Musnad Ahmad 12469

Translation

✧ I am the first person from whom the earth will split open about my skull on the Day of Resurrection, and there is no boast. I will be given the banner of praise, and there is no boast. I am the master of people on the Day of Resurrection, and there is no boast. I am the first to enter Paradise on the Day of Resurrection, and there is no boast. I will come to the gate of Paradise and take hold of its ring. They will say, 'Who is this?' I will say, 'I am Muhammad.' They will open for me and I will enter. Then the Compeller (mighty and glorious is He) will be facing me, and I will prostrate to Him. He will say, 'Raise your head, O Muhammad, and speak; you will be heard. Ask, and you will be given. Intercede, and your intercession will be accepted.' So I will raise my head and say, 'My community, my community, O Lord.' He will say, 'Go to your community. Whoever you find in his heart the weight of a barley grain of faith, admit him to Paradise.' So I will go forward, and whoever I find in his heart that, I will admit him to Paradise. Then the Compeller (mighty and glorious is He) will be facing me, and I will prostrate to Him. He will say, 'Raise your head, O Muhammad, and speak; you will be heard. Ask, and you will be given. Intercede, and your intercession will be accepted.' So I will raise my head and say, 'My community, my community, O Lord.' He will say, 'Go to your community. Whoever you find in his heart half a barley grain of faith, admit them to Paradise.' So I will go, and whoever I find in his heart the weight of that, I will admit them to Paradise. Then the Compeller (mighty and glorious is He) will be facing me, and I will prostrate to Him. He will say, 'Raise your head, O Muhammad, and speak; you will be heard. Ask, and you will be given. Intercede, and your intercession will be accepted.' So I will raise my head and say, 'My community, my community.' He will say, 'Go to your community. Whoever you find in his heart the weight of a mustard seed of faith, admit him to Paradise.' So I will go, and whoever I find in his heart the weight of that, I will admit them to Paradise. Then Allah will finish the reckoning of the people and cast those remaining from my community into the Fire with the people of the Fire. The people of the Fire will say, 'What did it avail you that you used to worship Allah (mighty and glorious is He) without associating anything with Him?' The Compeller (mighty and glorious is He) will say, 'By My might, I will surely free them from the Fire.' He will send for them, and they will come out, having been scorched. They will enter the River of Life and grow in it as a seed grows in the scum of a torrent. It will be written between their eyes, 'These are the freed ones of Allah (mighty and glorious is He).' They will be taken and will enter Paradise. The people of Paradise will say, 'These are the hellfire ones.' The Compeller will say, 'Rather, these are the freed ones of the Compeller (mighty and glorious is He).'
