3679. Narrated Jābir bin 'Abdullāh رضي الله عنه: The Prophet ﷺ said, "I saw myself (in a dream) entering Paradise, and behold! I saw Ar-Rumaisā', Abū Talḥa's wife. I heard footsteps. I asked, 'Who is it?' Somebody said, 'It is Bilāl.' Then I saw a palace and a lady sitting in its courtyard. I asked, 'For whom is this palace?' Somebody replied, 'It is for 'Umar.' I intended to enter it and see it, but I thought of your ('Umar's) Ghaīra(1) (and gave up the thought).'" 'Umar said, "Let my parents be sacrificed for you, O Allāh's Messenger! How dare I think of my Ghaīra (self-respect) being offended by you?"

3679 - حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجُ بْنُ مِنْهَالٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ العَزِيزِ بْنُ المَاجِشُونِ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ المُنْكَدِرِ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا، قَالَ: قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " رَأَيْتُنِي دَخَلْتُ الجَنَّةَ، فَإِذَا أَنَا بِالرُّمَيْصَاءِ، امْرَأَةِ أَبِي طَلْحَةَ، وَسَمِعْتُ خَشَفَةً، فَقُلْتُ: مَنْ هَذَا؟ فَقَالَ: هَذَا بِلاَلٌ، وَرَأَيْتُ قَصْرًا بِفِنَائِهِ جَارِيَةٌ، فَقُلْتُ: لِمَنْ هَذَا؟ فَقَالَ: لِعُمَرَ، فَأَرَدْتُ أَنْ أَدْخُلَهُ فَأَنْظُرَ إِلَيْهِ، فَذَكَرْتُ غَيْرَتَكَ " فَقَالَ عُمَرُ: بِأَبِي وَأُمِّي يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَعَلَيْكَ أَغَارُ
