Aur Rasul Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ne irshad farmaya: ”Musa Alaihis Salam ke paas maut ka farishta aaya aur kehne laga: apne Rabb ka hukm baja laiye (yaani jaan jaan-e-aafreen ke supard kijiye). Is par Musa Alaihis Salam ne farishte ki aankh par thappar raseed kiya aur is ki aankh phod daali. Wo farishta Allah ki bargaah mein lauta aur arz kiya: bilashuba Tu ne mujhe apne aise bande ki taraf bheja hai jo marna nahi chahta aur bil-tahqeeq us ne meri aankh phod daali hai. To Allah ne is ki aankh lauta di aur farmaya: Mere bande ke paas ja aur is se kaho: Aap zinda rehna hi pasand karein ge? Agar (waqayi) zinda rehna chahte hain to bail ki pusht par apna haath rakkho, bas Aap ka haath jitne baal dhaanke ga, har baal ke iwaz Aap ek saal zinda raho ge. Musa Alaihis Salam ne kaha: phir kya ho ga? Farishte ne kaha: phir Aap maut se ham-kinar ho ge. Musa Alaihis Salam ne kaha: phir accha hai ke abhi mar jaoon. Phir dua ki: Ae mere Rabb! mujhe patthar phenkne ki miqdar jitna arz-e-muqaddas ke qareeb kar de.“ (Syedna Abu Hurairah Radi Allahu Anhu kehte hain ke) Rasul Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ne farmaya: ”Agar mein wahan maujood hota to yaqeenan Aap logon ko Musa Alaihis Salam ki qabr dikhata, jo rasta ke kinare ek surkh teele ke qareeb hai.“
