وعن عبد الله بن عمرو بن العاص
رضي الله عنهما، قال: مر علينا رسول الله، صلى الله عليه وسلم، ونحن نعالج خصاً لنا فقال: «ما هذا؟ «فقلنا: قد وهي، فنحن نصلحه، فقال: «ما أرى الأمر إلا أعجل من ذلك»
We were repairing our thatchy hut when Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) passed by and asked us, “What are you doing?” We said, “The thatch had gone weak and we are repairing it.” He (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) said, “I see the sure thing (death) approaching sooner than this.”.
