It was narrated that Al-Mughirah bin Shu'bah told the people from the Minbar - (one of the narrators) Sufyan said: "One of them, I think it was Ibn Abjar, attributed it to the Prophet (s.a.w)" - "Musa, asked his Lord: 'Who will be the lowest of the people of Paradise in status?' He said: 'He will be a man who will come after I have admitted the people of Paradise to Paradise, and it will be said to him: "Enter Paradise.'' He will say: "O Lord, how, when the people have taken their places and have taken what they have taken?" It will be said to him: "Would it please you if you had the like of what one of the kings of the world had?" He will say: "I would be pleased, O Lord.'' He will say: "You will have that, and as much again, and as much again, and as much again, and as much again." The fifth time, he will say: "I am pleased, O Lord." He will say: "You will have that and ten times as much, and you will have what your heart desires, and what will delight your eyes." He will say: "I am pleased, O Lord.'" (Musa) said: 'My Lord! Who will be the highest of them in status?' He said: 'They will be the ones whom I have chosen, and I have planted their honor with My Own Hand. I have set a seal over it so that no eye has seen, no ear has heard, nor has it entered the heart of man.' " He said: "And the confirmation thereof is in the Book of Allah, the Mighty and Sublime: "No person knows what is kept hidden for them of joy as a reward for what they used to do."

It was narrated that Abu Dharr said: "The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said: 'I know the last of the people of Paradise to enter Paradise, and the last of the people of Hell to be brought forth from it. (It will be) a man who will be brought forth on the Day of Resurrection, and it will be said: 'Show him his minor sins, and conceal from him his major sins.' So his minor sins will be shown to him, and it will be said: 'You did such-and-such on such-and-such a day, you did such-and-such on such-and-such a day.' He will say: 'Yes.' And he will not be able to deny it. And at the same time, he will be afraid that his major sins will be shown to him. Then it will be said to him: 'In place of every bad deed, you will have a good deed.' He will say: 'O Lord! I did things that I do not see here."' And I saw the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) laughing until his molars were visible."

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ نُمَيْرٍ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ عَنْ الْمَعْرُورِ بْنِ سُوَيْدٍ عَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِنِّي لَأَعْلَمُ آخِرَ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ دُخُولًا الْجَنَّةَ وَآخِرَ أَهْلِ النَّارِ خُرُوجًا مِنْهَا رَجُلٌ يُؤْتَى بِهِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ فَيُقَالُ اعْرِضُوا عَلَيْهِ صِغَارَ ذُنُوبِهِ وَارْفَعُوا عَنْهُ كِبَارَهَا فَتُعْرَضُ عَلَيْهِ صِغَارُ ذُنُوبِهِ فَيُقَالُ عَمِلْتَ يَوْمَ كَذَا وَكَذَا كَذَا وَكَذَا وَعَمِلْتَ يَوْمَ كَذَا وَكَذَا، كَذَا وَكَذَا فَيَقُولُ نَعَمْ لَا يَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ يُنْكِرَ وَهُوَ مُشْفِقٌ مِنْ كِبَارِ ذُنُوبِهِ أَنْ تُعْرَضَ عَلَيْهِ فَيُقَالُ لَهُ فَإِنَّ لَكَ مَكَانَ كُلِّ سَيِّئَةٍ حَسَنَةً فَيَقُولُ رَبِّ قَدْ عَمِلْتُ أَشْيَاءَ لَا أَرَاهَا هَا هُنَا. فَلَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ضَحِكَ حَتَّى بَدَتْ نَوَاجِذُهُ.

Abu Az-Zubair narrated that he heard Jabir bin 'Abdullah being asked about the arrival of people on the Day of Resurrection. He said: "We will come on the Day of Resurrection from such-and-such" - look - that is, above the people. He said: "The nations will be called with their idols and what they used to worship, one after another. Then our Lord will come to us after that and will say: 'Who are you waiting for?' They will say: 'We are waiting for our Lord.' He will say: 'I am your Lord.' They will say: 'Not until we look upon you.' He will manifest Himself to them, laughing. Then He will set off with them and they will follow Him, and each one of them - hypocrite or believer - will be given a light, then they will follow Him on a Bridge over Hell there will be hooks and spikes, which will catch whomever Allah wills. Then the light of the hypocrites will be extinguished and the believers will be saved. The first group will be saved with their faces (shining) like the moon when it is full, seventy thousand who will not be brought to account. Then those who follow them will be like the light of the stars in the sky, and so on. Then intercession will be permitted, and they will intercede until they bring out of the Fire everyone who said 'La ilaha illallah' and has in his heart goodness the weight of a grain of barley. They will be placed in the courtyard of Paradise, and the people of Paradise will start to sprinkle water on them until they sprout like something spouts from a flood, and their burns will disappear. Then he will ask, until he is given this world and ten times the like thereof."

