Hadith 181
حَدَّثَنَا حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ بن مَيْسَرَةَ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ الْبُنَانِيِّ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى , عَنْ صُهَيْبٍ ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : " إِذَا دَخَلَ أَهْلُ الْجَنَّةِ الْجَنَّةَ ، قَالَ : يَقُولُ اللَّهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى : تُرِيدُونَ شَيْئًا أَزِيدُكُمْ ؟ فَيَقُولُونَ : أَلَمْ تُبَيِّضْ وُجُوهَنَا ، أَلَمْ تُدْخِلْنَا الْجَنَّةَ ، وَتُنَجِّنَا مِنَ النَّارِ ؟ قَالَ : فَيَكْشِفُ الْحِجَابَ ، فَمَا أُعْطُوا شَيْئًا أَحَبَّ إِلَيْهِمْ مِنَ النَّظَرِ إِلَى رَبِّهِمْ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ " ،
Suhaib reported the Apostle (ﷺ) saying: When those deserving of Paradise would enter Paradise, the Blessed and the Exalted would ask: Do you wish Me to give you anything more? They would say: Hast Thou not brightened our faces? Hast Thou not made us enter Paradise and saved us from Fire? He (the narrator) said: He (God) would lift the veil, and of things given to them nothing would he dearer to them than the sight of their Lord, the Mighty and the Glorious.

(1)
The vision of Allah, exalted is He, is the greatest and most delightful blessing that will be granted to the inhabitants of Paradise, and it will be the most beloved blessing for them.
(2)
Entering Paradise is also a blessing, which serves as a means to attain the vision of Allah; therefore, the statement of some Sufis is not correct—that while performing good deeds, one should neither desire Paradise nor fear Hell, but only seek Allah Himself. Allah, exalted is He, has described the quality of righteous believers as follows: they supplicate in this manner:
﴿رَبَّنا ءاتِنا فِى الدُّنيا حَسَنَةً وَفِى الأخِرَةِ حَسَنَةً وَقِنا عَذابَ النّارِ﴾ ( al-Baqarah: 201)
“Our Lord! Grant us good in this world and good in the Hereafter, and save us from the punishment of the Fire.”
