Sahih

حَدَّثَنِي عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، وَإِسْحَاقُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ، كِلَاهُمَا عَنْ رَوْحٍ، قَالَ عُبَيْدُ اللهِ: حَدَّثَنَا رَوْحُ بْنُ عُبَادَةَ الْقَيْسِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللهِ، يُسْأَلُ عَنِ الْوُرُودِ، فَقَالَ: نَجِيءُ نَحْنُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ عَنْ كَذَا وَكَذَا، انْظُرْ أَيْ ذَلِكَ فَوْقَ النَّاسِ؟ قَالَ: فَتُدْعَى الْأُمَمُ بِأَوْثَانِهَا، وَمَا كَانَتْ تَعْبُدُ، الْأَوَّلُ فَالْأَوَّلُ، ثُمَّ يَأْتِينَا رَبُّنَا بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ، فَيَقُولُ: مَنْ تَنْظُرُونَ؟ فَيَقُولُونَ: نَنْظُرُ رَبَّنَا، فَيَقُولُ: أَنَا رَبُّكُمْ، فَيَقُولُونَ: حَتَّى نَنْظُرَ إِلَيْكَ، فَيَتَجَلَّى لَهُمْ يَضْحَكُ، قَالَ: فَيَنْطَلِقُ بِهِمْ وَيَتَّبِعُونَهُ، وَيُعْطَى كُلُّ إِنْسَانٍ مِنْهُمْ مُنَافِقًا، أَوْ مُؤْمِنًا نُورًا، ثُمَّ يَتَّبِعُونَهُ وَعَلَى جِسْرِ جَهَنَّمَ كَلَالِيبُ وَحَسَكٌ، تَأْخُذُ مَنْ شَاءَ اللهُ، ثُمَّ يُطْفَأُ نُورُ الْمُنَافِقِينَ، ثُمَّ يَنْجُو الْمُؤْمِنُونَ، فَتَنْجُو أَوَّلُ زُمْرَةٍ وُجُوهُهُمْ كَالْقَمَرِ لَيْلَةَ الْبَدْرِ سَبْعُونَ أَلْفًا لَا يُحَاسَبُونَ، ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ كَأَضْوَأِ نَجْمٍ فِي السَّمَاءِ، ثُمَّ كَذَلِكَ ثُمَّ تَحِلُّ الشَّفَاعَةُ، وَيَشْفَعُونَ حَتَّى يَخْرُجَ مِنَ النَّارِ مِنْ قَالَ: لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ وَكَانَ فِي قَلْبِهِ مِنَ الْخَيْرِ مَا يَزِنُ شَعِيرَةً، فَيُجْعَلُونَ بِفِنَاءِ الْجَنَّةِ، وَيَجْعَلُ أَهْلُ الْجَنَّةِ يَرُشُّونَ عَلَيْهِمُ الْمَاءَ حَتَّى يَنْبُتُوا نَبَاتَ الشَّيْءِ فِي السَّيْلِ، وَيَذْهَبُ حُرَاقُهُ، ثُمَّ يَسْأَلُ حَتَّى تُجْعَلَ لَهُ الدُّنْيَا وَعَشَرَةُ أَمْثَالِهَا مَعَهَا.

He heard from Jabir bin 'Abdullah رضی ‌اللہ ‌عنہ ‌, who was asked about the arrival (of people on the Day of Resurrection). He said. We would come on the Day of Resurrection like this, like this, and see. carefully. that which concerns elevated people . He (the narrator) said: Then the people would be summoned along with their idols whom they worshipped, one after another. Then our Lord would come to us and say: Whom are you waiting for? They would say: We are waiting for our Lord. He would say: I am your Lord. They would say: (We are not sure) till we gaze at Thee, and He would manifest Himself to them smilingly, and would go along with them and they would follow Him; and every person, whether a hypocrite or a believer, would be endowed with a light, and there would be spikes and hooks on the bridge of the Hell, which would catch hold of those whom Allah willed. Then the light of the hypocrites would be extinguished, and the believers would secure salvation. and the first group to achieve it would comprise seventy thousand men who would have the brightness of full moon on their faces, and they would not be called to account. Then the people immediately following them would have their faces as the brightest stars in the heaven. This is how (the groups would follow one after another). Then the stage of intercession would come, and they (who are permitted to intercede) would intercede, till he who had declared: There is no god but Allah and had in his heart virtue of the weight of a barley grain would come out of the Fire. They would be then brought in the courtyard of Paradise and the inhabitants of Paradise would begin to sprinkle water over them till they would sprout like the sprouting of a thing in flood water, and their burns would disappear. They would ask their Lord till they would be granted (the bounties) of the world and with it ten more besides it.

