Verily the Messenger of Allah said: The last to enter Paradise would be a man who would walk once and stumble once and be burnt by the Fire once. Then when he gets beyond it, he will turn to it and say: Blessed is He Who has saved me from thee. Allah has given me something He has not given to any one of those in earlier or later times. Then a tree would be raised up for him and he will say: O my Lord I bring me near this tree so that I may take shelter in its shade and drink of its water. Allah, the Exalted and Great, would say: O son of Adam, if I grant you this, you will ask Me for something else. He would say: No. my Lord. And he would promise Him that he would not ask for anything else. His Lord would excuse him because He sees what he cannot help desiring; so He would bring him near it, and he would take shelter in its shade and drink of its water. Afterwards a tree more beautiful than the first would be raised up before him and he would say: O my Lord! bring me near this tree in order that I may drink of its water and take shelter in its shade and I shall not ask Thee for anything else. He (Allah) would say: O son of Adam, if I bring you near it you may ask me for something else. He would promise Him that he would not ask for anything else. His Lord will excuse him because He would see something he cannot help desiring. So He would bring him near it and he would enjoy its shade and drink its water. Then a tree would be raised up for him at the gate of the Paradise, more beautiful than the first two. He would say: O my Lord! bring me near this (tree) so that I may enjoy its shade and drink from its water. I shall not ask Thee for anything else. He (Allah) would say: O son of Adam! did you not promise Me that you would not ask Me anything else? He would say: Yes, my Lord, but I shall not ask Thee for anything else. His Lord would excuse him for He sees something the temptation of which he could not resist. He (Allah) would bring him near to it, and when He would bring him near it he would hear the voices of the inhabitants of the Paradise. He would say: O my Lord! admit me to it. He (Allah) would say: O son of Adam, what will bring an end to your requests to Me? Will it please you if I give you the whole world and a like one along with it? He will say: O my Lord! art Thou mocking at me, though Thou art the Lord of the worlds? Ibn Mas'ud laughed and asked (the hearers): Why don't you ask me what I am laughing at. They (then) said: Why do you laugh? He said: It is in this way that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ laughed. They (the companions of the Holy Prophet) asked: Why do you laugh. Messenger of Allah? He said: On account of the laugh of the Lord of the universe, when he ldesirer of Paradise) sai Thou mocking at me though Thou art the Lord of the worlds? He would say: I am not mocking at you, but I have power to do whatever I will.

[Machine] On the authority of the Prophet ﷺ, he said: "Verily, the last person to enter Jannah will be a man walking on the Sirat (bridge to Paradise). He will stumble once and walk once, and the fire will scorch him once. Once he has crossed the Sirat, he will turn towards it and say, 'Blessed is the One who saved me from you. Indeed, Allah has given me what He has not given to anyone from the earlier or later nations.' He will then be shown a tree and he will look at it and say, 'O Lord, get me closer to this tree so that I may get shade from its shade and drink from its water.' Allah will say, 'O My servant, didn't you make a promise not to demand anything other than this tree?' He will say, 'Yes, O Lord,' and he will pledge to Allah not to ask for anything else. However, Allah knows that he will eventually ask for more as he cannot bear the thought of being deprived of it. So, Allah will bring him closer to it and a tree better than it will be elevated for him. He will say, 'O Lord, bring me closer to this tree so that I may take shade under its shade and drink from its water.' Allah