   وَجَدْتُ أَبَا جَهْلٍ، لَعَنَهُ اللهُ، فِي قَتْلَى بَدْرٍ وَبِهِ رَمَقٌ فَحَزَزْتُ رَأْسَهُ، فَجِئْتُ بِهِ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقُلْتُ: هَذَا وَالَّذِي لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا هُوَ رَأْسُ أَبِي جَهْلٍ، فَقَالَ: هَذَا وَالَّذِي لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا هُوَ رَأْسُ أَبِي جَهْلٍ ؟ " قَالَ: وَكَانَتْ يَمِينُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ، قُلْتُ: نَعَمْ، فَوَضَعْتُهُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ فَحَمِدَ اللهَ

   ✧ I found Abu Jahl, may God curse him, among the slain of Badr while he still had a spark of life. So I cut off his head and brought it to the Messenger of God ﷺ and said: 'This, by the One besides whom there is no deity, is the head of Abu Jahl.' He said: 'This, by the One besides whom there is no deity, is the head of Abu Jahl?' He said: 'And that was the oath of the Messenger of God ﷺ.' I said: 'Yes.' So I placed it before him, and he praised God.

   عُرِضَتْ عَلَيَّ الْأَنْبِيَاءُ اللَّيْلَةَ بِأَتْبَاعِهَا مِنْ أُمَمِهَا، فَجَعَلَ النَّبِيُّ يَمُرُّ وَمَعَهُ الثَّلَاثَةُ مِنْ قَوْمِهِ، وَالنَّبِيُّ مَعَهُ الْعِصَابَةُ مِنْ قَوْمِهِ، وَالنَّبِيُّ مَعَهُ النَّفَرُ مِنْ قَوْمِهِ، وَالنَّبِيُّ لَيْسَ مَعَهُ مِنْ قَوْمِهِ أَحَدٌ، حَتَّى أَتَى عَلَيَّ مُوسَى بْنُ عِمْرَانَ فِي كَوْكَبَةٍ مِنْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، فَلَمَّا رَأَيْتُهُمْ أَعْجَبُونِي، فَقُلْتُ: رَبِّ مَنْ هَؤُلَاءِ ؟ قَالَ: هَذَا أَخُوكَ مُوسَى بْنُ عِمْرَانَ وَمَنْ تَبِعَهُ مِنْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، قُلْتُ: رَبِّ فَأَيْنَ أُمَّتِي ؟ قِيلَ: انْظُرْ عَنْ يَمِينِكَ، فَإِذَا الظِّرَابُ ظِرَابُ مَكَّةَ، قَدْ سُدَّ بِوُجُوهِ الرِّجَالِ، فَقُلْتُ: رَبِّ مَنْ هَؤُلَاءِ ؟ قِيلَ لِي: أُمَّتُكَ، فَقِيلَ لِي: هَلْ رَضِيتَ ؟ فَقُلْتُ: رَبِّ رَضِيتُ، رَبِّ رَضِيتُ، فَقِيلَ: انْظُرْ عَنْ يَسَارِكَ، فَإِذَا الْأُفُقُ قَدْ سُدَّ بِوُجُوهِ الرِّجَالِ، قُلْتُ: رَبِّ مَنْ هَؤُلَاءِ ؟ قِيلَ: أُمَّتُكَ قَالَ: فَقِيلَ لِي: هَلْ رَضِيتَ ؟ قَالَ: قُلْتُ: رَبِّ رَضِيتُ، رَبِّ رَضِيتُ، ثُمَّ قِيلَ لِي: إِنَّ مَعَ هَؤُلَاءِ سَبْعِينَ أَلْفًا يَدْخُلُونَ الْجَنَّةَ بِغَيْرِ حِسَابٍ، فَأَنْشَى عُكَّاشَةُ بْنُ مِحْصَنٍ، رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَنِي أَسَدِ بْنِ خُزَيْمَةَ، فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ادْعُ اللهَ أَنْ يَجْعَلَنِيَ مِنْهُمْ قَالَ: اللَّهُمَّ اجْعَلْهُ مِنْهُمْ، ثُمَّ أَنْشَى رَجُلٌ آخَرُ، فَقَالَ: يَا نَبِيَّ اللهِ ادْعُ اللهَ أَنْ يَجْعَلَنِيَ مِنْهُمْ، فَقَالَ: سَبَقَكَ بِهَا عُكَّاشَةُ، ثُمَّ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: فِدًا لَكُمْ أَبِي وَأُمِّي إِنِ اسْتَطَعْتُمْ أَنْ تَكُونُوا مِنَ السَّبْعِينَ فَكُونُوا، فَإِنْ عَجَزْتُمْ أَوْ قَصَّرْتُمْ فَكُونُوا مِنْ أَهْلِ الظِّرَابِ، فَإِنْ عَجَزْتُمْ وَقَصَّرْتُمْ فَكُونُوا مِنْ أَهْلِ الْأُفُقِ، فَإِنِّي رَأَيْتُ ثَمَّ نَاسًا يَتَهَوَّشُونَ كَثِيرًا، ثُمَّ قَالَ نَبِيُّ اللهِ ﷺ: إِنِّي لَأَرْجُو أَنْ يَكُونَ مَنْ تَبِعَنِي مِنْ أُمَّتِي رُبُعَ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ قَالَ: فَكَبَّرْنَا، ثُمَّ قَالَ: إِنِّي لَأَرْجُو أَنْ يَكُونُوا الثُّلُثَ قَالَ: فَكَبَّرْنَا، ثُمَّ قَالَ: إِنِّي لَأَرْجُو أَنْ تَكُونُوا الشَّطْرَ فَكَبَّرْنَا، فَتَلَا النَّبِيُّ، ﷺ: ثُلَّةٌ مِنَ الأَوَّلِينَ وَثُلَّةٌ مِنَ الآخِرِينَ، فَتَرَاجَعَ الْمُسْلِمُونَ: مَنْ هَؤُلَاءِ ؟ لَا نَرَاهُمْ إِلَّا الَّذِينَ وُلِدُوا فِي الْإِسْلَامِ، وَلَمْ يَزَالُوا يَعْمَلُونَ بِهِ حَتَّى مَاتُوا عَلَيْهِ قَالَ: فَنَمَى حَدِيثُهُمْ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ: لَيْسَ كَذَا وَلَكِنَّهُمُ الَّذِينَ لَا يَسْتَرْقُونَ وَلَا يَكْتَوُونَ وَلَا يَتَطَيَّرُونَ وَعَلَى رَبِّهِمْ يَتَوَكَّلُونَ. وَهَذَا الْحَدِيثُ لَا نَعْلَمُهُ يُرْوَى عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ إِلَّا مِنْ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ.