Sahih

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الرَّبِيعِ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِعَمْرِو بْنِ دِينَارٍ: أَسَمِعْتَ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللهِ، يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِنَّ اللهَ يُخْرِجُ قَوْمًا مِنَ النَّارِ بِالشَّفَاعَةِ؟» قَالَ: نَعَمْ.

وَحَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجُ بْنُ الشَّاعِرِ، حَدَّثَنَا الْفَضْلُ بْنُ دُكَيْنٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ، يَعْنِي مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ أَبِي أَيُّوبَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي يَزِيدُ الْفَقِيرُ، قَالَ: كُنْتُ قَدْ شَغَفَنِي رَأْيٌ مِنْ رَأْيِ الْخَوَارِجِ، فَخَرَجْنَا فِي عِصَابَةٍ ذَوِي عَدَدٍ نُرِيدُ أَنْ نَحُجَّ، ثُمَّ نَخْرُجَ عَلَى النَّاسِ، قَالَ: فَمَرَرْنَا عَلَى الْمَدِينَةِ، فَإِذَا جَابِرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ يُحَدِّثُ الْقَوْمَ، جَالِسٌ إِلَى سَارِيَةٍ، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: فَإِذَا هُوَ قَدْ ذَكَرَ الْجَهَنَّمِيِّينَ، قَالَ: فَقُلْتُ لَهُ: يَا صَاحِبَ رَسُولِ اللهِ، مَا هَذَا الَّذِي تُحَدِّثُونَ؟ وَاللهُ يَقُولُ: {إِنَّكَ مَنْ تُدْخِلِ النَّارَ فَقَدْ أَخْزَيْتَهُ} [آل عمران: 192] وَ {كُلَّمَا أَرَادُوا أَنْ يَخْرُجُوا مِنْهَا أُعِيدُوا فِيهَا} [السجدة: 20]، فَمَا هَذَا الَّذِي تَقُولُونَ؟ قَالَ: فَقَالَ: «أَتَقْرَأُ الْقُرْآنَ؟» قُلْتُ: نَعَمْ، قَالَ: «فَهَلْ سَمِعْتَ بِمَقَامِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ - يَعْنِي الَّذِي يَبْعَثُهُ اللهُ فِيهِ -؟» قُلْتُ: نَعَمْ، قَالَ: «فَإِنَّهُ مَقَامُ مُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الْمَحْمُودُ الَّذِي يُخْرِجُ اللهُ بِهِ مَنْ يُخْرِجُ»، قَالَ: ثُمَّ نَعَتَ وَضْعَ الصِّرَاطِ، وَمَرَّ النَّاسِ عَلَيْهِ، - قَالَ: وَأَخَافُ أَنْ لَا أَكُونَ أَحْفَظُ ذَاكَ - قَالَ: غَيْرَ أَنَّهُ قَدْ زَعَمَ أَنَّ قَوْمًا يَخْرُجُونَ مِنَ النَّارِ بَعْدَ أَنْ يَكُونُوا فِيهَا، قَالَ: - يَعْنِي - فَيَخْرُجُونَ كَأَنَّهُمْ عِيدَانُ السَّمَاسِمِ، قَالَ: «فَيَدْخُلُونَ نَهَرًا مِنْ أَنْهَارِ الْجَنَّةِ، فَيَغْتَسِلُونَ فِيهِ، فَيَخْرُجُونَ كَأَنَّهُمُ الْقَرَاطِيسُ»، فَرَجَعْنَا قُلْنَا: وَيْحَكُمْ أَتُرَوْنَ الشَّيْخَ يَكْذِبُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ؟ فَرَجَعْنَا فَلَا وَاللهِ مَا خَرَجَ مِنَّا غَيْرُ رَجُلٍ وَاحِدٍ، أَوْ كَمَا قَالَ: أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ.

