حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ حَمَّادٍ ثنا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ ثنا بِشْرُ بْنُ عَوْنٍ ثنا بَكَّارُ بْنُ تَمِيمٍ عَنْ مَكْحُولٍ عَنْ وَاثِلَةَ بْنِ الْأَسْقَعِ
عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ يَبْعَثُ اللهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ عَبْدًا لَا ذَنْبَ لَهُ فَيَقُولُ اللهُ بِأَيِّ الْأَمْرَيْنِ أَحَبَّ إِلَيْكَ أَنْ أَجْزِيَكَ بِعَمَلِكَ أَوْ بِنِعْمَتِي عِنْدَكَ قَالَ رَبِّ إِنَّكَ تَعْلَمُ أَنِّي لَمْ أَعْصِكَ قَالَ خُذُوا عَبْدِي بِنِعْمَةٍ مِنْ نِعَمِي فَمَا تَبْقَى لَهُ حَسَنَةٌ إِلَّا اسْتَغْرَقَهَا تِلْكَ النِّعْمَةُ فَيَقُولُ رَبِّ بِنِعْمَتِكَ وَرَحْمَتِكَ فَيَقُولُ بِنِعْمَتِي وَرَحْمَتِي وَيُؤْتَى بِعَبْدٍ مُحْسِنٍ فِي نَفْسِهِ لَا يُرَى أَنَّ لَهُ ذَنْبًا فَيَقُولُ لَهُ هَلْ كُنْتَ تَوَالِي أَوْلِيَائِي؟ قَالَ كُنْتُ لِلنَّاسِ سَلْمًا قَالَ فَهَلْ كُنْتَ تُعَادِي أَعْدَائِي؟ قَالَ يَا رَبِّ لَمْ يَكُنْ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَ أَحَدٍ شَيْئًا فَيَقُولُ اللهُ ﷻ لَا يَنَالُ رَحْمَتِي مَنْ لَا يُوَالِي أَوْلِيَائِي ويُعَادِي أَعْدَائِي

✧ From the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, he said: "On the Day of Resurrection, Allah will raise a servant who has no sin. Allah will say: 'Which of the two matters would you prefer, that I recompense you according to your deeds or according to My blessings upon you?' He will say: 'My Lord, You know that I never disobeyed You.' He will say: 'Seize My servant by one of My blessings.' No good deed will remain for him except that this blessing will consume it. He will then say: 'My Lord, by Your blessing and Your mercy.' He will say: 'By My blessing and My mercy.' Then a servant who considers himself virtuous, seeing no sin for himself, will be brought. He will be asked: 'Did you befriend My friends?' He will say: 'I was at peace with people.' He will say: 'Did you show enmity to My enemies?' He will say: 'My Lord, there was nothing between me and anyone.' Allah, exalted is He, will say: 'My mercy will not reach one who does not befriend My friends and show enmity to My enemies.'"
