Imam Abu Bakr Muhammad bin Ishaq bin Khuzaymah (may Allah have mercy on him) said: I asked Yunus bin Abd al-A'la al-Sadafi about the cause of the death of Abdullah bin Wahb, and he said: "Kitab al-Ahwal" (the account of the terrors of the Day of Resurrection) was being read to him, and when a certain report was read, he fell down in a faint (out of fear of Allah). We carried him and took him into his house, and he remained ill continuously until he passed away.
