Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah

It is narrated from Hazrat Ka’b that he says: On the Day of Resurrection, a leader who was foremost in goodness will be brought, and it will be said to him: Answer your Lord. Then he will be taken to his Lord, and there will be no veil between him and his Lord. Then he will be ordered to go to Paradise, so he will see his own rank and the ranks of those who assisted and helped him in good deeds. And it will be said to him: This is so-and-so’s rank, and this is so-and-so’s rank. Thus, whatever honor and status Allah Almighty has prepared for him in Paradise, he will see it. And he will see his own rank superior to the ranks of others. He will be clothed in the garments of Paradise, and a crown will be placed on his head, and the breeze of Paradise will be made to flow over him. And his face will be made so radiant that it will become like the moon. The narrator Hammam says: I think my teacher said, like the full moon... The narrator says: Then he will come out, and whoever sees him will say: O Allah, make him among us, until he comes to those who used to assist and participate with him in good deeds. And he will say: O so-and-so! Rejoice, for Allah Almighty has prepared such and such for you in Paradise, and for you, such and such has been prepared in Paradise. Thus, he will keep informing them about the blessings that Allah Almighty has prepared for them in Paradise, until their faces also become as white as his face. Thus, people will recognize them by the whiteness of their faces and will say: These are the people of Paradise.

(And the leader of the wicked will be brought, and it will be said to him: Answer your Lord. Then he will be taken to his Lord, and then a veil will be placed between him and his Lord, and he will be ordered to go to Hell, and there he will see his own rank and the ranks of his companions. It will be said to him: This is so-and-so’s rank, and this is so-and-so’s rank. Thus, he will see the humiliation prepared by Allah for him there, and he will see his own rank worse than all others. The narrator says: His face will become black and his eyes blue, and a cap of fire will be placed on his head. Then when he comes out, every group that sees him will seek refuge with Allah from him. Then he will come to those companions who used to assist and participate with him in evil. The narrator says: Those people will say: We seek refuge with Allah from you. The narrator says: He will say: May Allah not grant you refuge from me. Then he will say to them: O so-and-so! Remember such and such thing. Thus, he will remind them of all the mischiefs which they used to do together and with mutual assistance. He will keep telling them about the punishment prepared for them in Hell, until their faces also become black like his face, and people will recognize them by the blackness of their faces and will say: These are the people of Hell.)
