Musnad Abu Ya'la al-Mawsili 129:160

Zuhayr narrated to us, Abdullah bin Bakr narrated to us, Humayd narrated to us, from Anas. Abu Wahb said—and I do not know but that he mentioned it from the Prophet (may Allah bless him and grant him peace)—that he said: "Whoever loves to meet Allah, Allah loves to meet him, and whoever hates to meet Allah, Allah hates to meet him." They said, "O Messenger of Allah, all of us hate death." He said, "It is not that [which is] hatred of death. But when the bringer of glad tidings from Allah comes to him with what he is heading toward, he loves to meet Allah, and Allah loves to meet him. And the disbeliever or the wicked person, when he is present [at the time of death], there comes to him what he is meeting, so he hates to meet Allah, and Allah hates to meet him."