   ✧ The prophets were presented to me tonight with their followers from their nations. A prophet would pass by with three men from his people, a prophet with a band from his people, a prophet with a small group from his people, and a prophet with no one from his people, until Musa b. 'Imran came to me in a throng of the Children of Israel. When I saw them, they amazed me, so I said: 'My Lord, who are these?' He said: 'This is your brother Musa b. 'Imran and those who followed him from the Children of Israel.' I said: 'My Lord, where is my Ummah?' It was said: 'Look to your right.' And there were the hillocks, the hillocks of Makkah, filled with the faces of men. I said: 'My Lord, who are these?' It was said to me: 'Your Ummah.' Then it was said to me: 'Are you pleased?' I said: 'My Lord, I am pleased; my Lord, I am pleased.' Then it was said: 'Look to your left.' And there was the horizon filled with the faces of men. I said: 'My Lord, who are these?' It was said: 'Your Ummah.' Then it was said to me: 'Are you pleased?' I said: 'My Lord, I am pleased; my Lord, I am pleased.' Then it was said to me: 'With these, there are seventy thousand who will enter Paradise without reckoning.' So 'Ukkashah b. Mihsan, a man from Banu Asad b. Khuzaymah, stood up and said: 'O Messenger of Allah, supplicate Allah to make me one of them.' He said: 'O Allah, make him one of them.' Then another man stood up and said: 'O Prophet of Allah, supplicate Allah to make me one of them.' He said: ''Ukkashah beat you to it.' Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'May my father and mother be your ransom! If you are able to be among the seventy, then be so. If you are unable or fall short, then be among the people of the hillocks. If you are unable and fall short, then be among the people of the horizon, for I saw many people gathered there.' Then the Prophet of Allah ﷺ said: 'I hope that those who follow me from my Ummah will be a quarter of the people of Paradise.' He said: So we said 'Allahu Akbar.' Then he said: 'I hope that they will be a third.' He said: So we said 'Allahu Akbar.' Then he said: 'I hope that you will be half.' So we said 'Allahu Akbar.' Then the Prophet ﷺ recited: 'A multitude from the former generations and a multitude from the later generations.' The Muslims discussed among themselves: 'Who are these? We see them as none other than those who were born in Islam and continued to act upon it until they died upon it.' He said: Their talk reached the Prophet ﷺ, and he said: 'It is not so; rather, they are those who do not perform ruqyah, nor cauterize, nor believe in omens, and upon their Lord they rely.' And we do not know of this hadith being narrated from 'Abdullah, from the Prophet ﷺ, except through this route with this chain.

