Mishkat al-Masabih — Hadith #52271

On the authority of Aisha, she said: One of God’s blessings upon me is that the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, died in my house and on my day and between my dawn and my sacrifice. God united my saliva with his saliva. When he died, Abd al-Rahman bin Abi Bakr came to me with a siwak in his hand, and I was supported. The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, and I saw him looking at him and I knew that he loved the siwak, so I said: Shall I take it for you? So he indicated with his head, “Yes,” so I took it and it became hard for him and I said: “Should I make it soft for you?” So he indicated with his head that yes, it was soft, so he commanded him and there was a corner in his hands. There is water in it, so he put his hands into the water and wiped his face with them and said: “There is no god but God. Indeed, death has intoxicants.” Then he raised his hand and started saying: “In the Most High Companion.” Until he was arrested and his hand turned away. Narrated by Al-Bukhari
