There was a dispute between the Hell and the Paradise and it (the Hell) said: The haughty and the proud would find abode in me. And the Paradise said: The meek and the humble would find their abode in me. Thereupon Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, (addressing the Hell) said: You are (the means) of My punishment by which I punish those of My servants whom I wish. (And addressing the Paradise) He said: You are only My Mercy by means of which 1 shall show mercy to those whom I wish, but each one of you would be full.  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ احْتَجَّتِ النَّارُ وَالْجَنَّةُ فَقَالَتْ هَذِهِ يَدْخُلُنِي الْجَبَّارُونَ وَالْمُتَكَبِّرُونَ وَقَالَتْ هَذِهِ يَدْخُلُنِي الضُّعَفَاءُ وَالْمَسَاكِينُ فَقَالَ اللَّهُ ﷻ لِهَذِهِ أَنْتِ عَذَابِي أُعَذِّبُ بِكِ مَنْ أَشَاءُ وَرُبَّمَا قَالَ أُصِيبُ بِكِ مَنْ أَشَاءُ وَقَالَ لِهَذِهِ أَنْتِ رَحْمَتِي أَرْحَمُ بِكِ مَنْ أَشَاءُ وَلِكُلِّ وَاحِدَةٍ مِنْكُمَا مِلْؤُهَا  

"Paradise and the Fire debated. Paradise said: 'The weak and the poor shall enter me,' and the Fire said: 'The tyrants and the proud shall enter me.' So He said to the Fire: 'You are My Punishment, I take vengeance through you from whom I will,' and He said to Paradise: 'You are My Mercy I show mercy through you to whom I will.'" (Using translation from Tirmidhī 2561)  

رَسُولُ ﷺ احْتَجَّتِ النَّارُ وَالْجَنَّةُ فَقَالَتِ النَّارُ يَدْخُلُنِي الْجَبَّارُونَ وَالْمُتَكَبِّرُونَ وَقَالَتِالْجَنَّةُ يَدْخُلُنِي الضُّعَفَاءُ وَالْمَسَاكِينُ فَقَالَ اللهُ ﷻ لِلنَّارِ أَنْتِ عَذَابِي أَنْتَقِمُ بِكِ مِمَّنْ شِئْتُ وَقَالَ لِلْجَنَّةِ أَنْتِ رَحْمَتِي أَرْحَمُ بِكِ مَنْ شِئْتُ  

[Machine] "Abdullah and I heard from Uthman, who narrated from Jarir, who narrated from Al-A'mash, who narrated from Abu Salih, who narrated from Abu Sa'id Al-Khudri, that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'Paradise and Hell argued amongst themselves. Hell said, 'I am inhabited by the arrogant and the tyrants.' Paradise said, 'I am inhabited by the weak and the poor among the people.' Then Allah decided between them, saying, 'Indeed, you, Paradise, are My mercy; I will have mercy through you on whomever I will. And you, Hell, are My punishment; I will punish through you whomever I will. And each of you will be filled.'"  

عَبْدُ اللهِ وَسَمِعْتُهُ أَنَا مِنْ عُثْمَانَ حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ احْتَجَّتِ الْجَنَّةُ وَالنَّارُ فَقَالَتِ النَّارُ فِيَّ الْجَبَّارُونَ وَالْمُتَكَبِّرُونَ وَقَالَتِ الْجَنَّةُ فِيَّ ضُعَفَاءُ النَّاسِ وَمَسَاكِينُهُمْ قَالَ فَقَضَى بَيْنَهُمَا إِنَّكِ الْجَنَّةُ رَحْمَتِي أَرْحَمُ بِكِ مَنْ أَشَاءُ وَإِنَّكِ النَّارُ عَذَابِي أُعَذِّبُ بِكِ مَنْ أَشَاءُ وَلِكِلَاكُمَا عَلَيَّ مِلْؤُهَا  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Paradise and Hellfire disputed among themselves. Hellfire said, 'I shall be inhabited by the arrogant, tyrannical, and the nobles.' Paradise said, 'I shall be inhabited by the poor and the needy.' Allah (Glory be to Him) said to Hellfire, 'You are My punishment, and I shall fill you with whoever I will.' And He said to Paradise, 'You are My mercy, and you are spacious enough to accommodate everything. Each one of you will be filled.'"  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «افْتَخَرَتِ الْجَنَّةُ وَالنَّارُ فَقَالَتِ النَّارُ يَدْخُلُنِي الْجَبَّارُونَ وَالْمُلُوكُ وَالْأَشْرَافُ وَقَالَتِ الْجَنَّةُ يَدْخُلُنِي الْفُقَرَاءُ وَالْمَسَاكِينُ فَقَالَ اللَّهُ جَلَّ وَعَلَا لِلنَّارِ أَنْتِ عَذَابِي أُصِيبُ بِكِ مَنْ أَشَاءُ وَقَالَ لِلْجَنَّةِ أَنْتِ رَحْمَتِي وَسِعْتِ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ وَلِكُلِّ وَاحِدَةٍ مِنْكُمَا مِلْؤُهَا»  

