187. It was narrated that Suhaib said: “The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ recited this Verse: ‘For those who have done good is the best reward and even more.’[1] Then he said: ‘When the people of Paradise enter Paradise, and the people of the Fire enter the Fire, a caller will cry out: “O people of Paradise! You have a covenant with Allāh and He wants to fulfill it.” They will say: “What is it? Has Allāh not made the Balance (of our good deeds) heavy, and made our faces bright, and admitted us to Paradise and saved us from Hell?" Then the Veil will be lifted and they will look upon Him, and by Allāh, Allāh will not give them anything that is more beloved to them or more delightful, than looking upon Him.'" (Sahih)

187 - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْقُدُّوسِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجٌ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ الْبُنَانِيِّ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى، عَنْ صُهَيْبٍ، قَالَ: تَلَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ: {لِلَّذِينَ أَحْسَنُوا الْحُسْنَى وَزِيَادَةٌ} [يونس: 26] ، وَقَالَ: " إِذَا دَخَلَ أَهْلُ الْجَنَّةِ الْجَنَّةَ، وَأَهْلُ النَّارِ النَّارِ، نَادَى مُنَادٍ: يَا أَهْلَ الْجَنَّةِ إِنَّ لَكُمْ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ مَوْعِدًا يُرِيدُ أَنْ يُنْجِزَكُمُوهُ، فَيَقُولُونَ: وَمَا هُوَ؟ أَلَمْ يُثَقِّلِ اللَّهُ مَوَازِينَنَا، وَيُبَيِّضْ وُجُوهَنَا، وَيُدْخِلْنَا الْجَنَّةَ، وَيُنْجِنَا مِنَ النَّارِ؟ قَالَ: فَيَكْشِفُ الْحِجَابَ، فَيَنْظُرُونَ إِلَيْهِ، فَوَاللَّهِ مَا أَعَطَاهُمُ اللَّهُ شَيْئًا أَحَبَّ إِلَيْهِمْ مِنَ النَّظَرِ - يَعْنِي إِلَيْهِ - وَلَا أَقَرَّ لِأَعْيُنِهِمْ "

Commentary

a. Looking upon Allāh is the greatest and most pleasing bounty to be showered over the believers lodged in Paradise, and they will relish it more than anything else. b. Admittance to the Paradise, in itself a blessing, will also be the means of having the pleasure of seeing their Lord.
