361. hadíth

وَقَالَ اَلصَّادِقُ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: «فِي اَلْمَيِّتِ تَدْمَعُ عَيْنَاهُ عِنْدَ اَلْمَوْتِ وَ إِنَّ ذَلِكَ عِنْدَ مُعَايَنَةِ رَسُولِ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ فَيَرَى مَا يَسُرُّهُ» ثُمَّ قَالَ «أَ مَا تَرَى اَلرَّجُلَ يَرَى مَا يَسُرُّهُ وَ مَا يُحِبُّ فَتَدْمَعُ عَيْنَاهُ وَ يَضْحَكُ.

Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (a.s) said: "When a believer is at the moment of death, tears may come to their eyes because, at that moment, they witness the presence of the Messenger of Allah (saws) and they see what pleases them." Then Imam (a.s) said: "Do you not see that when a person sees what delights and pleases them, tears come to their eyes and they smile?"
