حَدَّثَنَا مُسْلِمُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا قَتَادَةُ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، أَنَّ رَجُلاً سَأَلَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ: يَا نَبِيَّ اللهِ، مَتَى السَّاعَةُ؟ فَقَالَ: ”وَمَا أَعْدَدْتَ لَهَا؟“ قَالَ: مَا أَعْدَدْتُ مِنْ كَبِيرٍ، إِلاَّ أَنِّي أُحِبُّ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ، فَقَالَ: ”الْمَرْءُ مَعَ مَنْ أَحَبَّ.“ قَالَ أَنَسٌ : فَمَا رَأَيْتُ الْمُسْلِمِيْنَ فَرِحُوْا بَعْدَ الْإِسْلَامِ أَشَدَّ مِمَّا فَرِحُوْا يَوْمَئِذٍ.
Narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man asked the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him): "O Messenger of Allah! When will the Hour (Day of Judgment) come?" The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "What have you prepared for it?" He replied: "I have not prepared much for it, except that I love Allah and His Messenger." The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "A person will be with those whom he loves." Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) says: After Islam, I have not seen the Muslims happier than they were on that day.
