Hadith #539
Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ أَخْبَرَنَا حَمَّادٌ أَخْبَرَنَا ثَابِتٌ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى عَنْ صُهَيْبٍ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ تَلَا هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ { لِلَّذِينَ أَحْسَنُوا الْحُسْنَى وَزِيَادَةٌ } قَالَ إِذَا دَخَلَ أَهْلُ الْجَنَّةِ الْجَنَّةَ وَأَهْلُ النَّارِ النَّارَ نَادَى مُنَادٍ يَا أَهْلَ الْجَنَّةِ إِنَّ
لَكُمْ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ مَوْعِدًا يُرِيدُ أَنْ يُنْجِزَكُمُوهُ فَيَقُولُونَ وَمَا هُوَ أَلَمْ يُثَقِّلْ مَوَازِينَنَا وَيُبَيِّضْ وُجُوهَنَا وَيُدْخِلْنَا الْجَنَّةَ وَيُجِرْنَا مِنْ النَّارِ قَالَ فَيُكْشَفُ لَهُمْ الْحِجَابُ فَيَنْظُرُونَ إِلَيْهِ قَالَ فَوَاللَّهِ مَا أَعْطَاهُمْ شَيْئًا أَحَبَّ إِلَيْهِمْ مِنْ النَّظَرِ إِلَيْهِ وَلَا أَقَرَّ بِأَعْيُنِهِمْ

English Translation
ʿAffān narrated to us, Ḥammād informed us, Thābit informed us, from ʿAbd al-Raḥmān ibn Abī Laylā, from Ṣuhayb, that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ recited this verse: {For those who have done good is the best reward and more} [10:26]. He 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, nor anything more pleasing to their eyes."
