عن أَبي عِنَبَةَ قَالَ:
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ �3;ِذَا أَرَادَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ بِعَبْدٍ خَيْرًا عَسَلَهُ قِيلَ وَمَا عَسَلُهُ قَالَ يَفْتَحُ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ لَهُ عَمَلًا صَالِحًا قَبْلَ مَوْتِهِ ثُمَّ يَقْبِضُهُ عَلَيْهِ
أخرجه أحمد وصححه الألباني

“When Allah wants good for His slave, He makes him pleasant.” It was asked, “And what makes him pleasant?” He صلى الله عليه و سلم said, “He opens the door of righteous deeds for him before his death, then He takes his soul in that state.”
