3542. Abū Hurairah narrated that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "If the believer knew what is with Allāh of punishment, none would hope for Paradise, and if the disbeliever knew what is with Allāh of mercy, none would despair of (attaining) Paradise." (Ṣāḥih) [Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Ḥasan, we do not know of it except as a narration of Al-'Alā' bin 'Abdur-Raḥmān, from his father, from Abū Hurairah.

Arabic text

٣٥٤٢ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌قُتَيْبَةُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ ، عَنِ ‌الْعَلَاءِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ : أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «لَوْ يَعْلَمُ الْمُؤْمِنُ مَا عِنْدَ اللهِ مِنَ الْعُقُوبَةِ مَا طَمِعَ فِي الْجَنَّةِ أَحَدٌ»، وَلَوْ يَعْلَمُ الْكَافِرُ مَا عِنْدَ اللهِ مِنَ الرَّحْمَةِ مَا قَنَطَ مِنَ الْجَنَّةِ أَحَدٌ. هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ. لَا نَعْرِفُهُ إِلَّا مِنْ حَدِيثِ الْعَلَاءِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ.

Commentary

Allāh's attributes of anger and wrath and forgiveness are boundless. If He starts calling into accounting, no one will be spared from punishment and if He wills to forgive, He can forgive all sins and faults, no one can dare to intervene.
