Sunan Ibn Majah 4339 (Book 37, Hadith 240) #33695
Last Man to Enter Paradise

SUMMARY: The hadith is about a man who will be the last to enter Paradise and will be given more than what he expected.

It was narrated from 'Abdullah bin Mas’ud that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "I know the last of the people of Hell who will be brought forth from it, and the last of the people of Paradise to be admitted to Paradise. (It is) a man who will emerge from Hell crawling, and it will be said to him: 'Go and enter Paradise.’ He will come to it and it will be made to appear to him as if it is full.’ Allah will say: 'Go and enter Paradise.’ He will come to it and it will appear to him as if it is full. So he will say: 'O Lord, I found it full.’ Allah will say: 'Go and enter Paradise.’ He will come to it and it will be made to appear to him as if it is full. So he will say: 'O Lord, I found it full.’ Allah will say: 'Go and enter Paradise, for you will have the like of the world and ten times more, or you will have ten times the like of the world.’ He will say: 'Are You mocking me, or are You laughing at me, when You are the Sovereign?’" He said: "And I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ smiling so broadly that his molar teeth could be seen". And he used to say: "This is the lowest of the people of Paradise in status".
حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ عَبِيدَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ ﷺ ـ ‏ "‏ إِنِّي لأَعْلَمُ آخِرَ أَهْلِ النَّارِ خُرُوجًا مِنْهَا وَآخِرَ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ دُخُولاً الْجَنَّةَ ‏.‏ رَجُلٌ يَخْرُجُ مِنَ النَّارِ حَبْوًا فَيُقَالُ لَهُ اذْهَبْ فَادْخُلِ الْجَنَّةَ ‏.‏ فَيَأْتِيهَا فَيُخَيَّلُ إِلَيْهِ أَنَّهَا مَلأَى فَيَرْجِعُ فَيَقُولُ يَا رَبِّ وَجَدْتُهَا مَلأَى ‏.‏ فَيَقُولُ اللَّهُ اذْهَبْ فَادْخُلِ الْجَنَّةَ ‏.‏ فَيَأْتِيهَا فَيُخَيَّلُ إِلَيْهِ أَنَّهَا مَلأَى فَيَرْجِعُ فَيَقُولُ يَا رَبِّ وَجَدْتُهَا مَلأَى ‏.‏ فَيَقُولُ اللَّهُ سُبْحَانَهُ اذْهَبْ فَادْخُلِ الْجَنَّةَ ‏.‏ فَيَأْتِيهَا فَيُخَيَّلُ إِلَيْهِ أَنَّهَا مَلأَى فَيَرْجِعُ فَيَقُولُ يَا رَبِّ إِنَّهَا مَلأَى ‏.‏ فَيَقُولُ اللَّهُ اذْهَبْ فَادْخُلِ الْجَنَّةَ ‏.‏ فَإِنَّ لَكَ مِثْلَ الدُّنْيَا وَعَشَرَةَ أَمْثَالِهَا - أَوْ إِنَّ لَكَ مِثْلَ عَشَرَةِ أَمْثَالِ الدُّنْيَا - فَيَقُولُ أَتَسْخَرُ بِي - أَوْ أَتَضْحَكُ بِي - وَأَنْتَ الْمَلِكُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ فَلَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ـ ﷺ ـ ضَحِكَ حَتَّى بَدَتْ نَوَاجِذُهُ ‏.‏ فَكَانَ يُقَالُ هَذَا أَدْنَى أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ مَنْزِلَةً

QUICK LESSONS:
Obey God's commands and do good deeds.

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith speaks of a man who will be the last person to enter Paradise. He will come out of Hell crawling and when he reaches Paradise it will appear full. Allah then tells him that he can have either the like of the world or ten times more than that. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ smiled so broadly at this point that his molar teeth could be seen. This shows us how much joy Allah has in rewarding those who do good deeds and how generous He is with His rewards for those who obey Him. It also teaches us that even if we think we are not worthy of something great from Allah, He may still surprise us with something even better than what we expect!