This view of the Khawarij (i.e. those who commit major sins and would be eternally doomed to Hell) had obsessed me, and we set out in a large group intending to perform the Hajj and then going to the people (for the propagation of the views of the Khawarij). He (the narrator) said: We happened to past by Medina and found there Jabir b. 'Abdullah sitting near a column narrating to the people (the ahadith of) the Prophet ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ). When he mentioned the inhabitants of Hell, I said: O companion of the Messenger of Allah what is this that you narrate, whereas Allah says: Verily whomsoever Thou shall commit to the Fire, Thou indeed humiliateth him (al-Qur'an, iii. 192); and All those who endeavored to get out of that would be thrown back into it (al-Qur'an, xxxi i. 20)? So what is it that you say? He said: Have you read the Qur'an? I said: Yes. He said: Have you heard about the (exalted) position of Muhammad ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ), i.e. to which Allah would raise, him? I said: Yes. He said: Verily the position of Muhammad ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) is that of great glory and that is by which Allah would bring out whomsoever He would wish to bring out. He then described the Path (the Bridge) and the passing of the people over it, and said: I am afraid I may not have remembered (other things) but this much is still in my memory that people would come out of the Hell after having gone into it, and he said: They would come out of it as if they were the wood of the ebony tree. He (the narrator said: They would enter a river, one or the rivers of Paradise, and would bathe in it, and then come out as if they were (white like) paper. We then turned back and said: Woe be upon you! How can this old man tell a lie against the Messenger of Allah ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ )? We turned back (from the views of the Khawarij), and by God every one of us abandoned this (band of Khawarij) except one man. A similar statement has been made by Abu Nu'aim.

