Amr said: Abd al-Karim narrated to me from Yazid bin Abi Habib, from Abu al-Khayr, from Sayyiduna Uqbah bin Amir (may Allah be pleased with him): The first to learn of a servant's death is the guardian angel, because he ascends with his deeds and descends with his provision; so when the provision stops coming, he knows that he has died.

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: "Do not despair of the mercy of Allah" [Surah al-Zumar: 53] .
