Sahih al-Bukhari 6273 (Book 81, Hadith 101)
“O Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)! What is relieved and relieving?” He said, “A believer is relieved (by death) from
the troubles and hardships of the world and leaves for the Mercy of Allah, while (the death of) a
wicked person relieves the people, the land, the trees, (and) the animals from him.”
