The angel of death was sent to Musa, peace be upon them both. When he came to him, Musa struck him, and the angel returned to his Lord and said, "You sent me to a servant who does not want to die."Allah said, "Go back to him and tell him to place his hand on the back of a bull. For every hair his hand covers, he will have a year of life."Musa asked, "My Lord, then what?"He said, "Then death."Musa said, "Then let it be now."He asked Allah to bring him within a stone's throw of the Holy Land.Abu Hurairah said, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "If I were there, I would show you his grave beside the road, beneath the red sand dune."
أرسل ملك الموت إلى موسى عليهما السلام، فلما جاءه صكه، فرجع إلى ربه فقال: أرسلتني إلى عبد لا يريد الموت قال: ارجع إليه فقل له يضع يده على متن ثور فله بما غطت يده بكل شعرة سنة قال: أي رب ثم ماذا؟ قال: ثم الموت قال: فالآن قال: فسأل الله أن يدنيه من الأرض المقدسة رمية بحجر. قال أبو هريرة فقال رسول الله ﷺ: لو كنت ثم لأريتكم قبره إلى جانب الطريق تحت الكثيب الأحمر.
Bukhari narrated it in the Hadiths of the Prophets (3407), and Muslim in the Virtues (2373:157), both of them through routes from Abdul-Razzaq, who said, Mamar informed us, from Ibn Tawus, from his father, from Abu Hurairah, who said, and then he mentioned it.
