عَنْ مُعَاذِ بْنِ جَبَلٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ((إِنْ شِئْتُمْ أَنْبَأْتُكُمْ مَا أَوَّلُ مَا يَقُولُ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ لِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَمَا أَوَّلُ مَا يَقُولُونَ لَهُ))، قُلْنَا: نَعَمْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ! قَالَ: ((إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ يَقُولُ لِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ هَلْ أَحْبَبْتُمْ لِقَاءِي؟ فَيَقُولُونَ: نَعَمْ يَا رَبَّنَا، فَيَقُولُ لِمَ؟ فَيَقُولُونَ: رَجَوْنَا عَفْوَكَ وَمَغْفِرَتَكَ فَيَقُولُ قَدْ وَجَبَتْ لَكُمْ مَغْفِرَتِي))
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Mu’adh bin Jabal (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: If you wish, I will tell you what Allah Almighty will say first to the people of faith on the Day of Resurrection and what they will say to Him. We said: Yes, O Messenger of Allah! You (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Allah Almighty will say to the believers: Did you desire to meet Me? They will say: Yes, O our Lord! Allah Almighty will ask: Why? They will say: We hoped for Your pardon and forgiveness. Then He will say: My forgiveness has become obligatory for you.
