حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا الْمُحَارِبِيُّ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏ "‏ يَدْخُلُ فُقَرَاءُ الْمُسْلِمِينَ الْجَنَّةَ قَبْلَ أَغْنِيَائِهِمْ بِنِصْفِ يَوْمٍ وَهُوَ خَمْسُمِائَةِ عَامٍ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ وَهَذَا حَدِيثٌ صَحِيحٌ ‏.‏
"The poor Muslims are admitted into Paradise before their rich by half a day. And that is five hundred years."
Narrated by Abu Hurairah narrated that the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said:

Context

In this hadith, the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) reveals that the poor Muslims will enter Paradise before the wealthy by a significant margin, specifically half a day, which equates to five hundred years. This statement underscores the value of humility and the spiritual elevation of the less fortunate in the eyes of Allah.

Modern Application

This principle encourages acts of charity and compassion towards those in need. It serves as a reminder that wealth does not determine one's worth in the sight of Allah, and that helping the less fortunate can lead to greater rewards in the hereafter.

Topics

This hadith is tagged with Paradise and Reward of Deeds because it highlights the distinction in the afterlife based on one's actions and status, particularly emphasizing the rewards for the poor.
