ذِكْرُ الْبَيَانِ بِأَنَّ الْوَاجِبَ عَلَى الْمُسْلِمِ أَنْ يَجْعَلَ لِنَفْسِهِ مَحَجَّتَيْنِ يَرْكَبُهُمَا إِحْدَاهُمَا الرَّجَاءُ، وَالْأُخْرَى الْخَوْفُ
If a believer were to know the punishment (in Hell) none would have the audacity to aspire for Paradise (but he would earnestly desire to be rescued from Hell), and if a non-believer were to know what is there with Allah as a mercy. none would have been disappointed in regard to Paradise. (Using translation from Muslim 2755)
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «لَوْ يَعْلَمُ الْمُؤْمِنُ مَا عِنْدَ اللَّهِ مِنَ الْعُقُوبَةِ مَا طَمِعَ بِجَنَّتِهِ أَحَدٌ وَلَوْ يَعْلَمُ الْكَافِرُ مَا عِنْدَ اللَّهِ مِنَ الرَّحْمَةِ مَا قَنَطَ مِنْ جَنَّتِهِ أَحَدٌ»
