Hadith 2838
حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي قُدَامَةَ وَهُوَ الْحَارِثُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ عَنْ أَبِي عِمْرَانَ الْجَوْنِيِّ ، عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : " إِنَّ لِلْمُؤْمِنِ فِي الْجَنَّةِ لَخَيْمَةً مِنْ لُؤْلُؤَةٍ ، وَاحِدَةٍ مُجَوَّفَةٍ طُولُهَا سِتُّونَ مِيلًا لِلْمُؤْمِنِ فِيهَا أَهْلُونَ يَطُوفُ عَلَيْهِمُ الْمُؤْمِنُ ، فَلَا يَرَى بَعْضُهُمْ بَعْضًا " .
Abu Bakr (RA) bin 'Abdullah bin Qais (RA) reported on the authority of his father that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said that in Paradise there would be for a believer a tent of a single hollowed pearl the breadth of which would be sixty miles. It would be meant for a believer and the believers would go around it and none would be able to see the others.
