Hadith 933
۞
4. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated in a marfu‘ manner the following: “When Dharr, son of abu Dharr passed away, abu Dharr wiped his grave with his hand and said, ‘
May Allah grant you mercy, O Dharr, by Allah, you were kind to me and I am satisfied with you. By Allah, I am not disappointed due to your death and I do not need anyone beside Allah. Had it not been for fear from the next life I would have been happy to be in your place. My sadness for you (my concern about your condition in the next life) has kept me from sadness due to your death. By Allah, I do not weep because of your death but I weep for you because of what you may face in the next life. I do not know what I have said about you and what is said about you.’ Then he said, ‘O Lord, I have waived in his favor my rights that You had set on him. Please waive in his favor Your rights on him; You are more generous than I.’”
4ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ رَفَعَهُ قَالَ لَمَّا مَاتَ ذَرُّ بْنُ أَبِي ذَرٍّ مَسَحَ أَبُو ذَرٍّ الْقَبْرَ بِيَدِهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ رَحِمَكَ الله يَا ذَرُّ وَالله إِنْ كُنْتَ بِي بَارّاً وَلَقَدْ قُبِضْتَ وَإِنِّي عَنْكَ لَرَاضٍ أَمَا وَالله مَا بِي فَقْدُكَ وَمَا عَلَيَّ مِنْ غَضَاضَةٍ وَمَا لِي إِلَى أَحَدٍ سِوَى الله مِنْ حَاجَةٍ وَلَوْ لاَ هَوْلُ الْمُطَّلَعِ لَسَرَّنِي أَنْ أَكُونَ مَكَانَكَ وَلَقَدْ شَغَلَنِي الْحُزْنُ لَكَ عَنِ الْحُزْنِ عَلَيْكَ وَالله مَا بَكَيْتُ لَكَ وَلَكِنْ بَكَيْتُ عَلَيْكَ فَلَيْتَ شِعْرِي مَا ذَا قُلْتَ وَمَا ذَا قِيلَ لَكَ ثُمَّ قَالَ اللهمَّ إِنِّي قَدْ وَهَبْتُ لَهُ مَا افْتَرَضْتَ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ حَقِّي فَهَبْ لَهُ مَا افْتَرَضْتَ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ حَقِّكَ فَأَنْتَ أَحَقُّ بِالْجُودِ مِنِّي.
