Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو سَعِيدٍ حَدَّثَنَا زَائِدَةُ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَقِيلٍ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ مَشَيْتُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِلَى امْرَأَةٍ مِنْ الْأَنْصَارِ فَذَبَحَتْ لَنَا شَاةً فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَيَدْخُلَنَّ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ فَدَخَلَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ فَقَالَ لَيَدْخُلَنَّ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ فَدَخَلَ عُمَرُ فَقَالَ لَيَدْخُلَنَّ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ فَقَالَ اللَّهُمَّ إِنْ شِئْتَ فَاجْعَلْهُ عَلِيًّا فَدَخَلَ عَلِيٌّ ثُمَّ أُتِينَا بِطَعَامٍ فَأَكَلْنَا فَقُمْنَا إِلَى صَلَاةِ الظُّهْرِ وَلَمْ يَتَوَضَّأْ أَحَدٌ مِنَّا ثُمَّ أُتِينَا بِبَقِيَّةِ الطَّعَامِ ثُمَّ قُمْنَا إِلَى الْعَصْرِ وَمَا مَسَّ أَحَدٌ مِنَّا مَاءً.
English Translation
Abu Sa'id told us, Za'ida told us, from Abdullah ibn Muhammad ibn Aqil, from Jabir ibn Abdullah, who said: I walked with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) to a woman from the Ansar, and she slaughtered a sheep for us. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: A man from the people of Paradise will surely enter. So Abu Bakr entered. Then he said: A man from the people of Paradise will surely enter. So Umar entered. Then he said: A man from the people of Paradise will surely enter, and said: O Allah, if You wish, let it be Ali. So Ali entered. Then food was brought to us and we ate, then we got up for the Zuhr prayer without any of us performing ablution; then the rest of the food was brought to us, then we got up for the Asr prayer, and none of us had touched water.
