Hadith 33:1114
Abu Usama narrated to us, he said: Nafi‘ ibn ‘Umar narrated to me, from Bishr ibn ‘Asim, he said: Tawus said: I have not seen anyone who felt secure regarding himself. I once saw a man, and if it were said to me, "Who is the best person you know?" I would have said, "Such-and-such," referring to that man. He remained in that state, then a pain seized his stomach, and something afflicted him from it. His stomach became distended upon him, and he desired it [the food/drink]. I saw him in pieces—I do not know which of his two sides was faster [to decay/break]—until he died sweating.
حدثنا أبو أسامة قال حدثني نافع بن عمر عن بشر بن عاصم قال قال طاوس ما رأيت مثل أحد أمن على نفسه قد رأيت رجلا لو قيل لي من أفضل من تعرف قلت فلان لذلك الرجل فمكث على ذلك ثم أخذه وجع في بطنه فأصابه منه شيء فاستنضح بطنه عليه واشتهاه فرأيته في قطع ما أدري أي طرفيه أسرع حتى مات عرقا
