English Translation

Ali ibn Ishaq narrated to us, he said Abdullah narrated to us, he said Ubaydullah ibn Umar informed us, from Sa'id al-Maqburi, from Abu Hurayrah (رضي الله عنه), from the Prophet ﷺ who said: 'Paradise and the Hellfire debated. The Hellfire said: "I have been favored with the arrogant and the tyrants." Paradise said: "Why do only the weak and lowly enter me?" Allah (تبارك وتعالى) said to Paradise: "You are My mercy; through you I show mercy to whomever I will." And He said to the Hellfire: "You are My punishment; through you I punish whomever I will." And each of you will have its fill.'
