Hadith 920
أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، نا حَمْزَةُ الزَّيَّاتُ، عَنْ أَبِي مُجَاهِدٍ سَعْدٍ الطَّائِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي الْمُدَلَّهِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: قُلْنَا: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَا لَنَا إِذَا كُنَّا عِنْدَكَ كَأَنَّ قُلُوبَنَا فِي الْآخِرَةِ، وَإِذَا خَرَجْنَا مِنْ عِنْدِكَ فَلَقِينَا الْأَهْلَ وَالْوَلَدَ ذَهَبَ ذَلِكَ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: لَوْ كُنْتُمْ إِذَا خَرَجْتُمْ مِنْ عِنْدِي تَكُونُونَ كَمَا تَكُونُونَ عِنْدِي لَصَافَحَتْكُمُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ بِأَكُفِّهَا وَلَزَارَتْكُمْ فِي بُيُوتِكُمْ، وَلَوْ لَمْ تُذْنِبُوا لَجَاءَ اللَّهُ بِقَوْمٍ يُذْنِبُونَ فَيَغْفِرَ لَهُمْ "، قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَخْبِرْنِي مِمَّا خُلِقَ الْخَلْقُ، فَقَالَ: ((مِنَ الْمَاءِ)) ، قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَخْبِرْنِي عَنِ الْجَنَّةِ مَا بِنَاؤُهَا، فَذَكَرَ مِثْلَ حَدِيثِ عِيسَى إِلَى آخِرِهِ سَوَاءً، وَقَالَ: ((الْمِسْكُ الْإِذْخِرُ وَحَصْبَاؤُهَا اللُّؤْلُؤُ وَالْيَاقُوتُ)) ، وَقَالَ: ((وَالْإِمَامُ الْمُقْسِطُ لَا تُرَدُّ دَعْوَتُهُ)).
Sayyiduna Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated: We said, "O Messenger of Allah! What is the matter with us that when we are with you, it is as if our hearts are attached to the Hereafter, but when we leave you and meet our families, this state leaves us?" The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "If your state after leaving me remained as it is when you are with me, then the angels would shake hands with you with their hands, visit you in your homes, and if you did not commit sins, Allah would bring people who would commit sins and then be forgiven." I said, "O Messenger of Allah! Tell me, from what was the creation made?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "From water." I said, "O Messenger of Allah! Tell me about Paradise and its construction." Then the narrator mentioned the narration similar to that of Isa and continued to the end, and said: "«مسک» (musk) «أذخر» is its mortar and its pebbles are pearls, jewels, and rubies." And he said: "The prayer of a just king is not rejected."