   إِنَّ آخِرَ مَنْ يَدْخُلُ الْجَنَّةَ رَجُلٌ يَمْشِي مَرَّةً وَيَكْبُو مَرَّةً، وَيَسْقُطُ فِي النَّارِ مَرَّةً، فَإِذَا جَاوَزَهَا الْتَفَتَ إِلَيْهَا، فَقَالَ: تَبَارَكَ الَّذِي نَجَّانِي مِنْكِ، لَقَدْ أَعْطَانِي اللهُ شَيْئًا مَا أَعْطَاهُ أَحَدًا مِنَ الْأَوَّلِينَ وَالْآخِرِينَ، قَالَ: فَيَرْفَعُ اللهُ لَهُ شَجَرَةً أَوْ تُرْفَعُ لَهُ شَجَرَةٌ، فَيَقُولُ: أَيْ رَبِّ أَدْنِنِي مِنْ هَذِهِ الشَّجَرَةِ، فَأَسْتَظِلَّ بِظِلِّهَا، وَأَشْرَبَ مِنْ مَائِهَا، فَيَقُولُ: يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ، لَعَلِّي إِنْ أَعْطَيْتُكَهَا تَسْأَلُنِي غَيْرَهَا قَالَ: فَيَقُولُ: لَا يَا رَبِّ قَالَ: فَيَقُولُ: وَيُعَاهِدُهُ أَنْ لَا يَسْأَلَهُ غَيْرَهَا قَالَ: وَرَبُّهُ يَعْذِرُهُ؛ لِأَنَّهُ يَرَى مَا لَا صَبْرَ لَهُ عَلَيْهِ، فَيُدْنِيهِ مِنْهَا فَيَسْتَظِلُّ بِظِلِّهَا، وَيَشْرَبُ مِنْ مَائِهَا، ثُمَّ تُرْفَعُ لَهُ شَجَرَةٌ هِيَ أَحْسَنُ مِنَ الْأُولَى، فَيَقُولُ: أَدْنِنِي مِنْ هَذِهِ الشَّجَرَةِ، فَأَشْرَبَ مِنْ مَائِهَا، وَأَسْتَظِلَّ بِظِلِّهَا لَا أَسْأَلُكَ غَيْرَهَا، فَيَقُولُ: يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ أَوَلَمْ تُعَاهِدْنِي أَنْ لَا تَسْأَلَنِي غَيْرَهَا ؟ وَرَبُّهُ يَعْذِرُهُ لِأَنَّهُ يَرَى مَا لَا صَبْرَ لَهُ عَلَيْهِ، فَيَقُولُ: لَعَلِّي إِنْ أَدْنَيْتُكَ مِنْهَا تَسْأَلُنِي غَيْرَهَا، فَيَقُولُ: لَا هَذِهِ هَذِهِ، فَيُدْنِيهِ مِنْهَا فَيَسْتَظِلُّ بِظِلِّهَا، وَيَشْرَبُ مِنْ مَائِهَا، ثُمَّ تُرْفَعُ لَهُ شَجَرَةٌ عِنْدَ بَابِ الْجَنَّةِ هِيَ أَحْسَنُ مِنَ الْأُولَيَيْنِ، فَيَقُولُ: أَيْ رَبِّ أَدْنِنِي مِنْ هَذِهِ الشَّجَرَةِ لِأَسْتَظِلَّ بِظِلِّهَا وَأَشْرَبَ مِنْ مَائِهَا، لَا أَسْأَلُكَ غَيْرَهَا، فَيَقُولُ يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ أَلَمْ تُعَاهِدْنِي أَلَّا تَسْأَلَنِي غَيْرَهَا، فَيَقُولُ: بَلَى، هَذِهِ لَا أَسْأَلُكَ غَيْرَهَا، وَرَبُّهُ يَعْذِرُهُ لِأَنَّهُ يَرَى مَا لَا صَبْرَ لَهُ عَلَيْهِ، فَيُدْنِيهِ مِنْهَا، فَإِذَا دَنَا مِنْهَا سَمِعَ أَصْوَاتَ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ، فَيَقُولُ: أَيْ رَبِّ أَدْخِلْنِيهَا، فَيَقُولُ: يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ، مَا يَصْرِينِي مِنْكَ إِنْ أَعْطَيْتُكَ الدُّنْيَا وَمِثْلَهَا مَعَهَا، فَيَقُولُ: أَيْ رَبِّ أَتَسْتَهْزِئُ بِي وَأَنْتَ رَبُّ الْعَالَمِينَ، وَضَحِكَ عَبْدُ اللهِ، فَقَالَ: أَلَا تَسْأَلُونِي مِمَّ أَضْحَكُ ؟ قَالُوا: مِمَّ ضَحِكْتَ ؟ قَالَ هَكَذَا ضَحِكَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ، فَقَالَ: أَلَا تَسْأَلُونِي مِمَّ أَضْحَكُ ؟ قَالُوا: مِمَّ تَضْحَكُ ؟ قَالَ: مِنْ ضَحِكِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ حِينَ قَالَ: أَتَسْتَهْزِئُ بِي، وَأَنْتَ رَبُّ الْعَالَمِينَ قَالَ: لَا أَسْتَهْزِئُ مِنْكَ، وَلَكِنِّي عَلَى مَا أَشَاءُ قَادِرٌ. وَلَا نَعْلَمُ رَوَى أَنَسُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ عَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ إِلَّا هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ.