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كَامِلٍ فُضَيْلُ بْنُ حُسَيْنٍ الْجَحْدَرِيُّ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ الْغُبَرِيُّ - وَاللَّفْظُ لِأَبِي كَامِلٍ - قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: يَجْمَعُ اللهُ النَّاسَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ فَيَهْتَمُّونَ لِذَلِكَ - وَقَالَ ابْنُ عُبَيْدٍ: فَيُلْهَمُونَ لِذَلِكَ - فَيَقُولُونَ: لَوْ اسْتَشْفَعْنَا عَلَى رَبِّنَا حَتَّى يُرِيحَنَا مِنْ مَكَانِنَا هَذَا، قَالَ: فَيَأْتُونَ آدَمَ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَيَقُولُونَ: أَنْتَ آدَمُ، أَبُو الْخَلْقِ، خَلَقَكَ اللهُ بِيَدِهِ، وَنَفَخَ فِيكَ مِنْ رُوحِهِ، وَأَمَرَ الْمَلَائِكَةَ فَسَجَدُوا لَكَ، اشْفَعْ لَنَا عِنْدَ رَبِّكَ حَتَّى يُرِيحَنَا مِنْ مَكَانِنَا هَذَا، فَيَقُولُ: لَسْتُ هُنَاكُمْ، فَيَذْكُرُ خَطِيئَتَهُ الَّتِي أَصَابَ، فَيَسْتَحْيِي رَبَّهُ مِنْهَا، وَلَكِنِ ائْتُوا نُوحًا أَوَّلَ رَسُولٍ بَعَثَهُ اللهُ ، قَالَ: فَيَأْتُونَ نُوحًا صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَيَقُولُ: لَسْتُ هُنَاكُمْ، فَيَذْكُرُ خَطِيئَتَهُ الَّتِي أَصَابَ، فَيَسْتَحْيِي رَبَّهُ مِنْهَا، وَلَكِنِ ائْتُوا إِبْرَاهِيمَ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الَّذِي اتَّخَذَهُ اللهُ خَلِيلًا، فَيَأْتُونَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَيَقُولُ: لَسْتُ هُنَاكُمْ، وَيَذْكُرُ خَطِيئَتَهُ الَّتِي أَصَابَ، فَيَسْتَحْيِي رَبَّهُ مِنْهَا، وَلَكِنِ ائْتُوا مُوسَى صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، الَّذِي كَلَّمَهُ اللهُ وَأَعْطَاهُ التَّوْرَاةَ، قَالَ: فَيَأْتُونَ مُوسَى عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ، فَيَقُولُ: لَسْتُ هُنَاكُمْ، وَيَذْكُرُ خَطِيئَتَهُ الَّتِي أَصَابَ، فَيَسْتَحْيِي رَبَّهُ مِنْهَا، وَلَكِنِ ائْتُوا عِيسَى رُوحَ اللهِ وَكَلِمَتَهُ، فَيَأْتُونَ عِيسَى رُوحَ اللهِ وَكَلِمَتَهُ، فَيَقُولُ: لَسْتُ هُنَاكُمْ، وَلَكِنِ ائْتُوا مُحَمَّدًا صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَبْدًا قَدْ غُفِرَ لَهُ مَا تَقَدَّمَ مِنْ ذَنْبِهِ وَمَا تَأَخَّرَ ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: فَيَأْتُونِي فَأَسْتَأْذِنُ عَلَى رَبِّي، فَيُؤْذَنُ لِي، فَإِذَا أَنَا رَأَيْتُهُ وَقَعْتُ سَاجِدًا، فَيَدَعُنِي مَا شَاءَ اللهُ، فَيُقَالُ: يَا مُحَمَّدُ، ارْفَعْ رَأْسَكَ، قُلْ تُسْمَعْ، سَلْ تُعْطَهْ، اشْفَعْ تُشَفَّعْ، فَأَرْفَعُ رَأْسِي، فَأَحْمَدُ رَبِّي بِتَحْمِيدٍ يُعَلِّمُنِيهِ رَبِّي، ثُمَّ أَشْفَعُ فَيَحُدُّ لِي حَدًّا، فَأُخْرِجُهُمْ مِنَ النَّارِ، وَأُدْخِلُهُمُ الْجَنَّةَ، ثُمَّ أَعُودُ فَأَقَعُ سَاجِدًا، فَيَدَعُنِي مَا شَاءَ اللهُ أَنْ يَدَعَنِي، ثُمَّ يُقَالُ: ارْفَعْ يَا مُحَمَّدُ، قُلْ تُسْمَعْ، سَلْ تُعْطَهْ، اشْفَعْ تُشَفَّعْ، فَأَرْفَعُ رَأْسِي، فَأَحْمَدُ رَبِّي بِتَحْمِيدٍ يُعَلِّمُنِيهِ، ثُمَّ أَشْفَعُ فَيَحُدُّ لِي حَدًّا، فَأُخْرِجَهُمْ مِنَ النَّارِ وَأُدْخِلُهُمُ الْجَنَّةَ - قَالَ: فَلَا أَدْرِي فِي الثَّالِثَةِ أَوْ فِي الرَّابِعَةِ - قَالَ فَأَقُولُ: يَا رَبِّ، مَا بَقِيَ فِي النَّارِ إِلَّا مَنْ حَبَسَهُ الْقُرْآنُ، أَيْ وَجَبَ عَلَيْهِ الْخُلُودُ . قَالَ ابْنُ عُبَيْدٍ فِي رِوَايَتِهِ: قَالَ قَتَادَةُ: «أَيْ وَجَبَ عَلَيْهِ الْخُلُودُ».

The Messenger of Allah ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) said: Allah would gather people on the Day of Resurrection and they would be concerned about it, and Ibn Ubaid said. They would get a Divine inspiration about it, and would say: If we could seek intercession with our Lord, we may be relieved from this predicament of ours. He (the Holy Prophet ﷺ) said: They would come to Adam andsay, Thou art Adam, the father of mankind. Allah created thee with His own hand and breathed unto thee of His Spirit and commanded the angels and they prostrated before thee. So intercede for us with thy Lords, that He may relieve us from this position of ours. He would say: I am not in a position to do this, and would recall his error, and would fight shy of his Lord on account of that; go to Noah the first messenger (after me) sent by Allah. He (the Holy Prophet ﷺ) said: So they would come to Noah (peace be upon him). He would say: I am not in a position to do that for you, and recall his fault which he had committed, and would fight shy of his Lord on account of that, (and would say): You better go to Ibrahim (peace be upon him) whom Allah took for a friend. They would come to Ibrahim (peace be upon him) and he would say: I am not in a position to do that for you, and would recall his fault that he had committed and would, therefore, fight shy of his Lord on that account (and would say): You better go to Moses (peace be upon him) with whom Allah conversed and con- ferred Torah upon him. He (the Holy Prophet) said: So they would come to Moses (peace be upon him) He would say: I am not in a position to do that for you, and would recall his fault that he had committed and would fight shy of his Lord on account of that (and would say): You better go to Jesus, the Spirit of Allah and His word He would say: I am not in a position to do that for you; you better go to Muhammad ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ), a servant whose former and later sins have been forgiven. He (the narrator) said: The Messenger or Allah ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) observed: So they would come to me and I would ask the permission of my Lord and it would be granted to me, and when I would see Him, I would fall down in prostration, and He (Allah) would leave me thus as long as He would wish, and then it would be said: O Muhammad, raise your head, say and you would be heard; ask and it would be granted; intercede and intercession would be accepted. Then I would raise my head and extrol my Lord with the praise which my Lord would teach me. I shall then inter- cede, but a limit would be set for me I would bring them out from the Fire and make them enter Paradise (according to the limit). I shall return then ard fall down in pros- tration and Allah would leave me (in that position) as long as He would wish to leave me it would be said: Rise, O Muhammad, say and you would be heard; ask and it would be conferred; intercede and intercession would be granted. I would raise my head and extrol my Lord with praise that He would teach me. I would theft intercede and a limit would be set for me. I would bring them out of the Fire (of Hell) and make them enter Paradise. He (the narrator) said: I do not remember whether he (the Holy Prophet) said at tLe third time or at the fourth time: O my Lord, none has been left in the Fire, but thise restrained by the Holy Qur'an, i e. those who were eternally doomed. Ibn Ubaid said in a narration: Qatada observed: whose everlasting stay was imperative .

وَحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عَدِيٍّ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «يَجْتَمِعُ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ فَيَهْتَمُّونَ بِذَلِكَ» - أَوْ يُلْهَمُونَ ذَلِكَ - بِمِثْلِ حَدِيثِ أَبِي عَوَانَةَ، وَقَالَ فِي الْحَدِيثِ: ثُمَّ آتِيهِ الرَّابِعَةَ - أَوْ أَعُودُ الرَّابِعَةَ - فَأَقُولُ: يَا رَبِّ، مَا بَقِيَ إِلَّا مَنْ حَبَسَهُ الْقُرْآنُ.

The Messenger of Allah ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) said: The believers would gather on the Day of Resurrection, and they would be concerned about it, or would be made mindful of it (i. e. the trjuble for it), (and the remaining part of the hadith w, ) uld be narrated) like the one transmitted by Abu Uwana, and he said in the hadith: Then I would come for the fourth time, or I would return the fourth time, and would say: O my Lord, no one has been left but he whom the Holy Qur'an has restrained.

Sahih

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، أَنَّ نَبِيَّ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «يَجْمَعُ اللهُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ فَيُلْهَمُونَ لِذَلِكَ» بِمِثْلِ حَدِيثِهِمَا، وَذَكَرَ فِي الرَّابِعَةِ: فَأَقُولُ: يَا رَبِّ، مَا بَقِيَ فِي النَّارِ إِلَّا مَنْ حَبَسَهُ الْقُرْآنُ أَيْ وَجَبَ عَلَيْهِ الْخُلُودُ.

The Prophet of Allah (may peace be, upon him) said: Allah will gather the believers on the Day of Resurrection and they would be made mindful of it; and the rest (of the hadith) is like the one narrated above; and then he mentioned the fourth time: And I (the Holy Prophet) would say: O my Lord, no one is left in the Fire except he whom the Qur'an has restrained, i e. eternally doomed.

Verily the Apostle ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) said: He who professed: There is no god but Allah, would be brought out of the Fire even though he has in his heart virtue equal to the weight of a barley grain. Then he who professed: There is no god but Allah, would come out of the Fire, even though he has in his heart virtue equal to the weight of a wheat grain. He would then bring out from the Fire he who professed: There is no god but Allah, even though he has in his heart virtue equal to the weight of an atom. Ibn Minhal has made an addition (of these words) in his narration: Yazid said: I met Shu'ba and narrated to him this hadith. Shu'ba said: Qatada transmitted to us this hadith from Anas bin Malik رضی ‌اللہ ‌عنہ who heard it from the Messenger of Allah ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) with this alteration that he substituted the word Zurra (grain) in place of Zarra (atom). Yazid said: Abu Bistam has made a change in it.

