Hadith 33:640

Waki' narrated to us, from Mis'ar, from Ibrahim, from Muhammad ibn al-Muntashir, from Masruq, who said: "There is nothing better for the believer than a *lahd* (a niche in the side of a grave), for he has found rest from the worries of the world and has become secure from the punishment of Allah."

حدثنا وكيع عن مسعر عن إبراهيم عن محمد بن المنتشر عن مسروق قال ما من شيء خير للمؤمن من لحد قد استراح من هموم الدنيا وأمن من عذاب الله
