157. It was narrated that Bara' bin 'Azib said: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ was given a gift of a length of silk fabric. The people started passing it around to one another. The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'Are you admiring this?' They said: 'Yes, O Messenger of Allāh.' He said: 'By the One in Whose Hand is my soul! The handkerchief of Sa'd bin Mu'adh in Paradise is better than this.'" (Sahih)

Arabic text

157 - حَدَّثَنَا هَنَّادُ بْنُ السَّرِيِّ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْأَحْوَصِ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ بْنِ عَازِبٍ، قَالَ: أُهْدِيَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ سَرَقَةٌ مِنْ حَرِيرٍ، فَجَعَلَ الْقَوْمُ يَتَدَاوَلُونَهَا بَيْنَهُمْ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «أَتَعْجَبُونَ مِنْ هَذَا؟» فَقَالُوا لَهُ: نَعَمْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، فَقَالَ: «وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ، لَمَنَادِيلُ سَعْدِ بْنِ مُعَاذٍ فِي الْجَنَّةِ خَيْرٌ مِنْ هَذَا»

Commentary

The Hadith affirms that Sa'd bin Mu'adh ﷺ will not only be housed in Paradise, but will also receive superior blessings there. Even the most extravagant article of this world cannot match the ordinary item of Paradise
