[Machine] The companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to say, "Verily, Allah benefits us through the Arabs and their issues." An Arab Bedouin came forward one day and said, "O Messenger of Allah, indeed Allah mentions in the Quran a harmful tree, and I did not think that in Paradise there would be a tree that harms its owner." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked, "And what is it?" The Bedouin replied, "Al-Sidr (the lote tree), for it has thorns." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "{In a position which is neither ascendant nor descending} [Al-Waqi'ah 28]. Allah takes away its thorns and turns every thorn into a fruit. And indeed, it grows fruit that ripens with seventy-two different colors, and there is no color like the other." This hadith has a correct chain of narrators, but it has not been documented in a book.
كَانَ أَصْحَابُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُونَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ يَنْفَعُنَا بِالْأَعْرَابِ وَمَسَائِلِهِمْ أَقْبَلَ أَعْرَابِيٌّ يَوْمًا فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ لَقَدْ ذَكَرَ اللَّهُ فِي الْقُرْآنِ شَجَرَةً مُؤْذِيَةً وَمَا كُنْتُ أَرَى أَنَّ فِي الْجَنَّةِ شَجَرَةٌ تُؤْذِي صَاحِبَهَا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «وَمَا هِيَ؟» قَالَ السِّدْرُ فَإِنَّ لَهَا شَوْكًا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ {فِي سِدْرٍ مَخْضُودٍ} [الواقعة 28] يَخْضِدُ اللَّهُ شَوْكَهُ فَيُجْعَلُ مَكَانَ كُلِّ شَوْكَةٍ ثَمَرَةٌ فَإِنَّهَا تُنْبِتُ ثَمَرًا تُفْتَقُ الثَّمَرَةُ مَعَهَا عَنِ اثْنَيْنِ وَسَبْعِينَ لَوْنًا مَا مِنْهَا لَوْنٌ يُشْبِهُ الْآخَرَ «صَحِيحُ الْإِسْنَادِ وَلَمْ يُخَرِّجَاهُ» صحيح
