Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) mentioned the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: When he arrived in Madinah, I was present. There was no day brighter or better than the day when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came to us. And I was also present on the day of his passing; I have not seen a day worse or darker than the day when he passed away.
