A man asked the Prophet ﷺ about the Hour (i.e. Day of Judgment) saying, "When will the Hour be?" The Prophet ﷺ said, "What have you prepared for it?" The man said, "Nothing, except that I love Allah and His Apostle." The Prophet ﷺ said, "You will be with those whom you love." We had never been so glad as we were on hearing that saying of the Prophet (i.e., "You will be with those whom you love.") Therefore, I love the Prophet, Abu Bakr and ʿUmar, and I hope that I will be with them because of my love for them though my deeds are not similar to theirs.  

أَنَّ رَجُلاً سَأَلَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ عَنِ السَّاعَةِ فَقَالَ مَتَى السَّاعَةُ قَالَ وَمَاذَا أَعْدَدْتَ لَهَا قَالَ لاَ شَىْءَ إِلاَّ أَنِّي أُحِبُّ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ ﷺ فَقَالَ أَنْتَ مَعَ مَنْ أَحْبَبْتَ قَالَ أَنَسٌ فَمَا فَرِحْنَا بِشَىْءٍ فَرَحَنَا بِقَوْلِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنْتَ مَعَ مَنْ أَحْبَبْتَ قَالَ أَنَسٌ فَأَنَا أُحِبُّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ وَأَبَا بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ وَأَرْجُو أَنْ أَكُونَ مَعَهُمْ بِحُبِّي إِيَّاهُمْ وَإِنْ لَمْ أَعْمَلْ بِمِثْلِ أَعْمَالِهِمْ  

" O Messenger of Allah! When will the Hour be established?" So the Propher ﷺ stood to perform Salat and when he was finished his Salat he said: "Where is the one who asked when the hour will be established?" The man said: "It was I, O Mesenger of Allah!" He said: "What have you prepared for it?" He said: "O Messenger of allah! I have not prepared very much of salat nor fasting for it, but I love Allah and His Messenger." So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "A man shall be with whom ever he loves, and you shall be with whomever you love." So after the advent of Islam, I did not see that anything brought the Muslims more happiness than that.  

أَنَّهُ قَالَ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَتَى قِيَامُ السَّاعَةِ فَقَامَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِلَى الصَّلاَةِ فَلَمَّا قَضَى صَلاَتَهُ قَالَ أَيْنَ السَّائِلُ عَنْ قِيَامِ السَّاعَةِ فَقَالَ الرَّجُلُ أَنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ مَا أَعْدَدْتَ لَهَا قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَا أَعْدَدْتُ لَهَا كَبِيرَ صَلاَةٍ وَلاَ صَوْمٍ إِلاَّ أَنِّي أُحِبُّ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ الْمَرْءُ مَعَ مَنْ أَحَبَّ وَأَنْتَ مَعَ مَنْ أَحْبَبْتَ فَمَا رَأَيْتُ فَرِحَ الْمُسْلِمُونَ بَعْدَ الإِسْلاَمِ فَرَحَهُمْ بِهَذَا

So the Propher ﷺ stood to perform Salat and when he was finished his Salat he said: "Where is the one who asked when the hour will be established?" The man said: "It was I, O Mesenger of Allah!" He said: "What have you prepared for it?" He said: "O Messenger of allah! I have not prepared very much of salat nor fasting for it, but I love Allah and His Messenger." So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "A man shall be with whom ever he loves, and you shall be with whomever you love." So after the advent of Islam, I did not see that anything brought the Muslims more happiness than that. (Using translation from Tirmidhī 2385)   

أَنَّ رَجُلًا سَأَلَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ عَنْ قِيَامِ السَّاعَةِ وَأُقِيمَتِ الصَّلَاةُ فَلَمَّا قَضَى صَلَاتَهُ قَالَ أَيْنَ السَّائِلُ عَنِ السَّاعَةِ؟ فَقَالَ الرَّجُلُ هَا أَنَا ذَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَالَ وَمَا أَعْدَدْتَ لَهَا؟ فَإِنَّهَا قَائِمَةٌ قَالَ مَا أَعْدَدْتُ لَهَا مِنْ كَبِيرِ عَمَلٍ غَيْرَ أَنِّي أُحِبُّ اللهَ وَرَسُولَهُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَنْتَ مَعَ مَنْ أَحْبَبْتَ قَالَ فَمَا فَرِحَ الْمُسْلِمُونَ بِشَيْءٍ بَعْدَ الْإِسْلَامِ أَشَدَّ مِمَّا فَرِحُوا بِهِ

[Machine] If a man from the Bedouins pleased us, he would come and ask the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. So, an Bedouin man came and said, "O Messenger of Allah, when will the Hour (Day of Judgment) be?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood up to pray and when he finished the prayer, he said, "Where is the one who was asking about the Hour?" The man stood up and said, "It is me." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked him, "What have you prepared for it?" The man replied, "I have not prepared much prayer or fasting, but I love Allah and His Messenger." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "A person will be with whom he loves." Then the Ansari man said, "I have never seen the Muslims rejoice over anything as they rejoiced over this saying."  

