ذِكْرُ الْبَيَانِ بِأَنَّ الْعَبْدَ قَدْ يَكُونُ لَهُ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ الْمَنَازِلُ فِي الْجِنَّانِ فَلَا يَبْلُغُهَا إِلَّا بِالْمِحَنِ وَالْبَلَايَا فِي الدُّنْيَا

ابن حبّان:٢٩٠٨ – أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْمُثَنَّى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلَاءِ بْنِ كُرَيْبٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يُونُسُ بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَيُّوبَ هُوَ الْبَجَلِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو زُرْعَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «إِنَّ الرَّجُلَ لِتَكُونَ لَهُ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ الْمَنْزِلَةُ فَمَا يَبْلُغُهَا بِعَمَلٍ فَلَا يَزَالُ اللَّهُ يَبْتَلِيهِ بِمَا يَكْرَهُ حَتَّى يُبَلِّغَهُ إِيَّاهَا»
