حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، عَنِ ابْنِ سِيرِينَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: " احْتَجَّتْ الْجَنَّةُ وَالنَّارُ، فَقَالَتِ الْجَنَّةُ: يَا رَبِّ، مَا لِي لَا يَدْخُلُنِي إِلَّا فُقَرَاءُ النَّاسِ وَسَقَطُهُمْ؟ وَقَالَتِ النَّارُ: يَا رَبِّ (١) مَا لِي لَا يَدْخُلُنِي إِلَّا الْجَبَّارُونَ وَالْمُتَكَبِّرُونَ؟ فَقَالَ لِلنَّارِ: أَنْتِ عَذَابِي أُصِيبُ بِكِ مَنْ أَشَاءُ، وَقَالَ لِلْجَنَّةِ: أَنْتِ رَحْمَتِي أُصِيبُ بِكِ مَنْ أَشَاءُ، وَلِكُلِّ وَاحِدَةٍ مِنْكُمَا مِلْؤُهَا، فَأَمَّا الْجَنَّةُ، فَإِنَّ اللهَ يُنْشِئُ لَهَا مَا يَشَاءُ، وَأَمَّا النَّارُ، فَيُلْقَوْنَ فِيهَا، وَتَقُولُ: هَلْ مِنْ مَزِيدٍ؟ حَتَّى يَضَعَ قَدَمَهُ فِيهَا، فَهُنَالِكَ تَمْتَلِئُ، وَيُزْوَى بَعْضُهَا إِلَى بَعْضٍ، وَتَقُولُ: قَطْ، قَطْ، قَطْ " (٢)، ، . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .، ،

English translation

It is narrated from Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said: Once Paradise and Hell had a mutual discussion. Paradise said: O Lord, what is my fault that only the poor and lowly people will enter me? And Hell said: What is my fault that only the tyrants and the arrogant will enter me? Allah said to Hell: You are My punishment; I will punish with you whomever I wish. And He said to Paradise: You are My mercy; I will show mercy through you to whomever I wish. And I will fill both of you. Thus, for Paradise, Allah the Exalted will create a new creation according to His will, and as people are thrown into Hell, Hell will keep saying: Is there any more? Until Allah the Exalted will place His foot of power in it, at which point Hell will be filled, and its parts will contract and join together, and it will say: Enough. Enough, enough.