will say, 'O My servant, didn't you make a promise not to demand anything other than this tree?' He will say, 'Yes, O Lord,' and he will pledge to Allah not to ask for anything else. Yet, Allah knows that he will eventually ask for more as he cannot bear the thought of being deprived of it. So, Allah will bring him closer to it and a tree will be elevated near the gate of Jannah, it will be better than the previous ones. He will say, 'O Lord, bring me closer to this tree so that I may take shade under its shade and drink from its water.' Allah will say, 'O My servant, didn't you make a promise not to demand anything other than this tree?' He will say, 'Yes, O Lord,' and he will pledge to Allah not to ask for anything else. Yet, Allah knows that he will eventually ask for more as he cannot bear the thought of being deprived of it. So, Allah will bring him closer to it and he will hear the voices of the dwellers of Jannah. He will say, 'O Lord, enter me into Jannah.' Allah will say, 'What can satisfy you, O My servant? Will you be pleased if I give you the entire world and its equivalent along with it?' He will say, 'Are you mocking me, O Lord, while You are the Lord of Honor?' Allah will laugh until His molars will become visible. Then, Allah's Messenger ﷺ recited the verse: 'Ask Me and I will grant you [your request].'" Abdullah said, 'Shouldn't you ask me why I laughed?' They said, 'Why did you laugh, O Messenger of Allah?' He said, 'I laughed at the laugh of the Lord when He said to His servant, 'Are you mocking Me, O My servant, while You are the Lord of Honor?' "

[Machine] On the authority of Abu Sa'id Al-Khudri and Abu Hurayrah, who said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The last person to leave the Hellfire will be a man who will be told by Allah, 'O son of Adam, what did you prepare for this day? Did you do any good or did you hope for My mercy?' He will reply, 'No, O Lord.' So he will be commanded to be taken to the Hellfire, and he will be the most deserving of its inhabitants. Then Allah will say to the other person, 'O son of Adam, what did you prepare for this day? Did you do any good or did you hope for My mercy?' He will reply, 'Yes, O Lord. I sincerely hoped that You would not return me to the Hellfire ever again.' So a tree will be raised for him, and he will say, 'O Lord, enable me to sit in its shade, eat from its fruits, and drink from its water.' He will be promised not to be asked for anything else, and he will be brought closer to it. Then another tree, better than the first one, will be raised for him, and he will have the same request. Finally, a tree will be raised at the gate of Paradise, which is the best of all, and a stream of abundant water will flow from it. He will make the same request as before, and he will hear the voices of the inhabitants of Paradise. He will not be able to contain himself and he will say, 'O Lord, admit me into Paradise.' Allah the Exalted and Glorious will say, 'Ask Me and I shall grant you your request.' So the man will ask and ask until he asks for an amount equivalent to the duration of three days in this worldly life. He will say, 'You will have what you asked for and ten times more with it.' Abu Sa'id Al-Khudri said: "One of them said to his companion: 'Relate to me what you have heard.' And the companion likewise asked his companion to relate to him what he had heard."

عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ وَأَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ آخِرُ مَنْ يَخْرُجُ مِنَ النَّارِ رَجُلَانِ يَقُولُ اللهُ لِأَحَدِهِمَا يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ مَا أَعْدَدْتَ لِهَذَا الْيَوْمِ هَلْ عَمِلْتَ خَيْرًا أَوْ رَجَوْتَنِي؟ فَيَقُولُ لَا يَا رَبِّ فَيُؤْمَرُ بِهِ إِلَى النَّارِ وَهُوَ أَشَدُّ أَهْلِ النَّارِ حَسْرَةً وَيَقُولُ لِلْآخَرِ يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ مَا أَعْدَدْتَ لِهَذَا الْيَوْمِ هَلْ عَمِلْتَ خَيْرًا أَوْ رَجَوْتَنِي؟ فَيَقُولُ نَعَمْ يَا رَبِّ قَدْ كُنْتُ أَرْجُو إِذْ أَخْرَجْتَنِي أَنْ لَا تُعِيدَنِي فِيهَا أَبَدًا فَتُرْفَعُ لَهُ شَجَرَةٌ فَيَقُولُ أَيْ رَبِّأَقِرَّنِي تَحْتَ هَذِهِ الشَّجَرَةِ فَأَسْتَظِلَّ بِظِلِّهَا وَآكُلَ مِنْ ثَمَرِهَا وَأَشْرَبَ مِنْ مَائِهَا فَيُعَاهِدُهُ أَنْ لَا يَسْأَلَهُ غَيْرَهَا فَيُدْنِيهِ مِنْهَا ثُمَّ تُرْفَعُ لَهُ شَجَرَةٌ هِيَ أَحْسَنُ مِنَ الْأُولَى وَأَغْدَقُ مَاءً فَيَقُولُ أَيْ رَبِّ هَذِهِ لَا أَسْأَلُكَ غَيْرَهَا؟ أَقِرَّنِي تَحْتَهَا فَأَسْتَظِلَّ بِظِلِّهَا وَآكُلَ مِنْ ثَمَرِهَا وَأَشْرَبَ مِنْ مَائِهَا فَيَقُولُ يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ أَلَمْ تُعَاهِدْنِي أَنْ لَا تَسْأَلَنِي غَيْرَهَا؟ فَيَقُولُ أَيْ رَبِّ هَذِهِ لَا أَسْأَلُكَ غَيْرَهَا فَيُقِرُّهُ تَحْتَهَا وَيُعَاهِدُهُ أَنْ لَا يَسْأَلَهُ غَيْرَهَا ثُمَّ تُرْفَعُ لَهُ شَجَرَةٌ عِنْدَ بَابِ الْجَنَّةِ هِيَ أَحْسَنُ مِنَ الْأُولَيَيْنِ وَأَغْدَقُ مَاءً فَيَقُولُ أَيْ رَبِّ لَا أَسْأَلُكَ غَيْرَهَا فَأَقِرَّنِي تَحْتَهَا فَأَسْتَظِلَّ بِظِلِّهَا وَآكُلَ مِنْ ثَمَرِهَا وَأَشْرَبَ مِنْ مَائِهَا فَيَقُولُ ابْنَ آدَمَ أَلَمْ تُعَاهِدْنِي أَنْ لَا تَسْأَلَنِي غَيْرَهَا؟ فَيَقُولُ أَيْ رَبِّ هَذِهِ لَا أَسْأَلُكَ غَيْرَهَا فَيُقِرُّهُ تَحْتَهَا وَيُعَاهِدُهُ أَنْ لَا يَسْأَلَهُ غَيْرَهَا فَيَسْمَعُ أَصْوَاتَ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ فَلَا يَتَمَالَكُ فَيَقُولُ أَيْ رَبِّ أَدْخِلْنِي الْجَنَّةَ فَيَقُولُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى سَلْ وَتَمَنَّ فَيَسْأَلُ وَيَتَمَنَّى وَيُلَقِّنُهُ اللهُ مَا لَا عِلْمَ لَهُ بِهِ فَيَسْأَلَ وَيَتَمَنَّى مِقْدَارَ ثَلَاثَةِ أَيَّامٍ مِنْ أَيَّامِ الدُّنْيَا فَيَقُولُ ابْنَ آدَمَ لَكَ مَا سَأَلْتَ قَالَ أَبُو سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيُّ وَمِثْلُهُ مَعَهُ قَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ وَعَشَرَةُ أَمْثَالِهِ مَعَهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ أَحَدُهُمَا لِصَاحِبِهِ حَدِّثْ بِمَا سَمِعْتَوَأُحَدِّثُ بِمَا سَمِعْتُ

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Verily, the last two people to come out of the Fire, Allah will say to one of them, 'O son of Adam, what have you prepared for this Day? Have you done any good deeds?' He will say, 'No, my Lord.' So he will be ordered to be taken to the Fire, for he will be one of the worst inhabitants of the Fire. Then Allah will say to the other person, 'O son of Adam, what have you prepared for this Day? Have you done any good deeds or have you hoped for my mercy?' He will say, 'No, O Lord, except that I hoped for Your mercy.' So a tree will be raised for him, and he will say, 'O Lord, admit me under the shade of this tree, and let me eat from its fruits and drink from its water.' And he will be promised that he will not ask for anything else, but he will be shaded by the tree and eat from its fruits and drink from its water. Then another tree, better than the first, will be raised for him, and he will say, 'O Lord, admit me under the shade of this tree, and let me eat from its fruits and drink from its water.' And he will be promised that he will not ask for anything else, but he will be shaded by the tree and eat from its fruits and drink from its water. Then a tree will be raised for him at the gate of Paradise, and it will be better than the previous two and more abundant in water. He will say, 'O Lord, admit me under the shade of this tree.' So he will be brought near to it and be shaded by it. He will then hear the voices of the people of Paradise, and he will not be able to resist and say, 'O Lord, enter me into Paradise.' Allah will say, 'Ask and you shall be granted.' So he will ask and wish for the equivalent of three days of the world's life, and Allah will teach him what he had no knowledge of before. Then when he finishes his wishes and asks, Allah will say, 'For you is what you have asked for and the like of it.' Abu Sa'id said: 'The same was narrated by his companion, and Abu Hurairah said: 'And ten times more like it was narrated by his companion.' One of them said to his companion, 'Tell me what you heard, and I will tell you what I heard.'"

