Ḥadīth | Ṭabarānī (الطبراني) tabarani:8892 حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُسْلِمٍ ثنا عَبْدُ اللهِ ثنا الْمَسْعُودِيُّ عَنْ عَوْنٍ قَالَ لَمَّا أَتَتْ عَبْدَ اللهِ وَفَاةُ عُتْبَةَ بَكَى فَقِيلَ لَهُ تَبْكِي؟ قَالَ «كَانَ أَخِي فِي النَّسَبِ وَصَاحِبِي مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَمَا أُحِبُّ مَعَ ذَلِكَ أَنِّي كُنْتُ قَبْلَهُ لِأَنْ يَمُوتَ فَأَحْتَسِبَهُ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ أَنْ أَمُوتَ فَيَحْتَسِبَنِي»
الترجمة الإنجليزية
When Abdullah received news of the death of Utbah, he wept. It was said to him: 'You weep?' He said: 'He was my brother in lineage and my companion with the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him. Despite that, I would not have wished to have died before him, for his dying so that I may seek reward for his loss is more beloved to me than my dying so that he seeks reward for mine.'
