سَمِعْتُ أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ ( عليه السلام ) يَقُولُ إِنَّ آيَةَ الْمُؤْمِنِ إِذَا حَضَرَهُ الْمَوْتُ يَبْيَاضُّ وَجْهُهُ أَشَدَّ مِنْ بَيَاضِ لَوْنِهِ وَ يَرْشَحُ جَبِينُهُ وَ يَسِيلُ مِنْ عَيْنَيْهِ كَهَيْئَةِ الدُّمُوعِ فَيَكُونُ ذَلِكَ خُرُوجَ نَفْسِهِ وَ إِنَّ الْكَافِرَ تَخْرُجُ نَفْسُهُ سَلًّا مِنْ شِدْقِهِ كَزَبَدِ الْبَعِيرِ أَوْ كَمَا تَخْرُجُ نَفْسُ الْبَعِيرِ .


Translation

A number of our companions, from Sahl Bin Ziyad, from Muhammad Bin Ali, from Muhammad Bin Al Fuzayl, from Abu Hamza who said, ‘I heard Abu Ja’far<sup>asws</sup> saying: ‘A sign of the Believer when the death presents itself (is that) his face whitens more intensely than the whitening of his colour, and his forehead sweats, and (water) flows from his eyes like tears, so that would happen during the exit of his soul; and the Infidel, his soul flows from the angle of his mouth like the foam of the camel, or just as the exiting of the soul of the camel’.
