حدثنا سفيان ، قال: حدثنا عمرو بن دينار ، عن ابن شهاب ، عن ابن كعب بن مالك ، عن ابيه ، انه لما حضرته الوفاة، قالت له ام مبشر: اقرا على مبشر السلام، فقال لها كعب: يا ام مبشر، اهكذا قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم؟ فقالت: لا ادري ضعفت فاستغفر الله، فقال كعب: قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم:" ان نسمة المؤمن طائر خضر تعلق من ثمر الجنة" .
The son of Sayyiduna Ka'b bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates about his father that when the time of his death approached, Sayyida Umm Mubashir (may Allah be pleased with her) said to him: "Convey my greetings to Mubashir." So Sayyiduna Ka'b (may Allah be pleased with him) said to her: "O Umm Mubashir! Did the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say this?" The woman replied: "I do not know, I have grown old, I seek forgiveness from Allah Almighty." Then Sayyiduna Ka'b (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said this: 'The soul of the believer is in the form of a green bird, which eats from the fruits of Paradise.'"
