Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ ثَابِتٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى عَنْ صُهَيْبٍ عَنْ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ إِذَا دَخَلَ أَهْلُ الْجَنَّةِ الْجَنَّةَ وَأَهْلُ النَّارِ النَّارَ نُودُوا يَا أَهْلَ الْجَنَّةِ إِنَّ لَكُمْ عِ
نْدَ اللَّهِ مَوْعِدًا فَقَالُوا أَلَمْ يُثَقِّلْ مَوَازِينَنَا وَيُعْطِينَا كُتُبَنَا بِأَيْمَانِنَا وَيُدْخِلْنَا الْجَنَّةَ وَيُنْجِينَا مِنْ النَّارِ فَيُكْشَفُ الْحِجَابُ قَالَ فَيَتَجَلَّى اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ لَهُمْ قَالَ فَمَا أَعْطَاهُمْ اللَّهُ شَيْئًا أَحَبَّ إِلَيْهِمْ مِنْ النَّظَرِ إِلَيْهِ

English Translation
ʿAbd al-Raḥmān ibn Mahdī narrated to us, Ḥammād ibn Salamah narrated to us, from Thābit, from ʿAbd al-Raḥmān ibn Abī Laylā, from Ṣuhayb, from the Prophet ﷺ, who said: "When the people of Paradise enter Paradise and the people of the Fire enter the Fire, a caller will announce: 'O people of Paradise! You have a promise with Allah that He wishes to fulfill for you.' They will say: 'What is it? Has He not made our scales heavy, brightened our faces, admitted us to Paradise, and saved us from the Fire?' Then the veil will be lifted and they will gaze upon Him. By Allah, He never gave them anything more beloved to them than gazing upon Him."
