Aboo Moosaa Al-Ash’aree’s Worship Prior To His Death

[TheAuthenticBase]

Aboo Moosaa Al-Ash’aree (ra) was extremely strict in worship before his death so it was said to him:

“If you any refrained from this were a little or were a little gentle with yourself.”
​

So he replied:

“When a horse is sent off to run and it is close to the end of the track, it pushes out all that it has and the time that is left from my life is less than that.”
​

The reporter said:

“So he didn’t cease to be upon that state until he died.”
