hadith 39
Imam Ali (AS) said, The appointed time of death is [already] determined and sustenance is [already] apportioned, so let not any of you grieve its reduction; for verily greed does not expedite it and self-restraint does not delay it, and it behoves a believer to be patient.
الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) : اَلأجلُ مَحْتُومٌ والرِّزْقُ مَقْسُومٌ فلا يَغُمَّنَّ أحَدَكُمْ إبطاؤُهُ فإنَّ الحِرْصَ لايُقَدِّمُهُ وَ العَفافُ لا يُؤَخِّرُهُ والمُؤمِنُ بالتَّحَمُّلِ (بِالتَّجَمُّلِ) خَليقٌ

hadith 92
Imam Ali (AS) said, Verily there is a shield over me, in the form of my appointed time of death, which protects me; so when my day comes, it relieves itself of me and surrenders me [to death]. At this time the arrow will not miss its target and the wound will not heal.
الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) : إنَّ عَلَىَّ مِنْ أجَلي جُنَّةً حَصينَةً فَإذا جاءَ يَومِي انْفَرَجَت عَنّي وَأسْلَمَتْني فَحينَئذ لا يَطيشُ السَّهْمُ وَ لا يَبْرَءُ الكَلِمُ