We went to Anas bin Malik ‌رضی ‌اللہ ‌عنہ ‌through Thabit and reached there (his house) while he was offering the forenoon prayer. Thabit sought permission for us and we entered, and he seated Thabit with him on his bedstead. He (Thabit) said to him (Anas bin Malik): O Abu Hamza (kunya of Anas b. Malik), your brothers from among the inhabitants of Basra ask you to narrate to them the hadith of intercession. He said: Muhammad ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) narrated to us: When it would be the Day of Resurrection, some of the people would rush to one another in bewilderment. They would come to Adam and say: Intercede (with your Lord) for your progeny. He would say: I am not fit to do this, but go to Ibrabim (peace be upon him) for he is the Friend of Allah. They would come to Ibrahim, but he would say: I am not fit to do this, but go to Moses, for he is Allah's Interlocutor. They would come to Moses, but he would say: I am not fit to do this, but you should go to Jesus, for he is the Spirit of Allah and His word. They would come to Jesus, and he would say, I am not fit to do this; you better go to Muhammad ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌). They would come to me, and I would say: I am in a position to do that, I would go and ask the permission of my Lord and it would be granted to me. I would then stand before Him and would extol Him with praises which I am not able to do now, but with which Allah would inspire me, then I would fall in prostration and it would be said to me: O Muhammad, raise thy head, and say and it would be listened to; ask and it would be granted, intercede and it would be accepted. I shall say: My Lord, my people, my people It would be said: Go, and bring forth from it (Hell) him who has in his heart faith equal to the weight of a wheat grain or a barley seed. I would go and do that; then I would return to my Lord and extol Him with those praises (taught to me by Allah), then I would fall in prostration. It would be said to me: O Muhammad, raise your head, and say and it would be heard; ask and it would be granted; intercede and intercession would be accepted. So I would say: My people. my people. It would be said to me: Go and take out from it (Hell) him who has in his heart faith equal to the weight of a mustard seed. I would go and do that. I would again return to my Lord and extol Him with those praises. I would then fall in prostration. It would be said to me: O Muhammad, raisevour head: say, and you would be listened to; ask and it would be granted; intercede and intercession would be accepted. I would say: My Lord, my people, my people. It would be said to me: Go, and bring out of the Fire him who has in his heart as much faith as the smallest, smallest, smallest grain of mustard seed. I would go and do that. This is the hadith which Anas narrated to us. We went out of his (house) and when we reached the upper part of Jabban (graveyard) we said: Would that we meet Hasan and salute him and he was hiding in the house of Abu Khalifa. He (Ma'bad b. Hilal, the narrator) said: We went to him and greeted him and we said: O Abu Sa'id, we come from your brother Abu Hamza (kunya of Anas), and we have never heard a hadith like this relating to intercession, which he has narrated to us. He said: Narrate it, we narrated the hadith. He said: Narrate it (still further). We said: He did not (narrate it) before us more than this. He said: He (Anas) had narrated it to us twenty years back, when he was strong and healthy. He has in fact missed something. I cannot make out whether the old man has forgotten or he has (intentionally) avoided to narrate it to you lest you should rely (absolutely) upon it (and abandon doing good deeds). We said to him: Relate that to us, and he laughed and said: There is haste in the nature of man. I did not make mention of it to you but for the fact that I wanted to narrate that to you (and added that the Prophet said): I would then return to my Lord for the fourth time and extol Him with these praises. I would then fall in prostration. It would be said to me: O Muhammad, raise your head: say and it will be listened to; ask and it will be granted; intercede and intercession would be accepted. I would say: O my Lord, permit me regarding him who professed: There is no god but Allah. He (the Lord) would say: That is not for thee or that is not what lies with thee, but by My Honour, Glory, Greatness and Might, I would certainly take him out who professed it: There is no god but Allah. He (the narrator, Ma'bad) said: I hear testimony to the fact that the hadith transmitted to us-by Hasan was heard by him from Anas b. Malik and I can see that he reported it twenty years back, when he was hale and hearty.

