Abu Saeed Khudri reported,

The Prophet ﷺ said, "There was a man before your time whom Allah had blessed with abundant wealth. When death approached him, he said to his sons, 'What kind of father have I been to you?'They replied, 'The best of fathers.'He said, 'I have never done a single good deed, so when I die, burn me, then grind me to dust, then scatter me on a windy day.'They did so, but Allah عز وجل gathered him together and asked him, 'What drove you to do this?'He replied, 'Fear of You.'So Allah received him with His mercy."

عن أبي سعيد الخدري

عن النبي ﷺ: أن رجلا كان قبلكم رغسه الله مالا، فقال لبنيه لما حضر: أي أب كنت لكم؟ قالوا: خير أب. قال: فإني لم أعمل خيرا قط، فإذا مت أحرقوني، ثم اسحقوني، ثم ذروني في يوم عاصف، ففعلوا، فجمعه الله عز وجل فقال: ما حملك؟ قال: مخافتك، فتلقاه برحمته.
