عن أم سلمة رضي الله عنها

قالت: دخل رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم علي أبي سلمه وقد شق بصره فأغمضه، ثم قال: «إن الروح إذا قبض، تبعه البصر«فضج ناس من أهله، فقال: «لا تدعو علي أنفسكم إلا بخير فإن الملائكة يؤمنون علي ما تقولون» ثم قال: «اللهم اغفر لأبي سلمه، وارفع درجته في المهديين، واخلفه في عقبه في الغابرين، واغفر لنا وله يا رب العالمين، وافسح له في قبره، ونور له فيه»

The Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) visited Abu Salamah (radiyallahu anhu) when his eyes were open soon after he died. He closed them (the eyes) for him and said, “When the soul is taken away, the sight follows it.” Some members of his family began to weep.

He (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) said: “Do not supplicate for yourselves anything but good, for the angels say ‘amin’ to what you say.” Then he said, “O Allah! Forgive Abu Salamah, raise his rank among those who are rightly-guided and grant him a successor from his descendants who remain behind. Grant him pardon and us, too. O Rubb of the worlds. Make his grave spacious for him and give him light in it.”.
