Hadith 124

(The book) ‘Al Kafi’ – Al-Husayn Bin Muhammad, from Abdullah Bin Aamir, from Ali Bin Mahziyar, from Al-Hassan Bin Muhammad Bin Mahziyar, from Quteyba Al A’asha who said, ‘I went over to Abu Abdullah-asws to comfort him-asws for a son of his-asws (who was sick), and I found him-asws at the door, and he-asws was worried, in grief. I said, ‘May I be sacrificed for you-asws! How is the child? ’ He-asws said: ‘By Allah-azwj! He is still with it’. Then he-asws entered (the house) and remained for a while, then came out to us, and his face had turned pale, the change and the grief had gone. He (the narrator) said, ‘I hoped he had become better, so I said, ‘How is the child, may I be sacrificed for you-asws? ’ He-asws said: ‘And he has gone to His-azwj Way’. I said, ‘May I be sacrificed for you-asws! When he was alive you-asws were worried, in grief, and I see your-asws state at this time and he has died, and it is other than that state. How can this be so? ’
He-asws said: ‘We-asws, the People-asws of the Household, we-asws panic before the difficulty (bereavement). When the Command of Allah-azwj occurs, we-asws are pleased with it and submit to His-azwj Command’’. [152]
