4744. It was narrated from Abū Hurairah that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "When Allāh created Paradise, He said to Jibrīl: 'Go and look at it.' So he went and looked at it, then he came back and said: 'O Lord, by Your glory, no one will ever hear of it but he will enter it.' Then He surrounded it with difficult things and said: 'O Jibrīl, go and look at it.' So he went and looked at it, then he came back and said: 'O Lord, I am afraid that no one will ever enter it.'" He ﷺ said: "When Allāh created Hell he said: 'O Jibrīl, go and look at it.' So he went and looked at it, then he came back and said: 'O Lord, by Your glory, no one will ever hear of it but he will not enter it.' He surrounded it with desirable things, then He said: 'O Jibrīl, go and look at it.' So he went and looked at it, then he came back and said: 'O Lord, by Your glory, I am afraid that there will be no one who will not enter it.'" Hasan

4744 - حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: " لَمَّا خَلَقَ اللَّهُ الْجَنَّةَ قَالَ لِجِبْرِيلَ: اذْهَبْ فَانْظُرْ إِلَيْهَا، فَذَهَبَ فَنَظَرَ إِلَيْهَا، ثُمَّ جَاءَ، فَقَالَ: أَيْ رَبِّ وَعِزَّتِكَ لَا يَسْمَعُ بِهَا أَحَدٌ إِلَّا دَخَلَهَا، ثُمَّ حَفَّهَا بِالْمَكَارِهِ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : يَا جِبْرِيلُ اذْهَبْ فَانْظُرْ إِلَيْهَا، فَذَهَبَ فَنَظَرَ إِلَيْهَا، ثُمَّ جَاءَ فَقَالَ: أَيْ رَبِّ وَعِزَّتِكَ لَقَدْ خَشِيتُ أَنْ لَا يَدْخُلَهَا أَحَدٌ " قَالَ: " فَلَمَّا خَلَقَ اللَّهُ النَّارَ قَالَ: يَا جِبْرِيلُ اذْهَبْ فَانْظُرْ إِلَيْهَا، فَذَهَبَ فَنَظَرَ إِلَيْهَا، ثُمَّ جَاءَ فَقَالَ: أَيْ رَبِّ وَعِزَّتِكَ لَا يَسْمَعُ بِهَا أَحَدٌ فَيَدْخُلُهَا، فَحَفَّهَا بِالشَّهَوَاتِ ثُمَّ قَالَ: يَا جِبْرِيلُ اذْهَبْ فَانْظُرْ إِلَيْهَا، فَذَهَبَ فَنَظَرَ إِلَيْهَا، ثُمَّ جَاءَ فَقَالَ: أَيْ رَبِّ وَعِزَّتِكَ لَقَدْ خَشِيتُ أَنْ لَا يَبْقَى أَحَدٌ إِلَّا دَخَلَهَا "
