Al-Fath ar-Rabbani 9318 — on what has been narrated regarding
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ ثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ زَيْدٍ أَبِي الْحَوَارِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي الصِّدِّيقِ عَنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ ((يَدْخُلُ فُقَرَاءُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ الْجَنَّةَ قَبْلَ أَغْنِيَائِهِمْ بِأَرْبَعِمِائَةِ عَامٍ)) قَالَ فَقُلْتُ إِنَّ الْحَسَنَ يَذْكُرُ أَرْبَعِينَ عَامًا فَقَالَ عَنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ ((أَرْبَعُمِائَةِ عَامٍ)) قَالَ حَتَّى يَقُولَ الْغَنِيُّ يَا لَيْتَنِي كُنْتُ عَيِّلًا قَالَ قُلْنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ سَمِّهِمْ لَنَا بِأَسْمَائِهِمْ قَالَ ((هُمُ الَّذِينَ إِذَا كَانَ مَكْرُوهٌ بُعِثُوا لَهُ وَإِذَا كَانَ مَغْنَمٌ بُعِثَ إِلَيْهِ سِوَاهُمْ وَهُمُ الَّذِينَ يُحْجَبُونَ عَنِ الْأَبْوَابِ))
Some of the noble Companions narrate that the Holy Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: The poor believer will enter Paradise four hundred years before the wealthy Muslims. I said: Hasan mentions forty years? But they narrated on the authority of the Companions of the Messenger that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, spoke of four hundred years, to the extent that the wealthy person will say: Would that I had been very needy as well. We said: O Messenger of Allah! Please describe the qualities of these poor ones. He, peace and blessings be upon him, said: These are the people who, when the time for battle comes, are sent forth, but when it is time for the spoils, others are sent, and these are the people who are turned away from the doors (of the nobles).
