6642. Narrated 'Abdullāh bin Mas'ūd رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ: While Allāh's Messenger ﷺ was sitting, reclining his back against a Yemenite leather tent, he said to his Companions, "Will you be pleased to be one-fourth of the people of Paradise?" They said, "Yes." He said, "Won't you be pleased to be one-third of the people of Paradise?" They said, "Yes." He said, "By Him in Whose Hand Muḥammad's soul is, I hope that you will be half of the people of Paradise."
6642 - حَدَّثَنِي أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ، حَدَّثَنَا شُرَيْحُ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، سَمِعْتُ عَمْرَو بْنَ مَيْمُونٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، قَالَ: بَيْنَمَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مُضِيفٌ ظَهْرَهُ إِلَى قُبَّةٍ مِنْ أَدَمٍ يَمَانٍ، إِذْ قَالَ لِأَصْحَابِهِ: «أَتَرْضَوْنَ أَنْ تَكُونُوا رُبُعَ أَهْلِ الجَنَّةِ» قَالُوا: بَلَى، قَالَ: «أَفَلَمْ تَرْضَوْا أَنْ تَكُونُوا ثُلُثَ أَهْلِ الجَنَّةِ» قَالُوا: بَلَى، قَالَ: «فَوَالَّذِي نَفْسُ مُحَمَّدٍ بِيَدِهِ، إِنِّي لَأَرْجُو أَنْ تَكُونُوا نِصْفَ أَهْلِ الجَنَّةِ»
