْ عِبَادِهِ الرُّحَمَاءَ " رَوَاهُ الْبُخَارِيُّ فِي الصَّحِيحِ عَنْ عَبْدَانَ، وَأَخْرَجَهُ مُسْلِمٌ مِنْ أَوْجُهٍ عَنْ عَاصِمٍ.
Sayyiduna Usamah bin Zayd (may Allah be pleased with them both) said that a daughter of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) sent him a message: "My son has died; please come to us." He (peace and blessings be upon him) sent back a message: "He conveys his greeting of peace to you, and says that to Allah belongs what He took and to Him belongs what He gave, and everything with Him has an appointed term, so be patient and hope for the reward." Then she sent to him, swearing that he must come to her. So he (peace and blessings be upon him) got up, and with him were Sayyiduna Sa'd bin Ubadah (may Allah be pleased with him) and another man. The child was handed to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) while his breath was rattling; I think he said: as if it were an old waterskin. His (peace and blessings be upon him) eyes overflowed with tears. Sayyiduna Sa'd (may Allah be pleased with him) said: O Messenger of Allah, what is this? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "This is mercy that Allah has placed in the hearts of His servants, and Allah shows mercy only to those of His servants who are merciful."
