Arabic Text

‏ ‏وَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏ ‏صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ‏ ‏لَا يَتَمَنَّ أَحَدُكُمْ الْمَوْتَ وَلَا يَدْعُ بِهِ مِنْ قَبْلِ أَنْ يَأْتِيَهُ إِنَّهُ إِذَا مَاتَ أَحَدُكُمْ انْقَطَعَ عَمَلُهُ وَإِنَّهُ لَا يَزِيدُ الْمُؤْمِنُ مِنْ عُمْرِهِ إِلَّا خَيْرًا ‏

English Translation

the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'None of you should wish for death, nor should he pray for it before it comes to him. When one of you dies, his deeds come to an end, and indeed, the life of a believer only increases him in goodness.'
