Hadith 30:1279
Muhammad ibn Bishr narrated to us, Muhammad ibn ‘Amr narrated to us, Abu Salamah narrated to us, from Abu Hurairah, who said: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "When Allah created Paradise and Hellfire, He sent Gabriel and said: 'Look at them and at what I have prepared for their inhabitants within them.' So he came and looked at them and at what Allah had prepared for their inhabitants within them. He returned to Him and said: 'By Your Might, no one who hears of it will fail to enter it.' So He commanded that it be veiled with hardships. He said: 'Return to it and look at it and at what I have prepared for its inhabitants within them.' He said: So he returned to it, and behold, it had been veiled with hardships. He returned to Him and said: 'By Your Might, I fear that no one will enter it.' He said: 'Go to the Hellfire and look at it and at what I have prepared for its inhabitants within them.' So he came to it and looked at it and at what He had prepared for its inhabitants within them, and behold, it was [piled] upon itself, one part over another. He returned and said: 'By Your Might, no one who hears of it will enter it.' So He commanded that it be surrounded with desires. He returned to Him and said: 'By Your Might, I fear that no one will be saved from it, but that he will enter it.'"
حدثنا محمد بن بشر , حدثنا محمد بن عمرو , حدثنا أبو سلمة، عن أبي هريرة، قال: قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: " لما خلق الله الجنة والنار، أرسل جبريل، قال: انظر إليها وإلى ما أعددت لأهلها فيها، فجاء فنظر إليها وإلى ما أعد الله لأهلها فيها، فرجع إليه، فقال: وعزتك، لا يسمع بها أحد إلا دخلها، فأمر بها فحجبت بالمكاره، قال: ارجع إليها فانظر إليها وإلى ما أعددت لأهلها فيها، قال: فرجع إليها فإذا هي قد حجبت بالمكاره، فرجع إليه، فقال: وعزتك، قد خشيت أن لا يدخلها أحد، قال: اذهب إلى النار فانظر إليها وإلى ما أعددت لأهلها فيها ، فجاءها فنظر إليها وإلى ما أعد لأهلها فيها، فإذا هي يركب بعضها بعضا، فرجع، فقال: وعزتك ، لا يسمع بها أحد فيدخلها، فأمر بها فحفت بالشهوات، فرجع إليه ، قال: وعزتك، لقد خشيت أن لا ينجو منها أحد إلا دخلها "
