حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أَحْمَدَ الزُّبَيْرِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ الْجُرَيْرِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ، عَنْ حَنْظَلَةَ قَالَ: كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَذَكَرْنَا (١) الْجَنَّةَ وَالنَّارَ حَتَّى كَانَا رَأْيَ عَيْنٍ، فَقُمْتُ إِلَى أَهْلِي فَضَحِكْتُ وَلَعِبْتُ مَعَ أَهْلِي وَوَلَدِي، فَذَكَرْتُ مَا كُنْتُ عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَخَرَجْتُ، فَلَقِيتُ أَبَا بَكْرٍ، فَقُلْتُ: يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ، نَافَقَ حَنْظَلَةُ. قَالَ: وَمَاذَاكَ ذَاكَ؟ قُلْتُ: كُنَّا عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَذَكَرْنَا الْجَنَّةَ وَالنَّارَ حَتَّى كَأَنَّا رَأْيَ عَيْنٍ، فَذَهَبْتُ إِلَى أَهْلِي، فَضَحِكْتُ وَلَعِبْتُ مَعَ وَلَدِي وَأَهْلِي، فَقَالَ: إِنَّا لَنَفْعَلُ ذَاكَ. قَالَ: فَذَهَبْتُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لَهُ، فَقَالَ: " يَا حَنْظَلَةُ لَوْ كُنْتُمْ تَكُونُونَ فِي بُيُوتِكُمْ كَمَا تَكُونُونَ عِنْدِي لَصَافَحَتْكُمُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ وَأَنْتُمْ عَلَى فُرُشِكُمْ وَبِالطُّرُقِ، يَا حَنْظَلَةُ سَاعَةً وَسَاعَةً " (٢)،

It is narrated from Hanzalah (may Allah be pleased with him) that once we were present in the service of the Noble Prophet (ﷺ). There, we began to discuss Paradise and Hell, and it felt as if we were seeing them with our own eyes. Then, when I returned to my family and children, I began to laugh and joke. Suddenly, I remembered what we had just been discussing. So, I left the house. On the way, I met Siddiq Akbar (may Allah be pleased with him), and I said, "I have become a hypocrite." He asked, "What happened?" I told him the whole story. He said, "We do the same." Then I went to the service of the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) and mentioned my condition. The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Hanzalah! If you were to remain in the same state as you are when you are with me, then the angels would begin to shake hands with you in your beds and on your paths. Hanzalah! It is a matter of time and circumstance."

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو دَاوُدَ الطَّيَالِسِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا عِمْرَانُ يَعْنِي الْقَطَّانَ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ الشِّخِّيرِ، عَنْ حَنْظَلَةَ الْأُسَيِّدِيِّ قَالَ: قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، إِنَّا إِذَا كُنَّا عِنْدَكَ كُنَّا، فَإِذَا فَارَقْنَاكَ كُنَّا عَلَى غَيْرِ ذَلِكَ، فَقَالَ: " وَالَّذِي، ، نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَوْ كُنْتُمْ تَكُونُونَ عَلَى الْحَالِ الَّذِي (١) تَكُونُونَ عَلَيْهَا عِنْدِي لَصَافَحَتْكُمُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ، وَلَأَظَلَّتْكُمْ بِأَجْنِحَتِهَا " (٢)، ،

It is narrated from Hanzalah (may Allah be pleased with him) that once I submitted in the court of Prophethood, "O Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)! When we are with you, our state is something else, and when we are separated from you, that state changes." The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said, "By Him in Whose hand is my soul, if you were to always remain in the same state as you are when you are with me, then the angels would begin to shake hands with you on your beds and on your paths, and they would shade you with their wings."