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ إِنَّ آخِرَ رَجُلَيْنِ يَخْرُجَانِ مِنَ النَّارِ يَقُولُ اللهُ لِأَحَدِهِمَا يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ مَا أَعْدَدْتَ لِهَذَا الْيَوْمِ هَلْ عَمِلْتَ خَيْرًا قَطُّ؟ هَلْ رَجَوْتَنِي؟ فَيَقُولُ لَا أَيْ رَبِّ فَيُؤْمَرُ بِهِ إِلَى النَّارِ فَهُوَ أَشَدُّ أَهْلِ النَّارِ حَسْرَةً وَيَقُولُ لِلْآخَرِ يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ مَاذَا أَعْدَدْتَ لِهَذَا الْيَوْمِ؟ هَلْ عَمِلْتَ خَيْرًا قَطُّ؟ أَوْ رَجَوْتَنِي؟ فَيَقُولُ لَا يَا رَبِّ إِلَّا أَنِّي كُنْتُ أَرْجُوكَ قَالَ فَيَرْفَعُ لَهُ شَجَرَةً فَيَقُولُ أَيْ رَبِّ أَقِرَّنِي تَحْتَ هَذِهِ الشَّجَرَةِ فَأَسْتَظِلَّ بِظِلِّهَا وَآكُلَ مِنْ ثَمَرِهَا وَأَشْرَبَ مِنْ مَائِهَا وَيُعَاهِدُهُ أَنْ لَا يَسْأَلَهُ غَيْرَهَا فَيُقِرُّهُ تَحْتَهَا ثُمَّ تُرْفَعُ لَهُ شَجَرَةٌ هِيَ أَحْسَنُ مِنَ الْأُولَى وَأَغْدَقُ مَاءً فَيَقُولُ أَيْ رَبِّ أَقِرَّنِي تَحْتَهَا لَا أَسْأَلُكَ غَيْرَهَا فَأَسْتَظِلَّ بِظِلِّهَا وَآكُلَ مِنْ ثَمَرِهَا وَأَشْرَبَ مِنْ مَائِهَا فَيَقُولُ يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ أَلَمْ تُعَاهِدْنِي أَنْ لَا تَسْأَلَنِي غَيْرَهَا؟ فَيَقُولُ أَيْ رَبِّ هَذِهِ لَا أَسْأَلُكَ غَيْرَهَا وَيُعَاهِدُهُ أَنْ لَا يَسْأَلَهُغَيْرَهَا فَيُقِرُّهُ تَحْتَهَا ثُمَّ تُرْفَعُ لَهُ شَجَرَةٌ عِنْدَ بَابِ الْجَنَّةِ هِيَ أَحْسَنُ مِنَ الْأَوَّلَتَيْنِ وَأَغْدَقُ مَاءً فَيَقُولُ أَيْ رَبِّ هَذِهِ أَقِرَّنِي تَحْتَهَا فَيُدْنِيَهُ مِنْهَا وَيُعَاهِدُهُ أَنْ لَا يَسْأَلَهُ غَيْرَهَا فَيَسْمَعُ أَصْوَاتَ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ فَلَا يَتَمَالَكْ فَيَقُولُ أَيْ رَبِّ الْجَنَّةَ أَيْ رَبِّ أَدْخِلْنِي الْجَنَّةَ فَيَقُولُ اللهُ ﷻ سَلْ وَتَمَنَّهْ فَيَسْأَلَهُ وَيَتَمَنَّى مِقْدَارَ ثَلَاثَةِ أَيَّامٍ مِنْ أَيَّامِ الدُّنْيَا وَيُلَقِّنُهُ اللهُ مَا لَا عِلْمَ لَهُ بِهِ فَيَسْأَلُ وَيَتَمَنَّى فَإِذَا فَرَغَ قَالَ لَكَ مَا سَأَلْتَ قَالَ أَبُو سَعِيدٍ وَمِثْلُهُ مَعَهُ وَقَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ وَعَشَرَةُ أَمْثَالِهِ مَعَهُ قَالَ أَحَدُهُمَا لِصَاحِبِهِ حَدِّثْ بِمَا سَمِعْتَ وَأُحَدِّثُ بِمَا سَمِعْتُ

[Machine] On the authority of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ who said: "The last person to enter Paradise will be a man walking on the Sirat (bridge to Paradise). He will stumble once and the fire will scorch him. Every time he passes by it, he will turn to it and say, 'Blessed is the One who saved me from you. By Allah, no one has been given anything like what I have been given among all the worlds.’ Then, a tree will be raised for him, and he will say, 'O Lord, draw me closer to it so that I may take shelter in its shade and drink from its water.’ Allah will say, 'O son of Adam, if I give you that, you will ask Me for something else.’ But the man will swear that he will not ask for anything else, even though he knows that he will. Then, Allah will bring him close to it, and he will take shelter in its shade and drink from its water. Then, another tree will be raised for him, which is even better than the first. He will say, 'O Lord, draw me closer to it so that I may take shelter in its shade and drink from its water.’ Allah will say, 'O son of Adam, if I give you that, you will ask Me for something else.’ But the man will swear that he will not ask for anything else, even though he knows that he will. Then, Allah will bring him close to it, and he will take shelter in its shade and drink from its water. Then, a third tree will be raised for him at the gate of Paradise, which is even better than the first two. He will say, 'O Lord, draw me closer to it so that I may take shelter in its shade and drink from its water.’ Allah will say, 'O son of Adam, if I give you that, you will ask Me for something else.’ But the man will swear that he will not ask for anything else, even though he knows that he will. Then, Allah will bring him close to it, and he will hear the voices of the people of Paradise. He will say, 'O Lord, admit me to Paradise.’ Allah will say, 'O son of Adam, what will make you content with Me and My favor? Would it please you if I give you the entire world and as much again?’ The man will reply, 'Are You making fun of me while You are the Lord of all creation?’ I said, 'Would you not like Me to give you that and as much again?’ The man will say, 'O Lord, I am not making fun of You, but I am asking You for something else.’ The Prophet ﷺ then smiled so broadly that his molars could be seen and he said, 'Do you not wonder at what made me laugh? They asked, 'O Prophet of Allah! What made you laugh?’ He said, 'I laughed because the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said the same as I have said (i.e., the man said the same as I said when he entered Paradise).' "

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "The last person to enter Paradise will walk on the bridge and will walk one step and then kneel. The fire will surround him, and when he surpasses it, he will turn towards it and say, 'Blessed is He who saved me from you. He has given me something that He has not given to anyone among the earlier and later people.' A tree will be raised for him, and he will say, 'O Lord, bring me closer to this tree so that I may take shade under its shade and drink from its water.' Allah will say, 'O son of Adam, did you not make a covenant with Me that you would not ask Me for anything other than this?' He will say, 'Yes, my Lord, but I will not ask You for anything other than this.' Allah will excuse him because He will see something that he cannot bear, and he will say, 'O Lord, bring me closer to it so that I may take shade under its shade and drink from its water.' Then a tree will be raised for him at the gate of Paradise, which is better than the first one. He will say, 'O Lord, bring me closer to this tree so that I may take shade under its shade and drink from its water.' Allah will say, 'O son of Adam, did you not make a covenant with Me that you would not ask Me for anything other than this?' He will say, 'Yes, my Lord, but I will not ask You for anything other than this.' Allah will excuse him because He will see something that he cannot bear, and He will bring him closer to it. He will then hear the voices of the people of Paradise, and he will say, 'O Lord, admit me to it.' Allah will say, 'O son of Adam, would it please you if I were to give you the entire world and a similar world along with it?' He will say, 'Are You making fun of me, though You are the Lord of all the worlds?' The Messenger of Allah laughed and then said, 'Do you not ask me why I laughed?' The person asked, 'Why did you laugh, O Messenger of Allah?' He said, 'I laughed at the laughter of the Lord of the worlds when He said, 'Do you make fun of Me, though You are the Lord of all the worlds?' He said, 'No, I am not making fun of you, but I can do whatever I will.'"

