Sahih Muslim 2127 — Book 11, Hadith 5

وَحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ، عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي عُمَرُ بْنُ كَثِيرِ بْنِ أَفْلَحَ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ ابْنَ سَفِينَةَ، يُحَدِّثُ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أُمَّ سَلَمَةَ، زَوْجَ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم تَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُ ‏ "‏ مَا مِنْ عَبْدٍ تُصِيبُهُ مُصِيبَةٌ فَيَقُولُ إِنَّا لِلَّهِ وَإِنَّا إِلَيْهِ رَاجِعُونَ اللَّهُمَّ أْجُرْنِي فِي مُصِيبَتِي وَأَخْلِفْ لِي خَيْرًا مِنْهَا إِلاَّ أَجَرَهُ اللَّهُ فِي مُصِيبَتِهِ وَأَخْلَفَ لَهُ خَيْرًا مِنْهَا ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَتْ فَلَمَّا تُوُفِّيَ أَبُو سَلَمَةَ قُلْتُ كَمَا أَمَرَنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَأَخْلَفَ اللَّهُ لِي خَيْرًا مِنْهُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏.‏

Translation

Rapporté par Umm Salama, l’épouse du Messager d’Allah ﷺ : Le Messager d’Allah ﷺ a dit : « Si un serviteur (d’Allah) subit une épreuve et dit : “Nous appartenons à Allah et c’est vers Lui que nous retournerons. Ô Allah, récompense-moi pour mon malheur et accorde-moi quelque chose de meilleur en échange”, Allah lui donnera une récompense pour cette épreuve et lui donnera quelque chose de meilleur en échange. » Elle (Umm Salama) a dit : Quand Abu Salama est décédé, j’ai prononcé ces paroles comme le Messager d’Allah ﷺ me l’avait ordonné. Alors Allah m’a donné mieux que lui, c’est-à-dire que j’ai épousé le Messager d’Allah ﷺ
