٣٦٧١٢ - حدثنا وكيع بن الجراح عن إسرائيل عن أبي إسحاق عن عاصم بن ضمرة قال: ﴿وَسِيقَ الَّذِينَ اتَّقَوْا رَبَّهُمْ إِلَى الْجَنَّةِ زُمَرًا. . .﴾ [الزمر: ٧٣] حتى إذا انتهوا إلى باب من أبواب الجنة وجدوا عند بابها شجرة (يخرج) (١) من تحت (ساقها) (٢) عينان فيأتون إحداهما كأنما أمروا بها فيتطهرون (منها) (٣) فتجري عليهم نضرة ⦗١٥٣⦘ النعيم، قال: فلا (تتغير) (٤) أبشارهم بعدها أبدا، ولا تشعث شعورهم بعدها أبدا، كأنما دهنوا (بالدهان) (٥)، قال: ثم يعمدون إلى الأخرى فيشربون منها فتذهب (ما) (٦) في بطونهم من أذى (و) (٧) قذى وتتلقاهم الملائكة فيقولون: ﴿سَلَامٌ عَلَيْكُمْ طِبْتُمْ فَادْخُلُوهَا خَالِدِينَ﴾ قال: ويتلقى كل غلمان صاحبهم يطيفون به فعل الولدان بالحميم يقدم من الغيبة، (٨) أبشر قد أعبد اللَّه لك من الكرامة كذا، (قال) (٩): ويسبق غلمان من غلمانه إلى أزواجه من الحور العين فيقولون (لهن) (١٠): هذا فلان -باسمه في الدنيا- قد أتاكن، قال: فيقلن: أنتم رأيتموه؟ فيقولون: نعم قال: فيستخفهن الفرح حتى يخرجن إلى أسكفة الباب، قال: ويدخل الجنة فإذا نمارق مصفوفة وأكواب موضوعة وزرابي مبثوثة، فيتكئ على أريكة من أرائكه، قال: فينظر إلى تأسيس بنيانه فإذا هو قد أسس على جندل اللؤلؤ بين أصفر وأحمر وأخضر ومن كل لون، قال: ثم يرفع طرفه إلى سقفه فلولا أن اللَّه قدره له لألم بصره أن يذهب بالبرق ثم قرأ: ﴿وَقَالُوا الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي هَدَانَا لِهَذَا (وَمَا كنا لِنَهْتَدِيَ لَوْلَا أَنْ هَدَانَا اللَّهُ) (١١)﴾ [الأعراف: ٤٣] (١٢).
Asim bin Damrah said concerning the verse of the Noble Qur'an, "And those who feared their Lord will be driven to Paradise in groups" [Al-Zumar: 73]: When the people of Paradise reach one of the gates of Paradise, they will find near its gate a tree from whose roots two springs flow. They will come to one of them as if they had been commanded to, and they will purify themselves from it. Then the radiance of bliss will flow over them. After that their bodies will never change, and after that their hair will never become dishevelled, as if they had been anointed with oil. Then they will come to the other spring and drink from it, and by drinking it every kind of illness and harm in their stomachs will be removed. 2. The angels will meet them and say to them: "Peace be upon you; you have done well, so enter it to abide forever." The narrator said: Each person's serving boys will meet him and go around him, as boys go around a dear one who has returned from a journey, saying: "Glad tidings to you! Allah Almighty has prepared such and such honour for you." Then some of his serving boys will run ahead to his houris and say to them: "This is so-and-so (calling him by his name in the world); he has come to you." Those houris will ask: "Have you seen him?" They will say: "Yes." Then joy will so move those houris that they will come out to the threshold of the door. 3. That man of Paradise will enter Paradise, and there will be cushions set in rows, cups placed ready and carpets spread out. He will recline on one of the couches. Then he will look at the foundations of his building, and they will have been laid with great pearls of yellow, red and green, and of every colour. Then he will look up at the ceiling, and had Allah Almighty not granted him the ability, his sight would have been taken away by its brilliance. Then he recited this verse: "And they will say: All praise is for Allah, who guided us to this; and we would never have been guided had Allah not guided us." [Al-A'raf: 43]
