اُردوEn
عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ ((أَلَا أُخْبِرُكُمْ بِأَهْلِ النَّارِ وَأَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ أَمَّا أَهْلُ الْجَنَّةِ فَكُلُّ ضَعِيفٍ مُتَضَعَّفٍ أَشْعَثَ ذِي طِمْرَيْنِ لَوْ أَقْسَمَ عَلَى اللَّهِ لَأَبَرَّهُ وَأَمَّا أَهْلُ النَّارِ فَكُلُّ جَعْظَرِيٍّ جَوَّاظٍ جَمَّاعٍ مَنَّاعٍ ذِي تَبَعٍ))
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Shall I not tell you about the people of Hell and the people of Paradise? The people of Paradise are: every weak person, who is considered weak, disheveled-haired, and wearing two worn-out old garments, (but in the sight of Allah Almighty, he is so esteemed that) if he swears by Allah Almighty, He fulfills his oath. And the people of Hell are: every ill-tempered (and ill-natured) person, one who walks arrogantly, accumulates a lot of wealth and is extremely miserly, and whom other people follow.
Brief Explanation
Benefits: … The virtue of those who are poor and live in obscurity has been mentioned, those who do not possess any distinguished status in society, who are subdued and helpless, and whom no one gives any importance to; yet, they are honored and esteemed in the sight of Allah, the Exalted. Furthermore, in this hadith, ill-temper and bad manners, arrogance and pride, haughtiness and conceit, fame and notoriety, wealth and riches, and miserliness and stinginess have been condemned, and those possessing these traits have been described as inhabitants of Hell.
