Salaam,

I'm an English speaker who has been looking into quotes from the Ahlul-Bayt about death. I can only find English versions, and would like to find the Arabic (don't trust google translate for this).

- "Stiffen your breast for death. Indeed death will meet you. Do not show grief at death when it arrives in your valley"

- "Death for the virtuous is a reward for them, death for the vicious is a relief for the people"

-"Every breath of man brings him closer to death"

-"Let go of your pride, put down your arrogance, and remember your grave"

-"Every man is on a ladder, the steps are different for everyone except the last step, death"

Thank you for your help!

-"Every breath of man brings him closer to death"

 

امام علی (علیه السلام) فرمودند:
 
نَفَسُ المَرءِ خُطاهُ اِلی اَجَلِهِ؛
 

غررالحکم، ج6، ص 170

امام سجادعليه السّلام مى فرمايد:المَوتُ للمؤ من كنَزعِ ثيابٍ وَسِخَة قُمّلَةٍ و فَكّ قُيودٍ و اغلال ثَقيلة والاستبدال باَفخَر الثياب و اطيبها

معانی الأخبار: 289 / 4 منتخب میزان الحکمة: 518

Imam Sajjad (as)

Death for believers is like removing dirty clothes, and then wearing the finest and most costly clothes and getting rid of heavy clauses.  the same death is for the disbelievers, such as sweeping the clothes and wearing dirty clothes, leaving the homes of the dwellers and moving to the terrible houses.

امام صادق عليه السّلام مى فرمايد: الموتُ للمؤ من كاَطيَب رِيحٍ يَشُمّه ... وللكافر كلَدغ الاَفاعى و كلَسعِ العَقارب
129-محجّة البيضاء، ج 8، ص 255.
130-محجّة البيضاء، ج 8، ص 255.
ImamSadiq (as):To die for believers is to smell the best of smells, and to the disbelievers it is like the scapegoat and the scapegoat.
 
 "Death for the virtuous is a reward for them, death for the vicious is a relief for the people"

Nahj Al-Fasahah, Height Of Rhetoric

Translation Of Wise Of The Holy Prophet Muhammad Arabic-English

The Height of Rhetoric or the noble book entitled “Nahj Al-Fasahah” is an unparalleled treasure of the eloquent wise sayings of the Holy Prophet of Islam (P.B.U.H.). It was first collected by the late Abulghasim Payande and published in 1957 A.D. as an Arabic-Persian edition, containing traditions. It has been widely in use by both the public and the elite since then for deriving guidance from the Holy Prophet’s ocean of lore to pave the rocky paths of man’s life.

Salaam,

I'm an English speaker who has been looking into quotes from the Ahlul-Bayt about death. I can only find English versions, and would like to find the Arabic (don't trust google translate for this).

few quotes are given below about death with arabic and english:

The Appointed Time of Death الأجل

1. The appointed time of death is [already] determined and sustenance is [already] apportioned, so let not any of you grieve its reduction; for verily greed does not expedite it and self-restraint does not delay it, and it behoves a believer to be patient.

1ـ اَلأجلُ مَحْتُومٌ، والرِّزْقُ مَقْسُومٌ، فلا يَغُمَّنَّ أحَدَكُمْ إبطاؤُهُ، فإنَّ الحِرْصَ لايُقَدِّمُهُ، والعَفافُ لا يُؤَخِّرُهُ، والمُؤمِنُ بالتَّحَمُّلِ(بِالتَّجَمُّلِ (خَليقٌ.

2. The truest thing is death.

2ـ أصْدَقُ شَيْ ء اَلأجَلُ.

3. The nearest thing is death.

3ـ أقْرَبُ شَيْ ء الأجَلُ.

4. The reality of death exposes the lie of [false] aspiration.

4ـ صِدقُ الأجلِ يُفْصِحُ (يَفْضَحُ) كِذْبَ الأمَلِ.

5. At every moment there is death.

5ـ في كُلِّ لَحْظَة أجَلٌ.

6. The remembrance of [the times of] death has disappeared from your hearts and has been replaced by false hopes and aspirations.

6ـ قَدْ غابَ عَنْ قُلُوبِكُمْ ذِكرُ الآجالِ، وَحَضَرَتْكُمْ كَواذِبُ الآمالِ.

7. Your hearts have forgotten the reality of death and you have been overcome by deception of [false] hope.

7ـ قَدْ ذَهبَ عَنْ قُلُوبِكُمْ صِدْقُ الأجَلِ، وغَلَبَكُم غُرُورُ الأملِ.

8. The one who takes death into consideration values his time.

8ـ مَنْ راقَبَ أجَلَهُ إغْتَنَمَ مَهَلَهُ.