It was narrated from 'Amr that he heard Jabir say that he heard the Prophet (s.a.w) with his own ears saying: "Allah will bring some people out of the Fire and admit them to Paradise."

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ عَنْ عَمْرٍو سَمِعَ جَابِرًا يَقُولُ سَمِعَهُ مِنْ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِأُذُنِهِ يَقُولُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ يُخْرِجُ نَاسًا مِنْ النَّارِ فَيُدْخِلَهُمْ الْجَنَّةَ.

Hammad bin Zaid said: "I said to 'Amr bin Dinar: 'Did you hear Jabir bin 'Abdullah narrate from the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w): "Allah will bring some people out of the Fire through intercession"?' He said: 'Yes."'

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الرَّبِيعِ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ قَالَ قُلْتُ لِعَمْرِو بْنِ دِينَارٍ أَسَمِعْتَ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ يُخْرِجُ قَوْمًا مِنْ النَّارِ بِالشَّفَاعَةِ قَالَ نَعَمْ

Jabir bin 'Abdullah said: "The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said: 'Some people will come out of the Fire, having been burned totally except the fronts of their faces, and they will enter Paradise."'

حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجُ بْنُ الشَّاعِرِ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أَحْمَدَ الزُّبَيْرِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا قَيْسُ بْنُ سُلَيْمٍ الْعَنْبَرِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي يَزِيدُ الْفَقِيرُ حَدَّثَنَا جَابِرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِنَّ قَوْمًا يُخْرَجُونَ مِنْ النَّارِ يَحْتَرِقُونَ فِيهَا إِلَّا دَارَاتِ وُجُوهِهِمْ حَتَّى يَدْخُلُونَ الْجَنَّةَ

Yazid Al-Faqir said: "I was infatuated with the views of the Khawarij. We set out with a large group, intending to perform Hajj, and then go and promote the views of the Khawarij to the people. We passed through Al-Madinah, and there we saw Jabir bin 'Abdullah narrating to the people from the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w), sitting by a pillar, and he mentioned the Jahannamiyyin. I said to him: 'O Companion of the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w)! What is this that you are narrating, when Allah says: "Verily, whom You admit to the Fire, indeed, You have disgraced him... and: "Every time they wish to get away there from, they will be put back thereto..."? "What is this that you are saying?' He said: 'Do you read the Qur'an?' I said: 'Yes.' He said: 'Have you heard of the station of Muhammad (s.a.w) - meaning, to which Allah will raise him?' I said: 'Yes.' He said: 'That is the station of praise and glory belonging to Muhammad (s.a.w), by means of which Allah will bring out whomever He wishes to bring out (from the Fire).' Then he described how the Sirat (the Bridge over Hell) will be set up, and the people will cross over it." He said: "I am afraid that I did not memorize that. But he said that some people would be brought forth from the Fire after having been in it. They will come out as if they are branches of sesame. Then they will go into one of the rivers of Paradise, where they will wash themselves, then they will emerge (white and clean) like sheets of paper. We went back like and said: 'Woe to you people! Do you think that this old man would tell lies about the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w)?' So we returned, and by Allah none of us went out (to promote the views of the Khawarij) apart from one man." - Or as Abu Nu'aim said.

It was narrated from Anas bin Malik that the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said: "Four people will be brought out of the Fire and presented to Allah, the Most High. One of them will tum and say: 'O Lord, as You have brought me out of it, do not send me back,' and Allah will save him from it."

حَدَّثَنَا هَدَّابُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ الْأَزْدِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ أَبِي عِمْرَانَ وَثَابِتٍ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ يَخْرُجُ مِنْ النَّارِ أَرْبَعَةٌ فَيُعْرَضُونَ عَلَى اللَّهِ فَيَلْتَفِتُ أَحَدُهُمْ فَيَقُولُ أَيْ رَبِّ إِذْ أَخْرَجْتَنِي مِنْهَا فَلَا تُعِدْنِي فِيهَا فَيُنْجِيهِ اللَّهُ مِنْهَا.

