VISITING THE SICK H 591 "Kais went to visit Khubaib the son of Arat who was ill and found that he had been subjected to seven incisions of blood-letting. He said, 'Our Companions who passed on before lost nothing in regard of the world and we have found that the only place for it is in the earth. Had the Prophet, praise and peace be upon him, not forbidden us to supplicate for death, I would have supplicated for it.' Kais visited him again and found him repairing a wall. He said. 'There is a reward for a Muslim in respect of everything on which he spends money except when he commits it to clay.'" R 591 Bukhari and Muslim with a chain up to Kais, the son of Hazum who related this.
586- وعن قيسِ بن أَبي حازم ، قَالَ : دَخَلْنَا عَلَى خَبَّاب بن الأرَتِّ رضي الله عنه نَعُودُهُ وَقَدِ اكْتَوَى سَبْعَ كَيَّاتٍ ، فَقَالَ : إنَّ أَصْحَابَنَا الَّذِينَ سَلَفُوا مَضَوْا ، وَلَمْ تَنْقُصْهُمُ الدُّنْيَا ، وَإنَّا أصَبْنَا مَا لاَ نَجِدُ لَهُ مَوْضِعاً إِلاَّ التُّرَابَ وَلولا أنَّ النبي صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم نَهَانَا أنْ نَدْعُوَ بالمَوْتِ لَدَعَوْتُ بِهِ . ثُمَّ أتَيْنَاهُ مَرَّةً أُخْرَى وَهُوَ يَبْنِي حَائِطاً لَهُ ، فَقَالَ : إنَّ المُسْلِمَ لَيُؤْجَرُ فِي كُلِّ شَيْءٍ يُنْفِقُهُ إِلاَّ فِي شَيْءٍ يَجْعَلُهُ في هَذَا التُّرَابِ . متفقٌ عَلَيْهِ ، وهذا لفظ رواية البخاري .
