حَدَّثَنَا هَنَّادٌ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنِ الْمَعْرُورِ بْنِ سُوَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏

"‏ إِنِّي لأَعْرِفُ آخِرَ أَهْلِ النَّارِ خُرُوجًا مِنَ النَّارِ وَآخِرَ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ دُخُولاً الْجَنَّةَ يُؤْتَى بِرَجُلٍ فَيَقُولُ سَلُوا عَنْ صِغَارِ ذُنُوبِهِ وَاخْبَئُوا كِبَارَهَا ‏.‏ فَيُقَالُ لَهُ عَمِلْتَ كَذَا وَكَذَا يَوْمَ كَذَا وَكَذَا عَمِلْتَ كَذَا وَكَذَا فِي يَوْمِ كَذَا وَكَذَا ‏.‏ قَالَ فَيُقَالُ لَهُ فَإِنَّ لَكَ مَكَانَ كُلِّ سَيِّئَةٍ حَسَنَةً ‏.‏ قَالَ فَيَقُولُ يَا رَبِّ لَقَدْ عَمِلْتُ أَشْيَاءَ مَا أَرَاهَا هَا هُنَا ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ فَلَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَضْحَكُ حَتَّى بَدَتْ نَوَاجِذُهُ ‏.‏

Abu Dharr narrated that the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said:

" I know the last of the people of the Fire to depart from the Fire and the last of the people of Paradise to enter Paradise. A man will be brought forth and He (s.a.w) will say: 'Ask about his small sins and hide his large sins.' So it will be said to him: 'Did you do this and that on such and such a day, did you do this and that on such- and – such a day?'” He said: “Then it will be said to him; 'For each of your sins you shall have a reward.'” He (s.a.w) said: “So he will say: 'O Lord! I have done things that I do not see here.'” He (Abu Dharr) said: “I saw the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) laugh until his molars were visible.” (Sahih)

Reported by At-Tirmidhi (No. 2596) and Ahmad (No. 20517).

قَوْلُهُ : ( عَنْ الْمَعْرُورِ بْنِ سُوَيْدٍ ) هُوَ بِالْعَيْنِ الْمُهْمَلَةِ وَالرَّاءِ الْمُكَرَّرَةِ. قَوْلُهُ : ( وَآخِرُ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ دُخُولًا الْجَنَّةَ ) أَيْ فِيهَا ( يُؤْتَى بِرَجُلٍ ) وَزَادَ مُسْلِمٌ : يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ ( فَيَقُولُ سَلُوا عَنْ صِغَارِ ذُنُوبِهِ ) وَفِي رِوَايَةِ مُسْلِمٍ : فَيُقَالُ اِعْرِضُوا عَلَيْهِ صِغَارَ ذُنُوبِهِ ( وَأَخْبِئُوا كِبَارَهَا ) ضُبِطَ فِي النُّسْخَةِ الْأَحْمَدِيَّةِ الْمَطْبُوعَةِ بِالْقَلَمِ بِفَتْحِ الْهَمْزَةِ وَكَسْرِ الْمُوَحَّدَةِ. وَقَالَ فِي هَامِشِهَا أَمْرٌ مِنْ الْإِخْبَاءِ وَهُوَ الْإِخْفَاءُ اِنْتَهَى. قُلْتُ : الظَّاهِرُ أَنَّهُ أَمْرٌ مِنْ الْخَبْءِ , قَالَ فِي الْقَامُوسِ : خَبَّأَهُ كَمَنَعَهُ سَتَرَهُ كَخَبَّاهُ وَاخْت…