   ✧ The last man to enter Paradise will walk at times, stumble at times, and be touched by the Fire at times. When he passes beyond it, he will turn to it and say: 'Blessed is the One who saved me from you. Allah has given me something He has not given anyone from the first and the last.' He said: Then Allah will raise up for him a tree, or a tree will be raised up for him, and he will say: 'O my Lord, bring me near to this tree so that I may shade myself under its shade and drink from its water.' He will say: 'O son of Adam, perhaps if I give it to you, you will ask Me for something else.' He said: He will say: 'No, my Lord.' He said: He will say: And He makes him promise not to ask for anything else. He said: And his Lord excuses him, because he sees what he cannot bear to be without. So He brings him near to it, and he shades himself under its shade and drinks from its water. Then a tree better than the first will be raised up for him, and he will say: 'Bring me near to this tree so that I may drink from its water and shade myself under its shade; I will not ask You for anything else.' He will say: 'O son of Adam, did you not promise Me not to ask Me for anything else?' And his Lord excuses him, because he sees what he cannot bear to be without. He will say: 'Perhaps if I bring you near to it, you will ask Me for something else.' He will say: 'No, this one, this one.' So He brings him near to it, and he shades himself under its shade and drinks from its water. Then a tree at the gate of Paradise, better than the first two, will be raised up for him, and he will say: 'O my Lord, bring me near to this tree so that I may shade myself under its shade and drink from its water; I will not ask You for anything else.' He will say: 'O son of Adam, did you not promise Me not to ask Me for anything else?' He will say: 'Yes, this one; I will not ask You for anything else.' And his Lord excuses him, because he sees what he cannot bear to be without. So He brings him near to it. When he draws near to it, he hears the voices of the people of Paradise and says: 'O my Lord, admit me into it.' He will say: 'O son of Adam, what will satisfy you from Me? If I gave you the world and the like of it with it.' He will say: 'O my Lord, are You mocking me while You are the Lord of the worlds?' 'Abdullah laughed and said: 'Will you not ask me why I laughed?' They said: 'Why did you laugh?' He said: 'This is how the Messenger of Allah ﷺ laughed, and he said: "Will you not ask me why I laughed?" They said: "Why did you laugh?" He said: "From the laughter of the Lord of the worlds when he said: 'Are You mocking me while You are the Lord of the worlds?' He said: 'I do not mock you, but I am able to do whatever I will.'"' And we do not know of Anas b. Malik narrating from Ibn Mas'ud, from the Prophet ﷺ, except this hadith.

