حَدَّثَنَا مُسْلِمٌ حَدَّثَنَا هَمَّامٌ عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي طَلْحَةَ عَنْ أَنَسٍ قَالَ خَطَّ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ خُطُوطًا فَقَالَ هَذَا الْأَمَلُ وَهَذَا أَجَلُهُ فَبَيْنَمَا هُوَ کَذَلِکَ إِذْ جَائَهُ الْخَطُّ الْأَقْرَبُ
صحیح بخاری · Hadith 6418
Narrated Anas bin Malik: The Prophet drew a few lines and said, "This is (man's) hope, and this is the instant of his death, and while he is in this state (of hope), the nearer line (death) comes to Him."
