Theme 3: The Duration of His Stay on Earth and His Passing

And his grave shall be the fourth, and the Hadith of Ibn Umar has already been cited as recorded by Ibn al-Jawzi in 'al-Muntazam'.

The Allamah stated in 'al-Bahjah': 'Some of our shaykhs remarked: Mentioning the fourth of the graves does not contradict his statement: "with me in my grave," for he expressed it in that manner due to extreme proximity; because of his closeness, it is as though he were with him, or by assuming an implied construct, meaning: "beside my grave," so that the statements harmonize and accord. Thus, the entirety of what we have mentioned proves that he (peace be upon him) shall pass away in al-Madinah al-Munawwarah. Some of them observed: Perhaps his death will occur at the time of his Hajj pilgrimage and his visitation of the Prophet (ﷺ). And Allah knows best.'