    ✧ I was in my house in Kufah when I heard at the door of the house: 'Peace be upon you, may I enter?' I said: 'And upon you be peace, enter.' When he entered, it was 'Abdullah b. Mas'ud.

He began to narrate to me from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and I narrated to him. Then he began to narrate to me, saying: 'I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: "There will be a tribulation in which the one sleeping is better than the one lying down, and the one lying down is better than the one walking, and the one walking is better than the one riding, and the one riding is better than the one running. All of its slain will be in the Fire." He said: I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, when is that time?' He said: 'That is the days of al-harj.' I said: 'What are the days of al-harj?' He said: 'When a man does not trust his companion.' I said: 'What do you command me to do if I live to see that time?' He said: 'Stay in your house.' I said: 'What if my house is entered upon me?'

    ✧ We were with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in the campaign of Hunayn. He wanted to relieve himself, and whenever he wanted that, he would go far away so that no one could see him. He said: “Look—do you see anything?” I looked and saw a single palm tree, and I told him. He said: “Look—do you see anything?” I looked and saw another palm tree far from its companion, and I told him. He said to me: “Tell them that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ commands you to come together.” I told them that, and they came together. Then he came to them and screened himself with them, then stood up. When he had finished his need, each one of them went back to its place. Then the people were struck by severe thirst in that campaign. He said to Abdullah: “Seek for me”—meaning water. I brought him leftover water I had found in a water skin. He took it and poured it into a small vessel, then placed his hand in it and said “Bismillah.” The water began to flow from between his fingers, and the people drank and performed ablution as much as they wished. Abdullah said: I knew it was a blessing, so I began to drink from it and drink more, seeking its blessing. Then the Prophet ﷺ returned from the direction of Madinah, and a camel met him with tears in its eyes. He said: “Whose camel is this?” They said: “It belongs to Banu So-and-so.” He said: “It has sought refuge with me.” He said: They intended to slaughter it; they had worked it until it grew old and had sores on its back.

By Allah, I will ask the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.' When the next day came, he went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and asked him, saying: 'If a man finds another man with his wife, and he speaks, you would flog him; if he kills, you would kill him; and if he remains silent, he remains silent upon rage. O Allah, open [a way].' He kept supplicating, and then the verse of li'an was revealed: 'And those who accuse their wives and have no witnesses except themselves...' the verse. He said: 'That man was tested with it among the people.' He said: 'He came with his wife to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and they performed li'an. The man testified four testimonies by Allah that he was indeed among the truthful, then invoked the curse the fifth time, that the curse of Allah be upon him if he was among the liars.' He said: 'She went to invoke the curse, but the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "If she brings forth a black, curly-haired child, then it is for such and such." And she brought forth a black, curly-haired child.'

The first to be clothed will be Ibrahim, the Friend of Allah. He will say: Clothe him, and he will be clothed with two white garments, which he will put on. Then he will stand facing the Throne. Then my clothing will be brought, and I will put it on, and I will stand to his right in a position no one but me will stand, for which the first and the last will envy me." He said: "And a river from al-Kawthar will be opened to the Basin." The hypocrite said: Water rarely flows except over pebbles or smooth stones. He said: O Messenger of Allah, over pebbles or smooth stones? He said: "Its pebbles are musk, and its smooth stones are pearls." The hypocrite said: I have not heard the like of today, for water rarely flows over pebbles or smooth stones without having vegetation. The Ansari said: Does it have vegetation? He said: "Yes, stalks of gold." The hypocrite said: I have not heard the like of today, for a stalk rarely grows without bearing leaves and fruit. The Ansari said: O Messenger of Allah, does it have fruit? He said: "Yes, colors of jewels, and its water is whiter than milk and sweeter than honey. Whoever drinks a drink from it will never thirst again, and whoever is deprived of it will never be quenched."