"آخِرُ منْ يخَرجُ منَ النارِ رجلانِ، يقولُ اللهُ ﷻ لأحدِهما: يا ابنَ آدمَ. ما أعددت لهذا اليومِ؟ هل عملتَ خيرًا قطُّ؟ هل رَجَوْتنِى؟ فيقولُ: لا يَا ربَّ فيُؤْمَرُ به إلى النارِ، فهو أشدُّ أهلِ النارِ حسرةً ويقول لِلآخرِ: يا ابْنَ آدمَ. ما أعددتَ لهذا اليوم؟ هل عمِلتَ خيرًا قطُّ ورَجوتَنى؟ فيقولُ: لا يا ربِّ إلَّا أَنَّى كُنتُ أرجوك، فَتُرْفَعُ له شجرةٌ فيقولُ: أىْ ربِّ قَرِّنِى تحتَ هذه الشَّجرةِ فأستظلَّ بظلِّها وآكلَ من ثمرِها وأشربَ من مائِها، ويُعاهدُه أن لا يسألَه غيرَ هذا، فيقرُّهُ تحتَها. ثم ترفعُ له شجرةٌ أحسنُ من الأولى وأغدقُ ماءً، فيقولُ: أي رب أقرنى تحتها لا أسألك غيرها فأستظل بظلها، وأشرب من مائها، فيقول: يا ابن آدم ألم تعاهدنى أن لا تسألنى غيرها؟ فيقول: أى رب هذه لا أسألك غيرها فيقره تحتها، ثم ترفع له شجرة عندَ بابِ الجنَّةِ هى أحسنُ من الأُولَيَيْنِ وأغدقُ ماءً، فيقولُ: أىْ ربِّ هذَّه، قَرنى تحتها فيدنيه منها، ويعاهدُه، أن لا يسألَه غيرَها، فيسمعُ أصواتَ أهل الجنةِ فلا يَتَمَالكُ. فيقولُ أىْ ربَّ أدخلنى الجنةَ، فيقولُ الله ﷻ: سَلْ وتَمنَّ؛ فيسألُ ويتمنَّى مقدارَ ثَلاثةِ أيامٍ من أيام الدنيا، ويُلَقَّنُه اللهُ ما لا عِلمَ له به، فيسألُ ويتمنَّىَ، فإذا فَرغ قال: لك ما سألتَ ومثله معَهَ".

وقال أبو هريرة: "وعشرةُ أمثالِه".

Verily the Messenger of Allah said: The last to enter Paradise would be a man who would walk once and stumble once and be burnt by the Fire once. Then when he gets beyond it, he will turn to it and say: Blessed is He Who has saved me from thee. Allah has given me something He has not given to any one of those in earlier or later times. Then a tree would be raised up for him and he will say: O my Lord I bring me near this tree so that I may take shelter in its shade and drink of its water. Allah, the Exalted and Great, would say: O son of Adam, if I grant you this, you will ask Me for something else. He would say: No. my Lord. And he would promise Him that he would not ask for anything else. His Lord would excuse him because He sees what he cannot help desiring; so He would bring him near it, and he would take shelter in its shade and drink of its water. Afterwards a tree more beautiful than the first would be raised up before him and he would say: O my Lord! bring me near this tree in order that I may drink of its water and take shelter in its shade and I shall not ask Thee for anything else. He (Allah) would say: O son of Adam, if I bring you near it you may ask me for something else. He would promise Him that he would not ask for anything else. His Lord will excuse him because He would see something he cannot help desiring. So He would bring him near it and he would enjoy its shade and drink its water. Then a tree would be raised up for him at the gate of the Paradise, more beautiful than the first two. He would say: O my Lord! bring me near this (tree) so that I may enjoy its shade and drink from its water. I shall not ask Thee for anything else. He (Allah) would say: O son of Adam! did you not promise Me that you would not ask Me anything else? He would say: Yes, my Lord, but I shall not ask Thee for anything else. His Lord would excuse him for He sees something the temptation of which he could not resist. He (Allah) would bring him near to it, and when He would bring him near it he would hear the voices of the inhabitants of the Paradise. He would say: O my Lord! admit me to it. He (Allah) would say: O son of Adam, what will bring an end to your requests to Me? Will it please you if I give you the whole world and a like one along with it? He will say: O my Lord! art Thou mocking at me, though Thou art the Lord of the worlds? Ibn Mas'ud laughed and asked (the hearers): Why don't you ask me what I am laughing at. They (then) said: Why do you laugh? He said: It is in this way that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ laughed. They (the companions of the Holy Prophet) asked: Why do you laugh. Messenger of Allah? He said: On account of the laugh of the Lord of the universe, when he ldesirer of Paradise) sai Thou mocking at me though Thou art the Lord of the worlds? He would say: I am not mocking at you, but I have power to do whatever I will. (Using translation from Muslim 187)

"آخِرُ مَن يدخلُ الجنةَ رجلٌ يمشى على الصِّراطِ فهو يمشى مرَّةً ويكبُو مرَّةً، وتَسْفَعُهُ النار مرَّةً، فإذا جاوزَها الْتفتَ إليها؛ فقال: تبارَك الذى نجَّانى منك: لقد أعطانى اللهُ شيئًا ما أعطاه أحدًا منَ الأوَّلينَ والآخرينَ، فتُرفعُ له شجرةٌ فيقولُ: أىْ ربّ أَدْنِنى منْ هذه الشجرةِ فَلأَسْتظِلَّ بِظِلَّها وأشربَ من مائها؟ فيقولُ الله: يا ابنَ آدمَ، لَعَلِّى إن أَعْطَيْتُكَهَا سأَلْتَنِى غيرَها؛ فيقولُ: لا يا ربَّ ويُعاهدُه أنْ لا يسألَهُ غيرَها، وربُّه يَعْذِرُهُ؛ لأنه يرى ما لا صبرَ لهُ عليه، فَيُدْنِيه منها، فيستظلُّ بظِلِّها ويشربُ من مائها، ثم تُرفعُ لَه شجرةٌ أخرى هى أحسنُ منَ الأولى، فيقولُ، أىْ ربِّ: أدْنِنِى منْ هذهَ لأِشْربَ من مائِها، وأستظلَّ بظلها، لا أسألُك غيرَها، فيقولُ: يا ابن آدمَ، أَلَم تعاهدْنى أن لا تسأَلنى غيرَها؟ (فيقول) لعلى إنْ أدْنيتك منها تسألُنى غيرَها فيعاهدُه أَنْ لا يسألَه غيرَها، وربُّه يَعْذِرُهُ؛ لأنَّه يرى ما لا صَبْرَ لهُ عليهِ؛ فَيُدْنِيهِ منها فَيَسْتَظلُّ بِظلها، وَيَشربُ من مَائِها ثم ترفعُ لُه شجرةٌ عنْدَ بَابِ الجنَّة هِى أحَسنُ منَ الأُولَيَيْنِ فيقولُ: أىْ ربِّ أدْنِنِى مِنْ هذِه فَلأَسْتَظِلَّ بِظَّلِها وأَشْرَبَ مِنْ مائِها لَا أسْأَلُك غيرَها فيقولُ: يا ابن آدمَ ألَمْ تُعَاهِدْنى أنْ لا تسألَنى غيرَها؟ قال: بلى يا رب. أدنِنىِ من هذه لا أسألُك غيرَها، وربُّه يَعْذِرُه؛ لأنه يرى ما لا صبرَ له عليهِ، فَيُدْنيه منها فإِذا أَدْناه منها سَمِعَ أصواتَ أهلِ الجنَّةِ فيقولُ: أى ربَّ أدْخِلْنِيها، فيقولُ: يا ابنَ آدمَ ما يَصْرِينىِ منكَ؟ أيُرْضيكَ أن أُعْطِيَكَ الدُّنْيَا ومِثْلَهَا مَعَهَا فيقولُ: أىْ ربَّ أتستهزئُّ مِنَّى وأنتَ ربُّ العالمين؟ فيقولُ: إنِّى لاَ أسْتَهِزْئُ منك وَلَكنَّى على مَا أشَاءُ قَادِرٌ".
