Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated: "We entered with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) to visit Abu Sayf Al-Qayn, who was the blacksmith of Ibrahim (the Prophet’s son). The Prophet (ﷺ) took Ibrahim, kissed him, and smelled him. Later, we entered again, and Ibrahim was in his final moments. The eyes of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) filled with tears. Abdur Rahman ibn Awf said, 'Even you, O Messenger of Allah?' He replied, 'O Ibn Awf, this is mercy.' Then he added, 'The eyes shed tears, and the heart grieves, but we do not say except what pleases our Lord. Indeed, we are saddened by your separation, O Ibrahim.'"
