Musnad Ahmad 10919

Translation

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ heard a man reciting 'Qul huwa Allahu ahad' until he finished it, and he said: 'It is affirmed.' It was said: 'O Messenger of Allah, what is affirmed?' He said: 'Paradise.' Abu Hurayrah said: 'I wanted to go to him and give him the good news, but I preferred to have lunch with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and I feared I would miss the lunch with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. Then I returned to the man, but I found that he had gone.'
