Sayyiduna Mu'adh bin Jabal (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "If you wish, I will tell you what Allah Almighty will say first on the Day of Resurrection, and what they (that is, the believers) will say first." The people said: "Yes!" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Allah Almighty will say to the believers: 'Did you love to come into My presence?' They will answer: 'Yes! O our Lord!' The Lord will say: 'Why?' They will say: 'We hoped for Your mercy and Your pardon.' The Lord will say: 'My mercy has become due for you.'"
Imam al-Tabarani recorded it with two chains, one of which is hasan (good).
