bukhari:749 – Muḥammad b. Sinān > Fulayḥ > Hilāl b. ʿAlī > Anas b. Mālik

The Prophet ﷺ led us in prayer and then went up to the pulpit and beckoned with both hands towards the Qibla of the mosque and then said, "When I started leading you in prayer, I saw the display of Paradise and Hell on the wall of the mosque (facing the Qibla). I never saw good and bad as I have seen today." He repeated the last statement thrice.  

البخاري:٧٤٩ – حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سِنَانٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا فُلَيْحٌ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا هِلاَلُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ

صَلَّى لَنَا النَّبِيُّ ﷺ ثُمَّ رَقَا الْمِنْبَرَ فَأَشَارَ بِيَدَيْهِ قِبَلَ قِبْلَةِ الْمَسْجِدِ ثُمَّ قَالَ لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ الآنَ مُنْذُ صَلَّيْتُ لَكُمُ الصَّلاَةَ الْجَنَّةَ وَالنَّارَ مُمَثَّلَتَيْنِ فِي قِبْلَةِ هَذَا الْجِدَارِ فَلَمْ أَرَ كَالْيَوْمِ فِي الْخَيْرِ وَالشَّرِّ ثَلاَثًا

Once Messenger of Allah ﷺ led us in prayer and then (after finishing it) ascended the pulpit and pointed with his hand towards the Qibla of the mosque and said, "While I was leading you in prayer, both Paradise and Hell were displayed in front of me in the direction of this wall. I had never seen a better thing (than Paradise) and a worse thing (than Hell) as I have seen today, I had never seen a better thing and a worse thing as I have seen today."  

البخاري:٦٤٦٨ – حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ الْمُنْذِرِ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ فُلَيْحٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي عَنْ هِلاَلِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ؓ قَالَ

سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ صَلَّى لَنَا يَوْمًا الصَّلاَةَ ثُمَّ رَقِيَ الْمِنْبَرَ فَأَشَارَ بِيَدِهِ قِبَلَ قِبْلَةِ الْمَسْجِدِ فَقَالَ قَدْ أُرِيتُ الآنَ مُنْذُ صَلَّيْتُ لَكُمُ الصَّلاَةَ الْجَنَّةَ وَالنَّارَ مُمَثَّلَتَيْنِ فِي قُبُلِ هَذَا الْجِدَارِ فَلَمْ أَرَ كَالْيَوْمِ فِي الْخَيْرِ وَالشَّرِّ فَلَمْ أَرَ كَالْيَوْمِ فِي الْخَيْرِ وَالشَّرِّ

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ prayed for us one day, then he ascended the pulpit and pointed with his hand towards the direction of the Qibla of the mosque. Then he said, "Since I prayed for you, I have seen Paradise and Hell presented in front of me, like these two walls." And I have not seen a day in which there is more good and evil than today." He repeated this statement three times.  

أحمد:١٣٧١٨ – حَدَّثَنَا سُرَيْجُ بْنُ النُّعْمَانِ حَدَّثَنَا فُلَيْحٌ عَنْ هِلَالِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ

صَلَّى النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لَنَا يَوْمًا ثُمَّ رَقِيَ الْمِنْبَرَ فَأَشَارَ بِيَدِهِ قِبَلَ قِبْلَةِ الْمَسْجِدِ ثُمَّ قَالَ قَدْ رَأَيْتُ أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ مُنْذُ صَلَّيْتُ لَكُمُ الصَّلَاةَ الْجَنَّةَ وَالنَّارَ مُمَثَّلَتَيْنِ فِي قِبَلِ هَذَا الْجِدَارِ فَلَمْ أَرَ كَالْيَوْمِ فِي الْخَيْرِ وَالشَّرِّ يَقُولُهَا ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ
