Sahih al-Bukhari 3192 (Book 59, Hadith 3) #3050
Creation and the Afterlife

SUMMARY: The Prophet (ﷺ) gave a long lecture about the beginning of creation and how people will enter Paradise or Hell.

Narrated 'Umar: One day the Prophet stood up amongst us for a long period and informed us about the beginning of creation (and talked about everything in detail) till he mentioned how the people of Paradise will enter their places and the people of Hell will enter their places. Some remembered what he had said, and some forgot it.
وَرَوَى عِيسَى، عَنْ رَقَبَةَ، عَنْ قَيْسِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ، عَنْ طَارِقِ بْنِ شِهَابٍ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عُمَرَ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ يَقُولُ قَامَ فِينَا النَّبِيُّ مَقَامًا، فَأَخْبَرَنَا عَنْ بَدْءِ الْخَلْقِ حَتَّى دَخَلَ أَهْلُ الْجَنَّةِ مَنَازِلَهُمْ، وَأَهْلُ النَّارِ مَنَازِلَهُمْ، حَفِظَ ذَلِكَ مَنْ حَفِظَهُ، وَنَسِيَهُ مَنْ نَسِيَهُ‏.‏

EXPLANATIONS:
In this hadith narrated by 'Umar, the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ spoke about the beginning of creation and how people will enter either Paradise or Hell in the afterlife. He spoke for a long period of time so that his followers could remember what he said. This hadith teaches us that we should be mindful of our actions as they will determine where we go in the afterlife. We should strive to do good deeds so that we can be rewarded with entry into Paradise. On the other hand, if we commit sins then it is likely that we will end up in Hell after death. Therefore it is important to remember this hadith and act accordingly so that our fate can be determined by Allah on Judgment Day.
