Malik Muwatta
وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ، عَنِ الأَعْرَجِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏:‏ ‏‏ لاَ تَقُومُ السَّاعَةُ حَتَّى يَمُرَّ الرَّجُلُ بِقَبْرِ الرَّجُلِ فَيَقُولُ يَا لَيْتَنِي مَكَانَهُ ‏"‏ ‏‏
Yahya related to me from Malik from Abu 'z Zinad from al-Araj from Abu Hurayra that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, "The Hour will not come until a man passes by the grave of another and says, 'If only I were in his place.' "