[Machine] On the authority of the Prophet, ﷺ , he said, "Paradise and Hell disputed with one another. Hell said, 'I shall be filled with the proud and the tyrants.' Paradise said, 'I shall be filled with the weak and oppressed people.' Allah said to Hell, 'Indeed, you are My punishment, and I will fill you with whomever I wish.' And He said to Paradise, 'Indeed, you are My mercy, and I will fill you with whomever I wish. And each of you shall be filled to the full extent.'"  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «اخْتَصَمَتِ الْجَنَّةُ وَالنَّارُ فَقَالَتِ النَّارُ يَدْخُلُنِي الْجَبَّارُونَ وَالْمُتَكَبِّرُونَ وَقَالَتِ الْجَنَّةُ يَدْخُلُنِي ضُعَفَاءُ النَّاسِ وَأَسْقَاطُهُمْ فَقَالَ اللَّهُ لِلنَّارِ أَنْتِ عَذَابِي أُصِيبُ بِكِ مَنْ أَشَاءُ وَقَالَ لِلْجَنَّةِ أَنْتِ رَحْمَتِي أُصِيبُ بِكِ مَنْ أَشَاءُ وَلِكُلِّ وَاحِدَةٍ مِنْكُمَا مِلْؤُهَا»  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said, "Paradise and Hell argued with each other. Paradise said, 'Why do the weak and poor enter me?' Hell said, 'Why do the arrogant and tyrants enter me?' Allah said, 'You, O Paradise, are My mercy, and I show mercy to whomever I will. And you, O Hell, are My punishment, and I inflict punishment upon whomever I will. And each of you will be filled.'"  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «احْتَجَّتِ الْجَنَّةُ وَالنَّارُ فَقَالَتِ الْجَنَّةُ مَا بَالِي يَدْخُلُنِي الْفُقَرَاءُ وَالضُّعَفَاءُ؟ وَقَالَتِ النَّارُ مَا بَالِي يَدْخُلُنِي الْجَبَّارُونَ وَالْمُتَكَبِّرُونَ؟ فَقَالَ اللَّهُ أَنْتِ رَحْمَتِي أَرْحَمُ بِكِ مَنْ أَشَاءُ وَقَالَ لِلنَّارِ أَنْتِ عَذَابِي أُصِيبُ بِكِ مَنْ أَشَاءُ وَلِكُلِّ وَاحِدَةٍ مِنْهُنَّ مِلْؤُهَا»  

"اختصمت الجنة والنَّارُ إلى ربِّهما، فقالت الجنَّةُ: يا رب ما لى لا يدخُلُنى إلا ضُعَاءُ الناس وسَقَطُهم؟ . وقالت النارُ: ما لى لا يدخُلُنى إلا الجبارونَ والمتكبرونَ؟ فقال للجنةِ أنتِ رحمتى أصيبُ بك من أشاء، وقال للنارِ أنت عذابى أصيب  

"Paradise and the Fire debated. Paradise said: 'The weak and the poor shall enter me,' and the Fire said: 'The tyrants and the proud shall enter me.' So He said to the Fire: 'You are My Punishment, I take vengeance through you from whom I will,' and He said to Paradise: 'You are My Mercy I show mercy through you to whom I will.'" (Using translation from Tirmidhī 2561)   

"احتجت الجنةُ والنارُ، فقالت الجنة: يدخلنى الضعفاءُ والمساكينُ، وقالتُ النارُ: يدخلنى الجبَّارونَ والمتكَبِّرونُ، فقال اللهُ للنارِ: أنتِ عذابى أنتقم بك ممن شئت، وقال للجنة: أنتِ رحمتى أرحمُ بك من شِئْتُ، ولكل واحدةٍ منكما مِلْؤُها".