إِنْ كَانَ لَيُعْجِبُنَا الرَّجُلُ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْبَادِيَةِ يَجِيءُ فَيَسْأَلُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ فَجَاءَ أَعْرَابِيٌّ فَقَالَيَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مَتَى السَّاعَةُ؟ قَالَ وَأُقِيمَتِ الصَّلَاةُ فَنَهَضَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَصَلَّى فَلَمَّا قَضَى الصَّلَاةَ قَالَ أَيْنَ السَّائِلُ عَنِ السَّاعَةِ؟ فَقَامَ الرَّجُلُ فَقَالَ أَنَا فَقَالَ وَمَا أَعْدَدْتَ لَهَا؟ قَالَ مَا أَعْدَدْتُ لَهَا مِنْ كَثِيرِ صَلَاةٍ وَلَا صِيَامٍ إِلَّا أَنِّي أُحِبُّ اللهَ وَرَسُولَهُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الْمَرْءُ مَعَ مَنْ أَحَبَّ قَالَ فَمَا رَأَيْتُ الْمُسْلِمِينَ فَرِحُوا بِشَيْءٍ بَعْدَ الْإِسْلَامِ فَرَحَهُمْ بِذَلِكَ وَقَالَ الْأَنْصَارِيُّ مِنْ كَبِيرِ عَمَلٍ صَلَاةٍ وَلَا صَوْمٍ  

[Machine] A man or a Bedouin came to the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ and asked: "O Messenger of Allah, when is the Hour (i.e., the Day of Judgment)?" The Prophet responded: "What have you prepared for it?" The man replied: "I have not prepared much except that I love Allah and His Messenger." The Prophet then said: "You will be with those whom you love." Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "I have never seen the Muslims rejoicing over anything after accepting Islam more than they rejoiced on that day."  

جَاءَ رَجُلٌ أَوْ أَعْرَابِيٌّ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مَتَى السَّاعَةُ؟ قَالَ وَمَا أَعْدَدْتَ لَهَا؟ قَالَ مَا أَعْدَدْتُ لَهَا إِلَّا أَنِّي أُحِبُّ اللهَ وَرَسُولَهُ فَقَالَ أَنْتَ مَعَ مَنْ أَحْبَبْتَ قَالَ أَنَسٌ فَمَا رَأَيْتُ الْمُسْلِمِينَ فَرِحُوا بِشَيْءٍ بَعْدَ الْإِسْلَامِ أَشَدَّ مَا فَرِحُوا يَوْمَئِذٍ

[Machine] A Bedouin asked the Prophet ﷺ a question, and they were more deserving of asking him than anyone else. He said, "O Messenger of Allah, when will the Hour (Day of Judgment) be?" He replied, "What have you prepared for it?" He said, "I have not prepared for it except that I love Allah and His Messenger." The Prophet ﷺ said, "You will be with those whom you love." Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "I have never seen the Muslims rejoicing over anything after Islam more than they rejoiced over his statement."  

أَنَّ أَعْرَابِيًّا سَأَلَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ وَكَانُوا هُمْ أَجْدَرَ أَنْ يَسْأَلُوهُ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَتَى السَّاعَةُ؟ قَالَ «وَمَا أَعْدَدْتَ لَهَا؟ » قَالَ مَا أَعْدَدْتُ لَهَا إِلَّا أَنِّي أُحِبُّ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ قَالَ «فَإِنَّكَ مَعَ مَنْ أَحْبَبْتَ» قَالَ أَنَسٌ فَمَا رَأَيْتُ الْمُسْلِمِينَ فَرِحُوا بِشَيْءٍ بَعْدَ الْإِسْلَامِ أَشَدَّ مِنْ فَرَحِهِمْ بِقَوْلِهِ

[Machine] "O Messenger of Allah, when will the Hour be established? And the prayer has been established, so when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ finished his prayer, he said, 'Where is the one who asked about the Hour?' The man said, 'Here I am, O Messenger of Allah.' He ﷺ said, 'It is coming, so what have you prepared for it?' He replied, 'I have not prepared a great deal, except that I love Allah and His Messenger.' The Prophet ﷺ said, 'You will be with those whom you love.' A man among the Ansar, whose name was Muhammad, was present, and he said, 'If this man lives, he will not see a gray hair until the Hour is established.'"  

يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَتَى تَقُومُ السَّاعَةُ؟ وَأُقِيمَتِ الصَّلَاةُ فَلَمَّا قَضَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ صَلَاتَهُ قَالَ «أَيْنَ السَّائِلُ عَنِ السَّاعَةِ؟ » قَالَ هَا أَنَا ذَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ «إِنَّهَا قَائِمَةٌ فَمَا أَعْدَدْتَ لَهَا؟ » قَالَ مَا أَعْدَدْتُ لَهَا كَبِيرَ عَمَلٍ غَيْرَ أَنِّي أُحِبُّ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ فقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «أَنْتَ مَعَ مَنْ أَحْبَبْتَ» قَالَ وَعِنْدَهُ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ يُقَالُ لَهُ مُحَمَّدٌ فقَالَ «إِنْ يَعِشْ هَذَا فَلَا يُدْرِكُهُ الْهَرَمُ حَتَّى تَقُومَ السَّاعَةُ»