It was narrated that Anas bin Malik said: "The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said: 'Allah, the Most High, will gather the people on the Day of Resurrection and they will be worried about that"' - (one of the narrators) Ibn 'Ubaid said: "They will be inspired concerning that" - "'and they will say: "Why don't we seek intercession with our Lord, the Mighty and Sublime, so that we might be relieved of our predicament?" They will go to Adam - and will say: 'You are Adam, the father of mankind. Allah created you with His Own Hand and breathed into you a spirit from Him, and He commanded the angels to prostrate to you. Intercede for us with our Lord so that we might be relieved of the predicament we are in.' He will say: 'I am not capable of that.' He will mention the mistake that he made, and he will feel shy before his Lord because of it. ' But go to Nuh, the first Messenger whom Allah, the Most High, sent.' So they will go to Nuh, and he will say: 'I am not capable of that.' And he will mention the mistake that he made, and he will feel shy before his Lord because of it. 'But go to Ibrahim, whom Allah took as Khalil (a close friend) ." "So they will go to Ibrahim, and he will say: 'I am not capable of that.' And he will mention the mistake that he made, and he will feel shy before his Lord because of it. 'But go to Musa to whom Allah spoke and gave the Tawrah.' So they will go to Musa, and he will say: 'I am not capable of that.' And he will mention the mistake that he made, and he will feel shy before his Lord because of it. 'But go to 'Eisa, a spirit from Allah and His Word.' So they will go to 'Eisa, a spirit from Allah and His Word, and he will say, 'I am not capable of that, but go to Muhammad, a slave whose past and future sins were forgiven."' An as bin Malik said: "The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said: 'So they will come to me, and I will ask for permission to speak to my Lord, the Most High, and permission will be given to me. When I see Him, I will fall down in prostration and He will leave me (in that state of prostration) for as long as Allah wills. Then it will be said: 'O Muhammad, raise your head. Speak, you will be heard; ask, you will be given; intercede, your intercession will be accepted.' So I will raise my head and will praise my Lord, the Most High, with words of praise that my Lord, the Mighty and Sublime, will teach me. Then I will intercede, and a limit will be set for me. I will bring them out of the Fire and admit them to Paradise. Then I will go back and fall prostrate, and He will leave me (in that state of prostration) for as long as Allah wills. Then it will be said: 'O Muhammad, raise your head. Speak, you will be heard; ask, you will be given; intercede, your intercession will be accepted.' So I will raise my head and will praise my Lord with words of praise that my Lord will teach me. Then I will intercede, and a limit will be set for me. I will bring them out of Hell and admit them to Paradise.'" - Anas bin Malik said: "I do not know whether it was the third time or the fourth time" - "Then I will say: 'O Lord, there is no one left in the Fire but those who have been detained by the Qur'an,"' that is, those who are bound to abide therein forever. Ibn 'Ubaid said in his narration: "Qatadah said: 'That is, those who are bound to abide therein forever."'

