On the authority of Abu Hurayrah, may Allah be pleased with him, who said that the Messenger of Allah - صلى الله عليه وسلم - said:
“Frequently remember the destroyer of life’s pleasures; death.”
[Collected by at Tirmidhi and an Nasaa-ee and declared authentic by Ibn Hibbaan]
The print on ‘Umar ibn al Khataab’s ring was: “Sufficient is death as an admonisher O ‘Umar.”
[Al Isti’aab fee Ma’rifat al As-haab by ibn ‘Abdil Bar.]
Abu Bakr ibn ‘Ubayd stated…Swayd ibn ‘Amr al Kalbi said:
There was a righteous woman who performed a lot of worship wasn’t in need of anyone, she only used to sleep for a small portion of the night. She was reprimanded for that and responded...; “Sufficient is death, and the long period of time laying in the grave as rest for a believer.”
[Sifat as Safwah by ibnul Jawzee]
