part three
third hadith (83)
The Messenger of God, may God give him blessings and peace, said:
A man of the people of Paradise shall be brought forward, and God
will ask: “O child of Adam, how do you ¥nd your abode?”
He will reply: “My Lord, it is the best of abodes.”
God will say: “Ask and it shall be granted.”
The man will reply: “I ask that You send me back to the world
to be killed ten times over for Your sake.” For he will have seen the
bounty apportioned to the martyr.
Reported by al-Nas夨, according to Anas.
fourth hadith (84)
The Messenger of God, may God give him blessings and peace, said:
Indeed God has angels who roam the roads, seeking out the
people of Invocation (dhikr). When they ¥nd a group invoking
God, they call out: “Come hither to what you have been looking
for!” And they surround them with their wings, reaching up to the
lowest heaven.
Their Lord questions them (yet He knows better than they):
“What do My servants say?”
They reply: “They glorify and magnify You; they praise You
and repeat Your praises.”
He asks: “Have they seen Me?”
They reply: “No, by God, they have not seen You.”
Then He asks: “And how would it be if they were to see Me?”