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كَامِلٍ فُضَيْلُ بْنُ حُسَيْنٍ الْجَحْدَرِيُّ وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ الْغُبَرِيُّ وَاللَّفْظُ لِأَبِي كَامِلٍ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَجْمَعُ اللَّهُ النَّاسَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ فَيَهْتَمُّونَ لِذَلِكَ و قَالَ ابْنُ عُبَيْدٍ فَيُلْهَمُونَ لِذَلِكَ فَيَقُولُونَ لَوْ اسْتَشْفَعْنَا عَلَى رَبِّنَا حَتَّى يُرِيحَنَا مِنْ مَكَانِنَا هَذَا قَالَ فَيَأْتُونَ آدَمَ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَيَقُولُونَ أَنْتَ آدَمُ أَبُو الْخَلْقِ خَلَقَكَ اللَّهُ بِيَدِهِ وَنَفَخَ فِيكَ مِنْ رُوحِهِ وَأَمَرَ الْمَلَائِكَةَ فَسَجَدُوا لَكَ اشْفَعْ لَنَا عِنْدَ رَبِّكَ حَتَّى يُرِيحَنَا مِنْ مَكَانِنَا هَذَا فَيَقُولُ لَسْتُ هُنَاكُمْ فَيَذْكُرُ خَطِيئَتَهُ الَّتِي أَصَابَ فَيَسْتَحْيِي رَبَّهُ مِنْهَا وَلَكِنْ ائْتُوا نُوحًا أَوَّلَ رَسُولٍ بَعَثَهُ اللَّهُ قَالَ فَيَأْتُونَ نُوحًا صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَيَقُولُ لَسْتُ هُنَاكُمْ فَيَذْكُرُ خَطِيئَتَهُ الَّتِي أَصَابَ فَيَسْتَحْيِي رَبَّهُ مِنْهَا وَلَكِنْ ائْتُوا إِبْرَاهِيمَ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الَّذِي اتَّخَذَهُ اللَّهُ خَلِيلًا فَيَأْتُونَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَيَقُولُ لَسْتُ هُنَاكُمْ وَيَذْكُرُ خَطِيئَتَهُ الَّتِي أَصَابَ فَيَسْتَحْيِي رَبَّهُ مِنْهَا وَلَكِنْ ائْتُوا مُوسَى صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الَّذِي كَلَّمَهُ اللَّهُ وَأَعْطَاهُ التَّوْرَاةَ قَالَ فَيَأْتُونَ مُوسَى صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَيَقُولُ لَسْتُ هُنَاكُمْ وَيَذْكُرُ خَطِيئَتَهُ الَّتِي أَصَابَ فَيَسْتَحْيِي رَبَّهُ مِنْهَا وَلَكِنْ ائْتُوا عِيسَى رُوحَ اللَّهِ وَكَلِمَتَهُ فَيَأْتُونَ عِيسَى رُوحَ اللَّهِ وَكَلِمَتَهُ فَيَقُولُ لَسْتُ هُنَاكُمْ وَلَكِنْ ائْتُوا مُحَمَّدًا صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَبْدًا قَدْ غُفِرَ لَهُ مَا تَقَدَّمَ مِنْ ذَنْبِهِ وَمَا تَأَخَّرَ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَيَأْتُونِي فَأَسْتَأْذِنُ عَلَى رَبِّي فَيُؤْذَنُ لِي فَإِذَا أَنَا رَأَيْتُهُ وَقَعْتُ سَاجِدًا فَيَدَعُنِي مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ فَيُقَالُ يَا مُحَمَّدُ ارْفَعْ رَأْسَكَ قُلْ تُسْمَعْ سَلْ تُعْطَهْ اشْفَعْ تُشَفَّعْ فَأَرْفَعُ رَأْسِي فَأَحْمَدُ رَبِّي بِتَحْمِيدٍ يُعَلِّمُنِيهِ رَبِّي ثُمَّ أَشْفَعُ فَيَحُدُّ لِي حَدًّا فَأُخْرِجُهُمْ مِنْ النَّارِ وَأُدْخِلُهُمْ الْجَنَّةَ ثُمَّ أَعُودُ فَأَقَعُ سَاجِدًا فَيَدَعُنِي مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ أَنْ يَدَعَنِي ثُمَّ يُقَالُ ارْفَعْ رَأْسَكَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ قُلْ تُسْمَعْ سَلْ تُعْطَهْ اشْفَعْ تُشَفَّعْ فَأَرْفَعُ رَأْسِي فَأَحْمَدُ رَبِّي بِتَحْمِيدٍ يُعَلِّمُنِيهِ ثُمَّ أَشْفَعُ فَيَحُدُّ لِي حَدًّا فَأُخْرِجَهُمْ مِنْ النَّارِ وَأُدْخِلُهُمْ الْجَنَّةَ قَالَ فَلَا أَدْرِي فِي الثَّالِثَةِ أَوْ فِي الرَّابِعَةِ قَالَ فَأَقُولُ يَا رَبِّ مَا بَقِيَ فِي النَّارِ إِلَّا مَنْ حَبَسَهُ الْقُرْآنُ أَيْ وَجَبَ عَلَيْهِ الْخُلُودُ. قَالَ ابْنُ عُبَيْدٍ فِي رِوَايَتِهِ قَالَ قَتَادَةُ أَيْ وَجَبَ عَلَيْهِ الْخُلُودُ.

It was narrated that Anas said: "The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said: 'The believers will be gathered together on the Day of Resurrection, and they will be worried about that"' - or: '"they will be inspired concerning that"' - a Hadith similar to that of Abu 'Awanah (no. 475). He (s.a.w) said in the Hadith: "Then I will come to Him - will come back - a fourth time, and I will say: 'O Lord, there is no one left but those who are detained by the Qur'an."'
