عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ هَجَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ نِسَاءَهُ شَهْرًا فَأَتَاهُ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ وَهُوَ فِي غُرْفَةٍ عَلَى حَصِيرٍ قَدْ أَثَّرَ الْحَصِيرُ بِظَهْرِهِ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ كِسْرَى يَشْرَبُونَ فِي الذَّهَبِ وَالْفِضَّةِ وَأَنْتَ هَكَذَا فَقَالَ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ ((إِنَّهُمْ عُجِّلَتْ لَهُمْ طَيِّبَاتُهُمْ فِي حَيَاتِهِمِ الدُّنْيَا))
Syedna Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, narrates that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him and his family, left his wives for a month. Then Syedna Umar, may Allah be pleased with him, came to the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him and his family, while he was sitting in an upper room on a mat that had left its marks on his back. Syedna Umar, may Allah be pleased with him, said: O Messenger of Allah! People like Kisra drink from vessels of gold and silver, and you are in this condition. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him and his family, said: Their good deeds have been hastened for them in this world.
Brief Explanation
Benefits: … Thus, in the abundance of blessings, there is a possibility of such a danger that perhaps, in their form, the recompense for good deeds is being given in this world itself. Consider the following example:
Food was brought to our master ‘Abd al-Rahman ibn ‘Awf radi Allahu anhu (for breaking his fast) while he was fasting. He said: “Mus‘ab ibn ‘Umayr was killed and he was better than me. He was shrouded in a single cloth; if his head was covered, his feet would be exposed, and if his feet were covered, his head would be exposed. And I think he also said: Hamzah was killed and he was better than me. Then the world was spread out for us, or he said: we were given from the world what we were given, and we fear that our good deeds have been hastened for us (i.e., their reward given in this world).” Then he began to weep until he left the food. (Sahih Bukhari: 1196)
