Full Sharh — Al-Adab Al-Mufrad 535
حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ زَيْدٍ، عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ، أَنَّ رَجُلاً مِنْ أَصْحَابِ مُحَمَّدٍ ذَهَبَ بَصَرُهُ، فَعَادُوهُ، فَقَالَ: كُنْتُ أُرِيدُهُمَا لَأَنْظُرَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم، فَأَمَّا إِذْ قُبِضَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَوَاللَّهِ مَا يَسُرُّنِي أَنَّ مَا بِهِمَا بِظَبْيٍ مِنْ ظِبَاءِ تَبَالَةَ.
English Translation
Al-Qasim ibn Muhammad reported that one of the Companions of Muhammad lost his eyesight and people visited him. He said, "I used to look at the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, but now that the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, has died, by Allah, what has happened to my eyes is as easy for me to bear as one of the gazelles of Tibala (in Yemen)."
