ذِكْرُ رَجَاءِ دُخُولِ الْجِنَانِ لِمَنْ سَقَى ذَوَاتَ الْأَرْبَعِ إِذَا كَانَتْ عَطْشَى

[Machine] From the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, he said, "A man approached a well, descended, and drank from it. There was a dog by the well panting with thirst, so the man felt compassion for it. He then took off his shoe, tied it to his garment, and filled it with water. He gave the dog a drink, and as a result, Allah appreciated his act of kindness and admitted him into Paradise."  

ابن حبّان:٥٤٣أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ دَاوُدَ بْنِ وَرْدَانَ بِالْفُسْطَاطِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عِيسَى بْنُ حَمَّادٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ عَنِ ابْنِ عَجْلَانَ عَنِ الْقَعْقَاعِ بْنِ حَكِيمٍ وَزَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ

عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «دَنَا رَجُلٌ إِلَى بِئْرٍ فَنَزَلَ فَشَرِبَ مِنْهَا وَعَلَى الْبِئْرِ كَلْبٌ يَلْهَثُ فَرَحِمَهُ فَنَزَعَ إِحْدَى خُفَّيْهِ فَغَرَفَ لَهُ فَسَقَاهُ فَشَكَرَ اللَّهُ لَهُ فَأَدْخَلَهُ الْجَنَّةَ»
