Al-Matalib al-'Aliyah 4555 — The description of the resurrection

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْغَفَّارِ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ ، ثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُسْهِرٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ ، عَنْ شَهْرِ بْنِ حَوْشَبٍ ، عَنْ أَسْمَاءَ بِنْتِ يَزِيدَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهَا ، قَالَتْ : سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، يَقُولُ : إِذَا جَمَعَ اللهُ الْأَوَّلِينَ وَالْآخِرِينَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ ، جَاءَ مُنَادٍ يُنَادِي بِصَوْتٍ يُسْمِعُ جَمِيعَ الْخَلَائِقِ : سَيَعْلَمُ أَهْلُ الْجَمْعِ الْيَوْمَ مَنْ أَوْلَى بِالْكَرَمِ ، ثُمَّ يَرْجِعُ فَيُنَادِي : لِيَقُمِ الَّذِينَ كَانَتْ : تَتَجَافَى جُنُوبُهُمْ عَنِ الْمَضَاجِعِ الْآيَةَ فَيَقُومُونَ وَهُمْ قَلِيلٌ ، ثُمَّ يَرْجِعُ فَيُنَادِي : أَيْنَ الَّذِينَ كَانُوا : لا تُلْهِيهِمْ تِجَارَةٌ وَلا بَيْعٌ عَنْ ذِكْرِ اللهِ الْآيَةَ ، فَيَقُومُونَ وَهُمْ قَلِيلٌ ، ثُمَّ يَرْجِعُ فَيُنَادِي : لِيَقُمِ الَّذِينَ كَانُوا يَحْمَدُونَ فِي السَّرَّاءِ وَالضَّرَّاءِ ، فَيَقُومُونَ وَهُمْ قَلِيلٌ ، ثُمَّ يُحَاسَبُ سَائِرُ النَّاسِ .
It is narrated from Sayyidah Asma' bint Yazid (may Allah be pleased with her) that I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) saying: "When Allah Almighty gathers the first and the last on the Day of Resurrection, a caller will call out in a voice that all creatures will hear: 'Today the people of the gathering will come to know who is most deserving of honour and esteem.' Then he will come again and call out: 'Let those people stand about whom the Exalted Lord has said: "Their sides forsake their beds" [Surah al-Sajdah: 16], i.e. their sides stayed away from their beds (for the worship of Allah).' So those people will stand up, and they will be few in number. Then that caller will come again and call out: 'Where are those about whom it was said: "Neither trade nor selling distracts them from the remembrance of Allah" [Surah al-Nur: 37], i.e. those whom neither commerce nor buying and selling made heedless of the remembrance of Allah?' So they too will stand up, and they too will be few. Then that caller will come again and call out: 'Let those stand who used to praise Allah in every state, in prosperity and in hardship.' So they too will stand, and they too will be few in number. Then after that all the rest of the people will be brought to account."
Imam al-Bayhaqi narrated this hadith in Shu'ab al-Iman and Imam Ahmad in his Musnad. Its chain contains Shahr bin Hawshab, who, although saduq (truthful), has been criticised for his memory; however, on the basis of other supporting narrations the text of this hadith is of the hasan (good) grade.
