twenty-second hadith (22)
According to ¡Al¨ ibn Ab¨ Êålib, the Messenger of God, may God give him blessings
and peace, said:
God, ever mighty and majestic is He, says:
“He who hopes for other than Me does not know Me.
“He who does not know Me does not worship Me.
“He who does not worship Me has incurred My Displeasure.
“He who fears other than Me, My Vengeance befalls him.”
twenty-third hadith (23)
According to Ab¬ Hurayra, the Messenger of God, may God give him blessings and
peace, said whilst relating a ¢ad¨th concerning the ¥nal judgement of the servants
on the Day of Resurrection:
One man remains, whose face is turned towards the Fire. He will
be the last of the people of Paradise to enter Paradise. He cries:
“O my Lord, avert my face from the Fire, for its stench tortures
me and its heat consumes me.” He continues to beseech God for
as long as He wishes him to.
Then God, ever blessed and exalted is He, will say: “If I granted
you this, would you ask anything else of Me?”
“No, I shall ask nothing else,” he replies, and he makes whatever
commitments and pledges to his Lord, ever mighty and majestic is
He, that God wants him to make. Then God averts his face from
the Fire.
