Arabic (Original)
أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو يَعْلَى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الصَّبَّاحِ الدُّولَابِيُّ مُنْذُ ثَمَانِينَ سَنَةً قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ زَكَرِيَّا عَنْ عَاصِمٍ الْأَحْوَلِ عَنْ عَوْسَجَةَ بْنِ الرَّمَّاحِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي الْهُذَيْلِ عَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لَا يَجْلِسُ بَعْدَ التَّسْلِيمِ إِلَّا قَدْرَ مَا يَقُولُ «اللَّهُمَّ أَنْتَ السَّلَامُ وَمِنْكَ السَّلَامُ تَبَارَكْتَ يَا ذَا الْجَلَالِ وَالْإِكْرَامِ»
English Translation
Ahmad ibn Ali ibn al-Muthanna informed us, saying: Muhammad ibn Ja'far narrated to us, saying: Shu'bah narrated to us from Humam from Qatadah from Anas that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'A man from among the people of Paradise will be brought, and the Lord will say to him: O son of Adam, how do you find your abode? He will say: O Lord, the best abode. He will say: Ask and wish. He will say: I ask You to return me to the world so that I may be killed in Your cause ten times, when he sees the virtue of martyrdom.' And Abu Hurayrah said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'By the One in Whose hand is my soul, Allah would love for a man to be killed in the cause of Allah, then brought back to life, then killed again, then brought back to life, then killed again.'
