[Machine] On the authority of the Prophet ﷺ who said: "Shall I not inform you about the people of Paradise and the people of Hellfire? As for the people of Paradise, they are every weak, oppressed, disheveled individual who, if they were to swear by Allah, He would fulfill their oath. And as for the people of Hellfire, they are every arrogant, stubborn, prideful, and disobedient individual."  

أحمد:١٢٤٧٦ – حَدَّثَنَا حَسَنٌ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ عَنْ أَبِي النَّضْرِ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّهُ قَالَ أَلَا أُخْبِرُكُمْ بِأَهْلِ النَّارِ وَأَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ؟ أَمَّا أَهْلُ الْجَنَّةِ فَكُلُّ ضَعِيفٍ مُتَضَعِّفٍ أَشْعَثَ ذِي طِمْرَيْنِ لَوْ أَقْسَمَ عَلَى اللهِ لَأَبَرَّهُ وَأَمَّا أَهْلُ النَّارِ فَكُلُّ جَعْظَرِيٍّ جَوَّاظٍ جَمَّاعٍ مَنَّاعٍ ذِي تَبَعٍ

May I not inform you about the inmates of Paradise?
