حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعُ بْنُ الْجَرَّاحِ، عَنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ ضَمْرَةَ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ عَلِيًّا يَقُولُ:
﴿وَسِيقَ الَّذِينَ اتَّقَوْا رَبَّهُمْ إِلَى الْجَنَّةِ زُمَرًا ﴾حَتَّى إِذَا انْتَهَوْا إِلَى بَابٍ مِنْ أَبْوَابِ الْجَنَّةِ وَجَدُوا عِنْدَ بَابِهَا شَجَرَةً يَخْرُجُ مِنْ تَحْتِ سَاقِهَا عَيْنَانِ فَيَأْتُونَ إِحْدَاهُمَا كَأَنَّمَا أُمِرُوا بِهَا فَيَتَطَهَّرُونَ مِنْهَا، فَتَجْرِي عَلَيْهِمْ بِنَضْرَةِ النَّعِيمِ، قَالَ: فَلَا تَتَغَيَّرُ أَبْشَارُهُمْ بَعْدَهَا أَبَدًا، وَلَا تَشْعَثُ شُعُورُهُمْ بَعْدَهَا أَبَدًا، كَأَنَّمَا دُهِنُوا بِالدِّهَانِ، قَالَ: ثُمَّ يَعْمِدُونَ إِلَى الْأُخْرَى فَيَشْرَبُونَ مِنْهَا فَتَذْهَبُ بِمَا فِي بُطُونِهِمْ مِنْ أَذًى أَوْ قَذًى. 2 - وَتَتَلَقَّاهُمُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ فَيَقُولُونَ: ﴿سَلامٌ عَلَيْكُمْ طِبْتُمْ فَادْخُلُوهَا خَالِدِينَ ﴾، قَالَ: وَيَتَلَقَّى كُلُّ غِلْمَانٍ صَاحِبَهُمْ يُطِيفُونَ بِهِ فِعْلَ الْوِلْدَانِ بِالْحَمِيمِ يَقْدَمُ مِنَ الْغَيْبَةِ: أَبْشِرْ قَدْ أَعَدَّ اللهُ لَكَ مِنَ الْكَرَامَةِ كَذَا، قَالَ: وَيَسْبِقُ غِلْمَانٌ مِنْ غِلْمَانِهِ إِلَى أَزْوَاجِهِ مِنَ الْحُورِ الْعِينِ فَيَقُولُونَ لَهُنَّ: هَذَا فُلَانٌ - بِاسْمِهِ فِي الدُّنْيَا - قَدْ أَتَاكُنَّ، قَالَ: فَيَقُلْنَ: أَنْتُمْ رَأَيْتُمُوهُ ؟ فَيَقُولُونَ: نَعَمْ، قَالَ: فَيَسْتَخِفُّهُنَّ الْفَرَحُ حَتَّى يَخْرُجْنَ إِلَى أُسْكُفَّةِ الْبَابِ. 3 - قَالَ: وَيَدْخُلُ الْجَنَّةَ فَإِذَا نَمَارِقُ مَصْفُوفَةٌ، وَأَكْوَابٌ مَوْضُوعَةٌ، وَزَرَابِيُّ مَبْثُوثَةٌ، فَيَتَّكِئُ عَلَى أَرِيكَةٍ مِنْ أَرَائِكِهِ، قَالَ: فَيَنْظُرُ إِلَى تَأْسِيسِ بُنْيَانِهِ فَإِذَا هُوَ قَدْ أُسِّسَ عَلَى جَنْدَلِ اللُّؤْلُؤِ بَيْنَ أَصْفَرَ وَأَحْمَرَ وَأَخْضَرَ وَمِنْ كُلِّ لَوْنٍ، قَالَ: ثُمَّ يَرْفَعُ طَرْفَهُ إِلَى سَقْفِهِ فَلَوْلَا أَنَّ اللهَ قَدَّرَهُ لَهُ لَأَلَمَّ بِبَصَرِهِ [١]أَنْ يَذْهَبَ بِالْبَرْقِ ثُمَّ قَرَأَ: ﴿وَقَالُوا الْحَمْدُ لِلهِ الَّذِي هَدَانَا لِهَذَا [وَمَا كُنَّا لِنَهْتَدِيَ لَوْلا أَنْ هَدَانَا اللهُ ] ﴾[٢]

﴿وَسِيقَ الَّذِينَ اتَّقَوْا رَبَّهُمْ إِلَى الْجَنَّةِ زُمَرًا ﴾ until, when they reach a gate of the gates of Paradise, they find at its gate a tree from beneath whose trunk two springs flow. They go to one of them, as though they had been commanded to, and they purify themselves from it, and the freshness of bliss flows over them. He said: After that their skins never change, and their hair is never disheveled, as though they had been anointed with oil. He said: Then they head for the other spring and drink from it, and it removes whatever harm or impurity is in their bellies. 2 - The angels receive them and say: ﴿سَلامٌ عَلَيْكُمْ طِبْتُمْ فَادْخُلُوهَا خَالِدِينَ ﴾. He said: And each group of servant boys receives their master and surrounds him, as children do with a close friend who returns from an absence, saying: Rejoice, for Allah has prepared for you such and such honor. He said: And some of his servant boys go ahead to his spouses among the wide-eyed houris and say to them: This is so-and-so, naming him by his name in the world, he has come to you. He said: They say: Did you see him? They say: Yes. He said: Joy makes them light with excitement until they come out to the threshold of the door. 3 - He said: He enters Paradise, and there are cushions set in rows, goblets placed ready, and carpets spread out. He reclines on one of his couches. He said: He looks at the foundation of his building, and it is founded on pebbles of pearl, between yellow, red, green, and every color. He said: Then he raises his gaze to its ceiling, and had Allah not decreed it for him, it would have struck his sight [1] and taken it away like lightning. Then he recited: ﴿وَقَالُوا الْحَمْدُ لِلهِ الَّذِي هَدَانَا لِهَذَا [وَمَا كُنَّا لِنَهْتَدِيَ لَوْلا أَنْ هَدَانَا اللهُ ] ﴾ [2]
