Sunan Ibn Majah 4321 (Book 37, Hadith 222) #33677
The Reward of Faithful Suffering

SUMMARY: On the Day of Resurrection, those who lived luxurious lives and disbelieved will be dipped in Hell, while those who suffered hardship and believed will be dipped in Paradise.

It was narrated from Anas bin Malik that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "On the Day of Resurrection the disbeliever who lived the most luxurious will be brought, and it will be said: 'Dip him once in Hell.’ So he will be dipped in it, then it will be said to him: 'O so- and-so, have you every enjoyed any pleasure?’ He will say: 'No, I have never enjoyed any pleasure.’ Then the believer who suffered the most hardship and trouble will be brought and it will be said: 'Dip him once in Paradise.’ So he will be dipped in it and it will be said to him: 'O so-and-so, have you ever suffered any hardship or trouble?’ He will say: 'I have never suffered any hardship or trouble.’"
حَدَّثَنَا الْخَلِيلُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ الْحَرَّانِيُّ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ الطَّوِيلِ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ ﷺ ـ ‏ "‏ يُؤْتَى يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ بِأَنْعَمِ أَهْلِ الدُّنْيَا مِنَ الْكُفَّارِ فَيُقَالُ اغْمِسُوهُ فِي النَّارِ غَمْسَةً ‏.‏ فَيُغْمَسُ فِيهَا ثُمَّ يُقَالُ لَهُ أَىْ فُلاَنُ هَلْ أَصَابَكَ نَعِيمٌ قَطُّ فَيَقُولُ لاَ مَا أَصَابَنِي نَعِيمٌ قَطُّ ‏.‏ وَيُؤْتَى بِأَشَدِّ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ضُرًّا وَبَلاَءً ‏.‏ فَيُقَالُ اغْمِسُوهُ غَمْسَةً فِي الْجَنَّةِ ‏.‏ فَيُغْمَسُ فِيهَا غَمْسَةً فَيُقَالُ لَهُ أَىْ فُلاَنُ هَلْ أَصَابَكَ ضُرٌّ قَطُّ أَوْ بَلاَءٌ فَيَقُولُ مَا أَصَابَنِي قَطُّ ضُرٌّ وَلاَ بَلاَءٌ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith speaks to the importance of faith and suffering for a greater reward. It tells us that on the Day of Resurrection, those who have lived luxurious lives but disbelieved will be brought before Allah and dipped once in Hell. They will not have experienced any pleasure or joy during their life on earth. On the other hand, believers who have suffered hardship and trouble throughout their life on earth will also be brought before Allah and dipped once in Paradise. They too would not have experienced any hardship or trouble during their life on earth as they were rewarded for their faithfulness with eternal bliss in Paradise. This hadith teaches us that although we may suffer hardships here on Earth due to our faithfulness to Allah, we can look forward to a greater reward from Him if we remain steadfast in our belief until death.
