English Translation

Hasan narrated to us, 'Abdullah ibn Lahi'ah narrated to us, Abu al-Zubayr Muhammad ibn Muslim — the mawla of Hakim ibn Hizam — narrated to us, from Jabir ibn Abdullah al-Ansari (رضي الله عنهما), the Companion of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ: "the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'Do not wish for death, for indeed the terror of the place where one stands (on the Day of Resurrection) is immense. And indeed, among the blessings of a person's long life is that Allah grants him repentance.'"
