Musnad Abi Ya'la 5358 — the Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked us: How would
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَيْثَمَةَ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ بْنُ زِيَادٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا الْحَارِثُ بْنُ حَصِيرَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا الْقَاسِمُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ ، قَالَ : قَالَ لَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : كَيْفَ أَنْتُمْ وَرُبُعُ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ ، لَكُمْ رُبُعُهَا وَلِسَائِرِ النَّاسِ ثَلَاثَةُ أَرْبَاعِهَا ؟ قَالَ : فَقَالُوا : اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ ، قَالَ : فَكَيْفَ أَنْتُمْ وَثُلُثُهَا ؟ قَالَ : فَيَقُولُونَ : فَذَاكَ الْخَيْرُ ، قَالَ : فَكَيْفَ أَنْتُمْ وَالشَّطْرُ ؟ قَالُوا : فَذَاكَ الْخَيْرُ ، قَالَ : فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : أَهْلُ الْجَنَّةِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ عِشْرُونَ وَمِائَةُ صَفٍّ أَنْتُمْ مِنْهَا ثَمَانُونَ صَفًّا .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) asked us: "How would it be for you if you were a quarter of the people of Paradise, that is, a quarter of Paradise were yours and three quarters were for all the rest of the people?" The narrator said: The Companions said: "Allah and His Messenger know best." He (peace and blessings be upon him) asked again: "And how would it be for you if you became a third of the people of Paradise?" The Companions said: "That would be a matter of great good and blessing." He (peace and blessings be upon him) asked again: "And how would it be if you were half of the people of Paradise?" They said: "That would be a matter of very great good." Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "On the Day of Resurrection the people of Paradise will be one hundred and twenty rows in all, of which eighty rows will be yours alone."
