قَالَ إِسْحَاقُ: أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَامِرٍ الْعَقَدِيُّ، ثَنَا أَبُو مَعْشَرٍ الْمَدَنِيُّ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ كَعْبٍ الْقُرَظِيِّ ؓ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ:
أَوَّلُ مَنْ يَدْخُلُ مِنْ بَابِ الْمَسْجِدِ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ. فَدَخَلَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ سَلَامٍ ؓ، فَقَالَ لَهُ رَجُلٌ: إِنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ كَذَا وَكَذَا، فَأَيُّ عَمَلٍ لَكَ أَوْثَقُ تَرْجُو بِهِ ؟ قَالَ: إِنَّ عَمَلِي لَضَعِيفٌ، وَإِنَّ أَوْثَقَ عَمَلِي أَرْجُو بِهِ - سَلَامَةُ صَدْرِي وَتَرْكِي مَا لَا يَعْنِينِي

✧ The first person to enter through the gate of the mosque will be a man from the people of Paradise. Abdullah ibn Salam ؓ entered. A man said to him: "The Prophet ﷺ said such-and-such. What deed of yours do you consider most reliable for your hope?" He said: "Indeed, my deeds are weak. The most reliable deed for which I hope is soundness of my heart and leaving what does not concern me."
