وَبِإِسْنَادِهِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَمَّا خَلَقَ اللَّهُ الْجَنَّةَ وَالنَّارَ أَرْسَلَ جِبْرِيلَ قَالَ انْظُرْ إِلَيْهَا وَإِلَى مَا أَعْدَدْتُ لِأَهْلِهَا فِيهَا فَجَاءَ فَنَظَرَ إِلَيْهَا وَإِلَى مَا أَعَدَّ اللَّهُ لِأَهْلِهَا فِيهَا فَرَجَعَ إِلَيْهِ قَالَ وَعِزَّتِكَ لَا يَسْمَعُ بِهَا أَحَدٌ إِلَّا دَخَلَهَا فَأَمَرَ بِهَا فَحُجِبَتْ بِالْمَكَارِهِ قَالَ ارْجِعْ إِلَيْهَا فَانْظُرْ إِلَيْهَا وَإِلَى مَا أَعْدَدْتُ لِأَهْلِهَا فِيهَا قَالَ فَرَجَعَ إِلَيْهَا وَإِذَا هِيَ قَدْ حُجِبَتْ بِالْمَكَارِهِ فَرَجَعَ إِلَيْهِ قَالَ وَعِزَّتِكَ قَدْ خَشِيتُ أَنْ لَا يَدْخُلَهَا أَحَدٌ قَالَ اذْهَبْ إِلَى النَّارِ فَانْظُرْ إِلَيْهَا وَإِلَى مَا أَعْدَدْتُ لِأَهْلِهَا فِيهَا فَإِذَا هِيَ يَرْكَبُ بَعْضُهَا بَعْضًا فَرَجَعَ قَالَ وَعِزَّتِكَ لَقَدْ خَشِيتُ أَنْ لَا يَسْمَعَ بِهَا أَحَدٌ فَيَدْخُلَهَا فَأَمَرَ بِهَا فَحُفَّتْ بِالشَّهَوَاتِ فَقَالَ وَعِزَّتِكَ لَقَدْ خَشِيتُ أَنْ لَا يَنْجُوَ مِنْهَا أَحَدٌ إِلَّا دَخَلَهَا.
الترجمة الإنجليزية
The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: "When Allah created Paradise and Hell, He sent Jibril to Paradise and said: 'Look at it and at what I have prepared for its people in it.' He came and looked at it and at what Allah had prepared for its people in it. He returned to Him and said: 'By Your glory, no one will hear of it except that he will enter it.' So He commanded that it be surrounded with hardships. He said: 'Go back and look at it and at what I have prepared for its people in it.' He returned to it, and it was surrounded with hardships. He returned to Him and said: 'By Your glory, I fear that no one will enter it.' He said: 'Go to the Fire and look at it and at what I have prepared for its people in it.' It was piled up, one part upon another. He returned and said: 'By Your glory, I fear that no one who hears of it will enter it.' So He commanded that it be surrounded with desires. He said: 'By Your glory, I fear that no one will be saved from it except that he will enter it.'"
