حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ حُجْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُسْهِرٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ، عَنِ النُّعْمَانِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ، قَالَ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏

"‏ إِنَّ فِي الْجَنَّةِ غُرَفًا تُرَى ظُهُورُهَا مِنْ بُطُونِهَا وَبُطُونُهَا مِنْ ظُهُورِهَا ‏"‏ ‏.‏ فَقَامَ أَعْرَابِيٌّ فَقَالَ لِمَنْ هِيَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ ‏"‏ لِمَنْ أَطَابَ الْكَلاَمَ وَأَطْعَمَ الطَّعَامَ وَأَدَامَ الصِّيَامَ وَصَلَّى لِلَّهِ بِاللَّيْلِ وَالنَّاسُ نِيَامٌ ‏"

'Ali narrated that the Messenger of Allah said:

"Indeed in Paradise there are chambers, whose outside can be seen from their inside, and their inside can be seen from their outside." A Bedouin stood and said : 'Who are they for, O Messenger of Allah?" He said: "For those who speak well, feed others, fast regularly, and perform salat [for Allah] during the night while the people sleep."

Reported by At-Tirmidhi (No. 1984, 2527) and Ahmad (No. 1268).

قَوْلُهُ : ( عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ ) بْنِ الْحَارِثِ الْوَاسِطِيِّ قَالَ الْكُوفِيُّ ضَعِيفٌ مِنْ السَّابِعَةِ. قَوْلُهُ : ( إِنَّ فِي الْجَنَّةِ غُرَفًا ) جَمْعُ غُرْفَةٍ , أَيْ عَلَالِيَّ فِي غَايَةٍ مِنْ اللَّطَافَةِ وَنِهَايَةٍ مِنْ الصَّفَاءِ وَالنَّظَافَةِ ( تُرَى ) بِالْبِنَاءِ لِلْمَفْعُولِ ( ظُهُورُهَا مِنْ بُطُونِهَا وَبُطُونُهَا مِنْ ظُهُورِهَا ) لِكَوْنِهَا شَفَّافَةً لَا تَحْجُبُ مَا وَرَاءَهَا. وَفِي رِوَايَةِ أَحْمَدَ وَابْنِ حِبَّانَ وَالْبَيْهَقِيِّ : " يُرَى ظَاهِرُهَا مِنْ بَاطِنِهَا وَبَاطِنُهَا مِنْ ظَاهِرِهَا" ( لِمَنْ أَطَابَ الْكَلَامَ ) وَرُوِيَ أَلَانَ. وَرُوِيَ : أَلْيَنَ كَأَجْوَدَ عَلَى الْأَصْلِ , وَرُوِيَ : لَيَّنَ بِتَشْدِيدِ الْيَاءِ , وَالْم…
