Amir al-mu'minin's lamentation for the Prophet's passing
2 Aḥadīth
Ḥadīth 358

٢٩٢. وَقَالَ (عليه السلام): عَلَى قَبْرِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ (صلى الله عليه وآله) سَاعَةَ دَفْنِهِ:

292. Amīr al-mu’minīn, peace be upon him, said on the grave of the Messenger of Allāh, peace be upon him and his descendants, at the time of burial:

Ḥadīth 359

إِنَّ الصَّبْرَ لَجَمِيلٌ إِلَّا عَنْكَ، وَإِنَّ الْجَزَعَ لَقَبِيحٌ إِلَّا عَلَيْكَ، وَإِنَّ الْمُصَابَ بِكَ لَجَلِيلٌ، وَإِنَّهُ قَبْلَكَ وَبَعْدَكَ لَجَلَلٌ.

Certainly, endurance is good except about you; fretting is bad except over you; and the affliction about you is great while every other affliction before or after it is small.
