Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 36726 — Reports on the description
٣٦٧٢٦ - حدثنا أبو خالد الأحمر عن مجالد عن الشعبي عن المغيرة بن شعبة قال: قال موسى: يا رب (١) (ما لأدنى) (٢) أهل الجنة منزلة؟ قال: رجل يبقى في الدمنة (حيث) (٣) (يحبس) (٤) الناس، قال: فيقال له: قم فأدخل الجنة، قال: أين أدخل وقد سبقني الناس؟ قال: فيقال له: تمن أربعة ملوك من ملوك الدنيا ممن كنت تتمنى مثل ملكهم وسلطانهم، قال: فيقول: فلان، قال: فيعد أربعة ثم يقال له: تمن (بقلبك) (٥) ما شئت، قال: فيتمنى، قال: ثم يقال له: اشته ما شئت، قال: فيشتهي، قال: فيقال: لك هذا وعشرة أضعافه، قال: فقال موسى: ⦗١٦٠⦘ يا رب، فما لأهل صفوتك؟ قال: فقيل: هذا الذي أردت، قال: خلقت كرامتهم وعملتها بيدي، وختمت على خزائنها ما لا عين رأت ولا خطر على قلب بشر، ثم تلا: ﴿فَلَا تَعْلَمُ نَفْسٌ مَا أُخْفِيَ لَهُمْ مِنْ قُرَّةِ أَعْيُنٍ جَزَاءً بِمَا كَانُوا يَعْمَلُونَ﴾ [السجدة: ١٧] (٦).
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Mughirah bin Shu'bah (may Allah be pleased with him) that Musa (peace be upon him) said: "O Allah! What will be the rank of the lowest person of Paradise?" He said: "A man who will remain in the animal pen (the refuse heap), where people are held back. He will be commanded: 'Enter Paradise.' He will say: 'Where shall I enter, when the people have gone ahead of me?' It will be said to him: 'Wish and desire the equal of the kingship and rule of four kings of the world.' He will say: 'Such and such a king,' and so he will count four kings. Then it will be said to him: 'Wish in your heart whatever you want.' He will make his wish. Then it will be said to him: 'Desire whatever you want.' He will desire it. Then it will be said to him: 'All of this is yours, and ten times more besides.'" Musa (peace be upon him) said: "O Allah! What blessings are there for Your sincere friends?" It was said to him: "This is what I have intended. I have made it for their honour, made it with My Hand and set a seal on it: blessings that no eye has seen and whose thought has not even crossed the heart of any human being." Then he recited this verse: "No soul knows what delight of the eyes has been kept hidden for them, as a reward for what they used to do." [Al-Sajdah: 17]