Meat was one day brought to the Messenger of Allah ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) and a foreleg was offered to him, a part which he liked. He sliced with his teeth a piece out of it and said: I shall be the leader of mankind on the Day of Resurrection. Do you know why? Allah would gather in one plain the earlier and the later (of the human race) on the Day of Resurrection. Then the voice of the proclaimer would be heard by all of them and the eyesight would penetrate through all of them and the sun would come near. People would then experience a degree of anguish, anxiety and agony which they shall not be able to bear and they shall not be able to stand. Some people would say to the others: Don you see in which trouble you are? Don't you see what (misfortune) has overtaken you? Why don't you find one who should intercede for you with your Lord? Some would say to the others: Go to Adam. And they would go to Adam and say: O Adam, thou art the father of mankind. Allah created thee by His own Hand and breathed in thee of His spirit and ordered the angels to prostrate before thee. Intercede for us with thy Lord Don't you see in what (trouble) we are? Don't you see what (misfortune) has overtaken us? Adam would say: Verily, my Lord is angry, to an extent to which He had never been angry before nor would He be angry afterward. Verily, He forbade me (to go near) that tree and I disobeyed Him. I am concerned with my own self. Go to someone else; go to Noah. They would come to Noah and would say: O Noah, thou art the first of the Messengers (sent) on the earth (after Adam), and Allah named thee as a Grateful Servant, intercede for us with thy Lord. Don't you see in what (trouble) we are? Don't you see what (misfortune) has overtaken us? He would say: Verily, my Lord is angry today as He had never been angry before, and would never be angry afterwards. There had emanated a curse from me with which I cursed my people. I am concerned with only myself, I am concerned only with myself; you better go to Ibrahim (peace be upon him). They would go to Ibrahim and say: Thou art the apostle of Allah and His Friend amongst the inhabitants of the earth; intercede for us with thy Lord. Don't you see in which (trouble) we are? Don't you see what (misfortune) has overtaken us? Ibrahim would say to them: Verily, my Lord is today angry as He had never been angry before and would never be angry afterwards. and (Ibrahim) would mention his lies (and then say): I am concerned only with myself, I am concerned only with myself. You better go to someone else: go to Moses. They would come to Moses (peace be upon him) and say: O Moses, thou art Allah's messenger, Allah blessed thee with His messengership and His conversation amongst people. Intercede for us with thy Lord. Don't you see in what (trouble) we are? Don't you see what (misfortune) has overtaken us? Moses (peace be upon him) would say to them: Verily. my Lord is angry as He had never been angry before and would never be angry afterwards. I, in fact, killed a person whom I had not been ordered to kill. I am concerned with myself, I am concerned with myself. You better go to Jesus (peace be upon him). They would come to Jesus and would say: O Jesus, thou art the messenger of Allah and thou conversed with people in the cradle, (thou art) His Word which I-Ie sent down upon Mary. and (thou art) the Spirit from Him; so intercede for us with thy Lord. Don't you see (the trouble) in which we are? Don't you see (the misfortune) that has overtaken us? Jesus (peace be upon him) would say: Verily, my Lord is angry today as He had never been angry before or would ever be angry afterwards. He mentioned no sin of his. (He simply said: ) I am concerned with myself, I am concerned with myself; you go to someone else: better go to Muhammad ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ). They would come to me and say: O Mahammad, thou art the messenger of Allah and the last of the apostles. Allah has pardoned thee all thy previous and later sins. Intercede for us with thy Lord; don't you see in which (trouble) we are? Don't you see what (misfortune) has overtaken us? I shall then set off and come below the Throne and fall down prostrate before my Lord; then Allah would reveal to me and inspire me with some of His Praises and Glorifications which He had not revealed to anyone before me. He would then say: Muhammad, raise thy head; ask and it would be granted; intercede and intercession would be accepted I would then raise my head and say: O my Lord, my people, my people. It would be said: O Muhammad, bring in by the right gate of Paradise those of your people who would have no account to render. They would share with the people some other door besides this door. The Prophet then said: By Him in Whose Hand is the life of Muhammad, verify the distance between two door leaves of the Paradise is as great as between Mecca and Hajar, or as between Mecca and Busra.

