According to Jåbir ibn ¡Abdallåh, who received it from the Prophet, may God give
him blessings and peace, who received it from Gabriel, who received it from God:
God, ever mighty and majestic is He, says: “Indeed this is a religion
with which I Myself am well-pleased. Nothing be¥ts it but openhanded
generosity and nobility of character. So honour it with these
two whenever you follow it.”
eighteenth hadith (18)
According to Íuhayb, the Prophet, may God give him blessings and peace, said:
When the people of the Garden have entered the Garden, God,
ever exalted is He, will say: “Do you want for anything more that
I may give you?”
They will reply: “Have You not illumined our faces? Have you not
caused us to enter the Garden and delivered us from the Fire?”
The Prophet continued:
Then He will lift the veil, for they cannot be given anything that
they would love more than vision of their Lord, ever mighty and
majestic is He.
Then he recited this verse:
“The best, and more besides, is destined for those who strive with
excellence.” 5
