أَخْبَرَنَا
أَبُو خَلِيفَةَ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا
إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ الرَّمَادِيُّ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا
سُفْيَانُ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا
أَيُّوبُ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ
مُحَمَّدًا ، يَقُولُ اخْتَصَمَ الرِّجَالُ وَالنِّسَاءُ أَيُّهُمْ فِي الْجَنَّةِ أَكْثَرُ ؟ فَأَتَوْا
أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ ، فَسَأَلُوهُ ، فَقَالَ : قَالَ أَبُو الْقَاسِمِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " أَوَّلُ زُمْرَةٍ تَدْخُلُ الْجَنَّةَ مِنَ أُمَّتِي عَلَى صُورَةِ الْقَمَرِ لَيْلَةَ الْبَدْرِ ، ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ عَلَى أَضْوَأِ كَوْكَبٍ فِي السَّمَاءِ دُرِّيٍّ أَوْ دُرِّيءٍ شَكَّ سُفْيَانُ لِكُلِّ رَجُلٍ مِنْهُمْ زَوْجَتَانِ اثْنَتَانِ ، يُرَى مُخُّ سُوقِهِنَّ مِنْ وَرَاءِ اللَّحْمِ ، وَمَا فِي الْجَنَّةِ أَعْزُبُ " .
Narrated by Muhammad: Once, there was a dispute between some men and women regarding which of them would be greater in number in Paradise. They came to Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) and asked him about this. Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Sayyiduna Abu al-Qasim (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The very first group of my Ummah to enter Paradise will be like the full moon on the fourteenth night. Those who come after them will be like the brightest star in the sky. (Regarding one word here, the narrator Sufyan is in doubt.) Each of them will have two wives, the marrow of whose shins will be visible from beneath the flesh, and there will be no unmarried person in Paradise.
