وَقَالَ أَبُو يَعْلَى: حَدَّثَنَا شَيْبَانُ، ثَنَا الصَّعْقُ بْنُ حَزْنٍ، ثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْحَكَمِ الْبُنَانِيُّ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ؓ فَذَكَرَ نَحْوَهُ، وَفِيهِ:
وَنَحْنُ نَدْعُوهُ عِنْدَنَا يَوْمَ الْمَزِيدِ، قُلْتُ: مَا الْمَزِيدُ ؟ قَالَ: إِنَّ اللهَ تَعَالَى جَعَلَ فِي الْجَنَّةِ وَادِيًا أَفْيَحَ، وَجَعَلَ فِيهِ كُثْبَانًا مِنَ الْمِسْكِ، فَإِذَا كَانَ يَوْمُ الْجُمُعَةِ نَزَلَ فِيهِ، وَقَالَ: اكْسُوا عِبَادِي، أَطْعِمُوا عِبَادِي، اسْقُوا عِبَادِي، طَيِّبُوا عِبَادِي، ثُمَّ يَقُولُ: مَاذَا تُرِيدُونَ ؟ قَالُوا: نُرِيدُ رِضْوَانَكَ رَبَّنَا، فَيَقُولُ: قَدْ رَضِيتُ عَنْكُمْ، فَيَنْطَلِقُونَ، وَتَصْعَدُ الْحُورُ الْعِينُ إِلَى الْغُرَفِ مِنْ زَبَرْجَدَةٍ خَضْرَاءَ، أَوْ يَاقُوتَةٍ حَمْرَاءَ

✧ We call it 'the Day of Increase' (yawm al-mazid). I said: 'What is al-mazid?' He said: 'Allah, Exalted is He, has made in Paradise a wide valley and has placed in it sandhills of musk. When it is Friday, He descends into it and says: "Clothe My servants, feed My servants, give drink to My servants, perfume My servants." Then He says: "What do you desire?" They say: "We desire Your good pleasure, our Lord." He says: "I am pleased with you." Then they depart, and the houris with wide lovely eyes ascend to the chambers of green chrysolite or red ruby.'
