حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مَعْمَرٍ سَعِيدُ بْنُ خُثَيْمٍ حَدَّثَنَا حَنْظَلَةُ عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ كَانَ أَبِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ إِذَا أَتَى الرَّجُلَ وَهُوَ يُرِيدُ السَّفَرَ قَالَ لَهُ ادْنُ حَتَّى أُوَدِّعَكَ كَمَا كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُوَدِّعُنَا فَيَقُولُ أَسْتَوْدِعُ اللَّهَ دِينَكَ وَأَمَانَتَكَ وَخَوَاتِيمَ عَمَلِكَ
مسند امام احمد بن حنبل · Hadith 4524
It was narrated that Saalim ibn 'Abdullah said; If my father, 'Abdullah ibn 'Umar, met a man who was about to travel, he would say to him: Come close so that I may bid farewell to you as the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) used to bid farewell to us; he would say: "I entrust to Allah your religious commitment, your responsibilities and your final deeds."
