Hadith 12983

(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا بَهْزٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ ، قَالَ : أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عِمْرَانَ الْجَوْنِيُّ ، وَحُمَيْدٌ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ : " دَخَلْتُ الْجَنَّةَ ، فَرَأَيْتُ قَصْرًا مِنْ ذَهَبٍ ، فَقُلْتُ : لِمَنْ هَذَا ؟ قَالُوا : لِفَتًى مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ ، فَظَنَنْتُهُ لِي ، فَإِذَا هُوَ لِعُمَرَ " قَالَ : فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " مَا مَنَعَنِي يَا أَبَا حَفْصٍ أَنْ أَدْخُلَهُ إِلَّا مَا أَعْرِفُ مِنْ غَيْرَتِكَ " قَالَ : قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، مَنْ كُنْتُ أَغَارُ عَلَيْهِ ، فَإِنِّي لَمْ أَكُنْ أَغَارُ عَلَيْكَ .
It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Once I entered Paradise and there I saw a palace made of gold. I asked, "Whose palace is this?" People replied, "It belongs to a young man from the Quraysh." I asked, "Who is he?" People replied, "Umar bin Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him)." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: If I had not known about your sense of honor (ghayrah), I would certainly have entered it. Hazrat Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! I may express my sense of honor before anyone, but I cannot do so before you."
