حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ سَعِيدٍ الْجُرَيْرِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ النَّهْدِيِّ عَنْ حَنْظَلَةَ التَّمِيمِيِّ الْأُسَيْدِيِّ الْكَاتِبِ قَالَ
كُنَّا عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَذَكَرْنَا الْجَنَّةَ وَالنَّارَ حَتَّى كَأَنَّا رَأْيُ عَيْنٍ، فَأَتَيْتُ أَهْلِي وَوَلَدِي فَضَحِكْتُ وَلَعِبْتُ، وَذَكَرْتُ الَّذِي كُنَّا فِيهِ فَخَرَجْتُ، فَلَقِيتُ أَبَا بَكْرٍ فَقُلْتُ: نَافَقْتُ، نَافَقْتُ، فَقَالَ: إِنَّا لَنَفْعَلُهُ، فَأَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لَهُ، فَقَالَ: « يَا حَنْظَلَةُ، لَوْ كُنْتُمْ تَكُونُونَ كَمَا تَكُونُونَ عِنْدِي لَصَافَحَتْكُمُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ عَلَى فُرُشِكُمْ -أَوْ فِي طُرُقِكُمْ، أَوْ كَلِمَةً نَحْوَ هَذَا، هَكَذَا قَالَ: هُوَ، يَعْنِي سُفْيَانَ - يَا حَنْظَلَةُ سَاعَةً وَسَاعَةً

“We were with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and we spoke of Paradise and Hell until it was as if we could see them. Then I got up and went to my family and children, and I laughed and played (with them). Then I remembered how we had been, and I went out and met Abu Bakr, and said: ‘I have become a hypocrite!’ Abu Bakr said: ‘We all do that.’” So Hanzalah went and mentioned that to the Prophet ﷺ, who said: “O Hanzalah, if you were (always) as you are with me, the angels would shake hands with you in your beds and in your streets. O Hanzalah, there is a time for this and a time for that.” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 4239)
