Musnad Ahmad Hadith 6570

It is narrated from Ibn Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) asked the companions (may Allah be pleased with them), "Do you know who among the creation of Allah will be the first to enter Paradise?" The companions (may Allah be pleased with them) replied, "Allah and His Messenger know best." The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said: "The first among the creation of Allah to enter Paradise will be those poor and emigrants upon whose arrival the doors were closed, through whom people would avoid undesirable matters, and who would die with their needs in their chests but could not fulfill them. Allah Almighty will command whomever He wills from among His angels to go to them and greet them with peace. The angels will say, 'We are the inhabitants of the heavens and the chosen ones among Your creation, and You are commanding us to greet them with peace?' Allah Almighty will say, 'These are the people who worshipped Me alone, did not associate anyone with Me, the doors were closed upon them, through them people would avoid undesirable matters, and they would die with their needs in their chests but could not fulfill them.' Thus, the angels will come to them and from every door will call out, 'Peace be upon you for the patience you observed; how excellent is the final home of the Hereafter.'"
