حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ بْنِ أَبِي الشَّوَارِبِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ بْنُ زِيَادٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا عَاصِمٌ الْأَحْوَلُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أُسَامَةَ بْنِ زَيْدٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ كَانَ ابْنٌ لِبَعْضِ بَنَاتِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقْضِي، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَأَرْسَلَتْ إِلَيْهِ أَنْ يَأْتِيَهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَيْهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَنَّ لِلَّهِ مَا أَخَذَ وَلَهُ مَا أَعْطَى، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَكُلُّ شَيْءٍ عِنْدَهُ إِلَى أَجَلٍ مُسَمًّى، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَلْتَصْبِرْ وَلْتَحْتَسِبْ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَأَرْسَلَتْ إِلَيْهِ فَأَقْسَمَتْ عَلَيْهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَامَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَقُمْتُ مَعَهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَمَعَهُ مُعَاذُ بْنُ جَبَلٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَأُبَيُّ بْنُ كَعْبٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَعُبَادَةُ بْنُ الصَّامِتِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَلَمَّا دَخَلْنَا نَاوَلُوا الصَّبِيَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَرُوحُهُ تَقَلْقَلُ فِي صَدْرِهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَسِبْتُهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ كَأَنَّهَا شَنَّةٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ فَبَكَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ لَهُ عُبَادَةُ بْنُ الصَّامِتِ:‏‏‏‏ مَا هَذَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ؟، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ الرَّحْمَةُ الَّتِي جَعَلَهَا اللَّهُ فِي بَنِي آدَمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَإِنَّمَا يَرْحَمُ اللَّهُ مِنْ عِبَادِهِ الرُّحَمَاءَ .

“The son of one of the daughters of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was dying. She sent for him, asking him to come to her, and he sent word to her, saying: ‘To Allah belongs what He has taken and to Him belongs what He has given. Everything has an appointed time with Him, so be patient and seek reward.’ But she sent for him again, adjuring him to come. So the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) got up, and I got up with him, as did Mu’adh bin Jabal, Ubayy bin Ka’b and ‘Ubadah bin Samit رضی اللہ عنہم . When we entered they handed the child to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), and his soul was rattling in his chest.” I think he was that it was like a water skin. “The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) wept, and ‘Ubadah bin Samit رضی اللہ عنہ said to him: ‘What is this, O Messenger of Allah?’ He said: ‘It is compassion which Allah has created in the son of Adam. Allah only shows mercy to those of His slaves who are compassionate.’”
