Scholarly Commentary & Context

Synthesized commentary, isnad grading & cross-references

[Collection & Reference]: Narration #142 in Kitab al-Fitan (Nu'aym ibn Hammad).

[Scholarly Verification Notice]: Recorded in Nu'aym ibn Hammad's Kitab al-Fitan (d. 228 AH). Hadith scholars classify this historical compilation as ungraded and weak overall; its isolated reports are not accepted as established doctrine unless corroborated by standard Sahih works.

[Core Subject]: 'The Hour will not come until a man passes by another man's grave and says: I wish I were in his place.'

[Described Characteristics]: In a narration in Sahih Muslim he rolls over the grave saying it, and it is not religion that moves him but the hardship of his trials.

[Timeline & Context]: It has no fixed place in the order of the signs.

[Prophetic Practice]: Do not wish for death because of hardship. If you must, say: 'O Allah, keep me alive while life is better for me, and take me when death is better for me.'
