267 – Muḥammad ibn Ṣāliḥ narrated to me: A man, as he stood by the grave of a friend, recited these lines by Marwān ibn Abī Ḥafṣa:
“Though he is one of us, and his grave lies close at hand,
He is distant; whoever is overtaken by death is carried far away.”
٢٦٧- حدثني محمد بن صالح إن رجلا تمثل مروا ن بن أبي حفصة على قبر صديق له والشعر له
على إنه منا على قرب قبره ... بعيد ومن ينزل به الموت يبعد
