حَدَّثَنَا زَكَرِيَّا أَخْبَرَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللهِ وَحُسَيْنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللهِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَقِيلٍ عَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ
بَيْنَمَا نَحْنُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فِي صُفُوفِنَا فِي الصَّلَاةِ صَلَاةِ الظُّهْرِ أَوِ الْعَصْرِ، فَإِذَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَتَنَاوَلُ شَيْئًا، ثُمَّ تَأَخَّرَ فَتَأَخَّرَ النَّاسُ، فَلَمَّا قَضَى الصَّلَاةَ قَالَ لَهُ أُبَيُّ بْنُ كَعْبٍ: شَيْئًا صَنَعْتَهُ فِي الصَّلَاةِ لَمْ تَكُنْ تَصْنَعُهُ ! قَالَ: عُرِضَتْ عَلَيَّ الْجَنَّةُ بِمَا فِيهَا مِنَ الزَّهْرَةِ وَالنَّضْرَةِ فَتَنَاوَلْتُ مِنْهَا قِطْفًا مِنْ عِنَبٍ لِآتِيَكُمْ بِهِ، فَحِيلَ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَهُ، وَلَوْ أَتَيْتُكُمْ بِهِ لَأَكَلَ مِنْهُ مَنْ بَيْنَ السَّمَاءِ وَالْأَرْضِ لَا يُنْقِصُونَهُ شَيْئًا، ثُمَّ عُرِضَتْ عَلَيَّ النَّارُ، فَلَمَّا وَجَدْتُ سَفْعَهَا تَأَخَّرْتُ عَنْهَا، وَأَكْثَرُ مَنْ رَأَيْتُ فِيهَا النِّسَاءُ اللَّاتِي إِنِ اؤْتُمِنَّ أَفْشَيْنَ، وَإِنْ يُسْأَلْنَ بَخِلْنَ، وَإِنْ يَسْأَلْنَ أَلْحَفْنَ، قَالَ حُسَيْنٌ: وَإِنْ أُعْطِينَ لَمْ يَشْكُرْنَ، وَرَأَيْتُ فِيهَا لُحَيَّ بْنَ [عَمْرٍو] يَجُرُّ قُصْبَهُ فِي النَّارِ، وَأَشْبَهُ مَنْ رَأَيْتُ بِهِ مَعْبَدُ بْنُ أَكْثَمَ الْكَعْبِيُّ، قَالَ مَعْبَدٌ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، أَيُخْشَى عَلَيَّ مِنْ شَبَهِهِ وَهُوَ وَالِدٌ؟ فَقَالَ: لَا، أَنْتَ مُؤْمِنٌ وَهُوَ كَافِرٌ. قَالَ حُسَيْنٌ: وَكَانَ أَوَّلَ مَنْ حَمَلَ الْعَرَبَ عَلَى عِبَادَةِ الْأَوْثَانِ، قَالَ حُسَيْنٌ: تَأَخَّرْتُ عَنْهَا وَلَوْلَا ذَلِكَ لَغَشِيَتْكُمْ

✧ While we were with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in our rows during prayer, the noon prayer or the afternoon prayer, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ reached for something, then stepped back, and the people stepped back. When he finished the prayer, Ubayy b. Ka'b said to him: You did something in prayer that you did not do before! He said: Paradise was shown to me with all its flowers and freshness, and I reached for a bunch of grapes from it to bring to you, but I was prevented from it. Had I brought it to you, all between heaven and earth would have eaten from it without diminishing it at all. Then Hell was shown to me. When I felt its scorching heat, I stepped back from it. Most of those I saw in it were women who, if entrusted, betray; if asked, are stingy; and if they ask, are importunate. Husayn said: And if they are given, they are ungrateful. I saw in it Luhayy b. 'Amr dragging his intestines in the Fire. The one most resembling him that I saw was Ma'bad b. Aktham al-Ka'bi. Ma'bad said: O Messenger of Allah, should I fear on account of his resemblance, though he is a father? He said: No, you are a believer and he is an unbeliever. Husayn said: He was the first to lead the Arabs to worship idols. Husayn said: I stepped back from it, and had it not been for that, it would have overwhelmed you.
