" O ye who believe I raise not your voices above the voice of the Prophet, nor shout loud unto him in discourse, as ye shout loud unto one another, lest your deeds should become null and void, while you perceive not" (xlix. 2-5), was revealed. Thabit b. Qais confined himself in his house and said: I am one of the denizens of Fire, and he deliberately avoided coming to the Apostle ﷺ. The Apostle ﷺ asked Sa'd b, Mu'adh about him and said, Abu Amr, how is Thabit? Has he fallen sick? Sa'd said: He is my neighbour, but I do not know of his illness. Sa'd came to him (Thabit), and conveyed to him the message of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. Upon this Thabit said: This verse was revealed, and you are well aware of the fact that, amongst all of you, mine is the voice louder than that of the Messenger of Allah, and so I am one amongst the denizens of Fire, Sa'd Informed the Prophet about it. Upon this the Messenger of Allah observed: (Nay, not so) but he (Thabit) is one of the dwellers of Paradise.  

أَنَّهُ قَالَ لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الآيَةُ { يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لاَ تَرْفَعُوا أَصْوَاتَكُمْ فَوْقَ صَوْتِ النَّبِيِّ} إِلَى آخِرِ الآيَةِ جَلَسَ ثَابِتُ بْنُ قَيْسٍ فِي بَيْتِهِ وَقَالَ أَنَا مِنْ أَهْلِ النَّارِ وَاحْتَبَسَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَسَأَلَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ سَعْدَ بْنَ مُعَاذٍ فَقَالَ يَا أَبَا عَمْرٍو مَا شَأْنُ ثَابِتٍ أَشْتَكَى قَالَ سَعْدٌ إِنَّهُ لَجَارِي وَمَا عَلِمْتُ لَهُ بِشَكْوَى قَالَ فَأَتَاهُ سَعْدٌ فَذَكَرَ لَهُ قَوْلَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ ثَابِتٌ أُنْزِلَتْ هَذِهِ الآيَةُ وَلَقَدْ عَلِمْتُمْ أَنِّي مِنْ أَرْفَعِكُمْ صَوْتًا عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَأَنَا مِنْ أَهْلِ النَّارِ فَذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ سَعْدٌ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بَلْ هُوَ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ  

[Machine] "When {O you who have believed, do not raise your voices above the voice of the Prophet} [Al-Hujurat 2]. Qa'dathabith bin Qais was sitting in his house when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ missed him. He said to Saad ibn Mu'adh, 'O Abu Amr, what is the matter with Thabit bin Qais? Why is he not seen? Is he sick?' He said, 'I do not know if he is ill, but I know that he has a neighbor.' Saad went to him and mentioned the statement of the Prophet ﷺ to him. He said, 'I already knew that I was one of the loudest of you in raising my voice above the voice of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. This verse was revealed, and I have been destroyed from the people of Hellfire.' Saad mentioned this to the Prophet ﷺ, who said, 'No, he is one of the people of Paradise.'"
