Sahih al-Bukhari 4780 (Book 65, Hadith 302) #4563
Rewards Beyond Imagination

SUMMARY: Allah has prepared for His pious worshipers rewards that are beyond what anyone can imagine.

Narrated Abu Huraira: The Prophet, said, "Allah said, 'I have prepared for My pious worshipers such things as no eye has ever seen, no ear has ever heard of, and nobody has ever thought of. All that is reserved, besides which, all that you have seen, is nothing". Then he recited:-- 'No soul knows what is kept hidden (in reserve) for them of joy as a reward for what they used to do'. (32:17)
حَدَّثَنِي إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ نَصْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو صَالِحٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ‏"‏ يَقُولُ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى أَعْدَدْتُ لِعِبَادِي الصَّالِحِينَ مَا لاَ عَيْنٌ رَأَتْ، وَلاَ أُذُنٌ سَمِعَتْ، وَلاَ خَطَرَ عَلَى قَلْبِ بَشَرٍ، ذُخْرًا، بَلْهَ مَا أُطْلِعْتُمْ عَلَيْهِ ‏"‏‏.‏ ثُمَّ قَرَأَ ‏{‏فَلاَ تَعْلَمُ نَفْسٌ مَا أُخْفِيَ لَهُمْ مِنْ قُرَّةِ أَعْيُنٍ جَزَاءً بِمَا كَانُوا يَعْمَلُونَ‏}‏

QUICK LESSONS:
Strive to do your best in this life so you can be rewarded with something far greater than anything your eyes have seen or your ears have heard or even thought of in the next life.

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith speaks of the rewards that Allah has prepared for those who are pious and devoted to Him. It is mentioned in the Quran that no one knows what joy awaits them as a reward for their good deeds. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ was informing us of this great reward from Allah and encouraging us to strive to be among those who will receive it. He was reminding us that all the worldly pleasures we see around us are nothing compared to what awaits us in the hereafter if we remain devoted and faithful servants of Allah. We should strive to do our best in this life so that we can be rewarded with something far greater than anything our eyes have seen or our ears have heard or even thought of in the next life.
