I just had a question regarding a hadith, if it is authentic or not. I found this hadith in Tafsir Ibn Kathir rahimullah. The hadith is found in Musnad Imam Ahmad  recorded that `Abdullah bin `Amr, may Allah be pleased with him, said, "A man died in Al-Madinah and the Prophet sallahu alahi wa salaam prayed over him, and said, ıııı ıııııııı ııııı ııı ıııııı ııııııııı (Would that he had died somewhere other than in his place of birth!) A man among the people said, `Why, O Messenger of Allah' The Messenger of Allah sallahu alahi wa salaam said: ıııııı ııııııııı ııııı ııııııııı ııı ıııııı ıııııııııı ııııı ıııı ıııı ıııııııııı ııııı ıııııııııı ıııııııı ııı ıııııııı{ (When a man dies somewhere other than in his place of birth, it will be measured for him from where he was born to where his footsteps no longer appear, (and this is the space that will be allocated for him) in Paradise.)