He said: When he bowed, we placed our hands on our knees, but he struck our hands, and placed his palms together between his thighs. When he finished praying, he said: "There will be rulers over you who delay the prayer from its appointed time until the time when the dead are on the verge of death. When you see them do that, pray the prayer at its appointed time, then make your prayer with them a supererogatory one. If you are three, pray together; if you are more than that, let the eldest of you lead. When one of you bows, let him spread his forearms and thighs, then place his palms together."

He said: When he bowed, we placed our hands on our knees, but he struck our hands and clasped his hands together, then inserted them between his thighs. When he finished praying, he said: "There will be rulers over you who will delay the prayer from its time until the glow of the dead. If you see them do that, pray the prayer at its proper time, then make your prayer with them as supererogatory. If you are three, pray together; if you are more than that, let one of you lead. When one of you bows, let him spread his forearms on his thighs, then clasp his hands together. It is as if I am looking at the interlocking of the fingers of the Messenger of Allah."

     ✧ Indeed, al-salām (peace) is a name from among the names of Allah, which He placed on the earth. So spread it among yourselves. Indeed, when a Muslim man passes by a people and greets them with peace, and they respond to him, he has over them the virtue of a degree because he reminded them of peace. But if they do not respond to him, one who is better and purer than them responds to him.

Khalaf—Abu Ishaq said: and two other men whose names I do not remember—making seven, were in the Hijr, and the Messenger of God ﷺ was praying. When he prostrated and prolonged the prostration, Abu Jahl said: 'Which of you will go to the slaughtered camel of the Banu so-and-so and bring us its stomach contents and throw it on Muhammad ﷺ?' The most wretched of them, 'Uqbah b. Abi Mu'ayt, went and brought it and threw it on his shoulders while the Messenger of God ﷺ was prostrating. Ibn Mas'ud said: I was standing and could not speak; I had no clan to protect me, so I was afraid. Then I heard Fatimah, the daughter of the Messenger of God ﷺ, and she came and removed that from his shoulder, then turned to face Quraysh and reviled them, but they did not respond to her at all. The Messenger of God ﷺ raised his head as he would raise it at the completion of his prostration. When the Messenger of God ﷺ finished his prayer, he said: 'O God, [I invoke] You against Quraysh'—three times—'against 'Utbah, 'Uqbah, Abu Jahl, and Shaybah.' Then the Messenger of God ﷺ left the mosque, and Abu al-Bakhtari met him. Abu al-Bakhtari had a whip which he carried as a support. When he saw the Prophet ﷺ, he noticed a change in his face and said: 'What is the matter with you?' The Prophet ﷺ said: 'Leave me alone.' He said: 'God knows I will not leave you until you tell me what has happened to you, for something has befallen you.' When the Prophet ﷺ realized that he would not leave him, he told him: 'Abu Jahl ordered and stomach contents were thrown on me.' Abu al-Bakhtari said: 'Come to the mosque.' So the Prophet ﷺ and Abu al-Bakhtari came and entered the mosque. Then Abu al-Bakhtari went to Abu Jahl and said: 'O Abu al-Hakam, are you the one who ordered that stomach contents be thrown on Muhammad?' He said: 'Yes.' He said: Then he raised the whip and struck his head with it. He said: The men rose up against each other. He said: Abu Jahl shouted: 'Woe to you! This is for him [Muhammad]. He only wanted to stir up enmity between us and save himself and his companions.'

While I was sitting with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ resting his head on my thigh, suddenly there came to me men who seemed like men of the Hijaz, upon them white garments — Allah knows best how beautiful they were. A group of them sat at the head of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and a group at his feet. Then they said among themselves: “We have never seen anyone who has been given what this Prophet ﷺ was given: his eyes sleep while his heart remains awake. Strike a parable for him — I think he said: as a man who built a palace, then prepared a banquet and invited people to his food. Whoever answered him ate of his food and drank of his drink, and whoever did not answer him, he punished or was punished.” Then they departed. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ woke up and said to me: “Did you hear what these said, and do you know who they are?” I said: “Allah and His Messenger know best.” He said: “They are the angels.” He said: “Do you know the parable they struck?” I said: “Allah and His Messenger know best.” He said: “The parable they struck is the Lord, Blessed and Exalted: He built Paradise and called His servants to it. Whoever answered Him entered Paradise, and whoever did not answer Him, He punished or tormented.”
