حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلاَءِ الْهَمْدَانِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ إِدْرِيسَ عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ السَّمَّانِ عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ قَالَ
قُلْنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَنَرَى رَبَّنَا قَالَ تَضَامُّونَ فِي رُؤْيَةِ الشَّمْسِ فِي الظَّهِيرَةِ فِي غَيْرِ سَحَابٍ قُلْنَا لاَ قَالَ فَتَضَارُّونَ فِي رُؤْيَةِ الْقَمَرِ لَيْلَةَ الْبَدْرِ فِي غَيْرِ سَحَابٍ قَالُوا لاَ قَالَ إِنَّكُمْ لاَ تَضَارُّونَ فِي رُؤْيَتِهِ إِلاَّ كَمَا تَضَارُّونَ فِي رُؤْيَتِهِمَا

"We said: 'O Messenger of Allah! Will we see our Lord?' He said: 'Do you crowd one another to see the sun at mid-day when there are no clouds?' We said: 'No.' He said: 'Do you crowd one another to see the moon on the night when it is full and there are no clouds?' We said: 'No.' He said: 'You will not crowd one another to see Him, just as you do not crowd to see these two things.'"

يرويه الأعمش واختلف عنه فرواه عبد الله بن إدريس عن الأعمش عن أبي صالح عن أبي سعيد الخدري وخالفه يحيى بن عيسى الرملي وعمرو بن عبد الغفار ومحمد بن جابر وجابر بن نوح فرووه عن الأعمش عن أبي صالح عن أبي هريرة وكذلك رواه وهيب عن مصعب بن محمد عن أبي صالح عن أبي هريرة ويشبه أن يكونا صحيحين
machine translationAl-Aʿmash narrates it, and there is disagreement about him. ʿAbdullāh b. Idrīs narrated it from al-Aʿmash, from Abū Ṣāliḥ, from Abū Saʿīd al-Khudrī. But Yaḥyā b. ʿĪsā al-Ramlī, ʿAmr b. ʿAbd al-Ghaffār, Muḥammad b. Jābir and Jābir b. Nūḥ differed from him, and narrated it from al-Aʿmash, from Abū Ṣāliḥ, from Abū Hurayrah. Likewise Wuhayb narrated it from Muṣʿab b. Muḥammad, from Abū Ṣāliḥ, from Abū Hurayrah. It seems that both are sound (ṣaḥīḥ).
