Hadith 2853
حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ الْعَنْبَرِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ ، حَدَّثَنِي مَعْبَدُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ حَارِثَةَ بْنَ وَهْبٍ ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : " أَلَا أُخْبِرُكُمْ بِأَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ ؟ " ، قَالُوا : بَلَى ، قَالَ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " كُلُّ ضَعِيفٍ مُتَضَعِّفٍ لَوْ أَقْسَمَ عَلَى اللَّهِ لَأَبَرَّهُ " ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : " أَلَا أُخْبِرُكُمْ بِأَهْلِ النَّارِ ؟ " ، قَالُوا : بَلَى ، قَالَ : " كُلُّ عُتُلٍّ جَوَّاظٍ مُسْتَكْبِرٍ " ،
Haritha bin Wahb reported that he heard Allah's Apostle (ﷺ) as saying: May I not inform you about the inmates of Paradise? They said: Do this, of course. Thereupon Allah's Apostle (ﷺ) said: Every humble person who is considered to be humble if he were to adjure In the name of Allah, He would fulfil it. He then said: May I not inform you about the denizens of Hell-Fire? They said: Yes. And he said: Every haughty, fat and proud (person).

وحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ ، بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ بِمِثْلِهِ ، غَيْر أَنَّهُ قَالَ : أَلَا أَدُلُّكُمْ .
This hadith has been narrated on the authority of Shu'bah with the same chain of transmitters but with a slight variation of wording.

وحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ نُمَيْرٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ ، عَنْ مَعْبَدِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ حَارِثَةَ بْنَ وَهْبٍ الْخُزَاعِيَّ ، يَقُولُ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " أَلَا أُخْبِرُكُمْ بِأَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ ؟ كُلُّ ضَعِيفٍ مُتَضَعِّفٍ لَوْ أَقْسَمَ عَلَى اللَّهِ لَأَبَرَّهُ ، أَلَا أُخْبِرُكُمْ بِأَهْلِ النَّارِ ؟ كُلُّ جَوَّاظٍ زَنِيمٍ مُتَكَبِّرٍ " .
Haritha bin Wahb al-KhuzaIi reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying: May I not inform you about the inmates of Paradise? (And then informing about them) said: Every meek person who is considered to be humble and if they were to adjure in the name of Allah, Allah would certainly fulfil it. May I not inform you about the inmates of Hell-Fire? They are all proud, mean and haughty.