وَحَدَّثَنِي زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنْ عُمَارَةَ بْنِ الْقَعْقَاعِ، عَنْ أَبِي زُرْعَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: وُضِعَتْ بَيْنَ يَدَيْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَصْعَةٌ مِنْ ثَرِيدٍ وَلَحْمٍ، فَتَنَاوَلَ الذِّرَاعَ وَكَانَتْ أَحَبَّ الشَّاةِ إِلَيْهِ، فَنَهَسَ نَهْسَةً، فَقَالَ: «أَنَا سَيِّدُ النَّاسِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ»، ثُمَّ نَهَسَ أُخْرَى، فَقَالَ: «أَنَا سَيِّدُ النَّاسِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ»، فَلَمَّا رَأَى أَصْحَابَهُ لَا يَسْأَلُونَهُ قَالَ: «أَلَا تَقُولُونَ كَيْفَهْ؟» قَالُوا: كَيْفَهْ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ قَالَ: «يَقُومُ النَّاسُ لِرَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ» وَسَاقَ الْحَدِيثَ بِمَعْنَى حَدِيثِ أَبِي حَيَّانَ، عَنْ أَبِي زُرْعَةَ، وَزَادَ فِي قِصَّةِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ فَقَالَ: وَذَكَرَ قَوْلَهُ فِي الْكَوْكَبِ: ِ {هَذَا رَبِّي} [الأنعام: 76] وَقَوْلَهُ لِآلِهَتِهِمْ: {بَلْ فَعَلَهُ كَبِيرُهُمْ هَذَا} [الأنبياء: 63]، وَقَوْلَهُ: {إِنِّي سَقِيمٌ} [الصافات: 89]، قَالَ: وَالَّذِي نَفْسُ مُحَمَّدٍ بِيَدِهِ، إِنَّ مَا بَيْنَ الْمِصْرَاعَيْنِ مِنْ مَصَارِيعِ الْجَنَّةِ إِلَى عِضَادَتَيِ الْبَابُِ لَكَمَا بَيْنَ مَكَّةَ وَهَجَرٍ، أَوْ هَجَرٍ وَمَكَّةَ، قَالَ: لَا أَدْرِي أَيَّ ذَلِكَ قَالَ.

There was placed before the Messenger of Allah a cup of soft bread, soup and meat. He took part of the foreleg which he liked most. He sliced (with his teeth) a slice (out of that) and said: I would be the leader of mankind on the Day of Resurrection. He then sliced (that meat) for the second time and said: I am the leader of mankind on the Day of Resurrection. When he saw that his companions did not ask him (about this assertion) he said: Why don't you say: How would that be? They said: How would be it, Messenger of Allah? He said: People would stand before the Lord of the worlds. And the rest of the hadith was narrated like the one transmitted by Abu Hayyan, on the authority of Abu Zur'a, and in the story of Ibrahim, this addition was made. He said and made mention of his words with regard to the star: This is my Lord. And his words with regard to their gods: But the big among them has done that. And his words: I am ailing. He (the Holy Prophet) said: By Him in Whose Hand is the life of Muhammad, the distance between two leaves of the door from their supporting frames is as the distance between Mecca and Hajar or Hajar and Mecca. I do not remember how he said it (whether Mecca and Hajar or Hajar and Mecca).

The Messenger of Allah ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) said: Allah, the Blessed and Exalted, would gather people. The believers would stand till the Paradise would be brought near them. They would come to Adam and say: O our father, open for us the Paradise. He would say: What turned ye out from the Paradise was the sin of your father Adam. I am not in a position to do that; better go to my son Ibrahim, the Friend of Allah. He (the Holy Prophet) said: He (Ibrahim) would say: I am not in a position to do that. Verily I had been the Friend (of Allah) from beyond, beyond; you better approach Moses (peace be upon him) with whom Allah conversed. They would come to Moses (peace be upon him), but he would say: I am not in a position to do that; you better go to Jesus, the Word of Allah and His Spirit. Jesus (peace be upon him) would say: I am not in a position to do that. So they would come to Muhammad ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ). He would then be permitted (to open the door of Paradise). Trustworthiness and kinship would be despatched, and these would stand on the right and left of the Path and the first of you would pass with (the swiftness) of lightning. He (the narrator) said: I said, O thou who art far dearer to me than my father and my mother I which thing is like the passing of lightning? He said: Have you not seen lightning, how it passes and then comes back within the twinkling of an eye? Then (they would pass) like the passing of the wind, then like the passing of a bird, and the hastening of persons would be according to their deeds, and your Apostle would be standing on the Path saying: Save, O my Lord, save. (The people would go on passing) till the deeds of the servants would be failing in strength, till a man would come who would find it hard to go along (that Path) but crawlingly. He (the narrator) said: And on the sides of the Path hooks would be suspended ready to catch anyone whom these would be required (to catch). There would be those who would somehow or other succeed in trasversing that Path and some would be piled up in Hell. By Him in Whose Hand is the life of Abu Huraira it would take one seventy years to fathom the depth of Hell.
