Glad Tidings of Entering Paradise

SUMMARY: The Prophet (ﷺ) gave glad tidings of entering Paradise to three people, Abu Bakr, 'Umar and 'Uthman bin 'Affan.

Narrated Abu Musa: The Prophet ﷺ entered a garden and ordered me to guard its gate. A man came and asked permission to enter. The Prophet ﷺ said, "Admit him and give him the glad tidings of entering Paradise". Behold! It was Abu Bakr. Another man came and asked the permission to enter. The Prophet ﷺ said, "Admit him and give him the glad tidings of entering Paradise". Behold! It was 'Umar. Then another man came, asking the permission to enter. The Prophet ﷺ kept silent for a short while and then said, "Admit him and give him the glad tidings of entering Paradise with a calamity which will befall him". Behold! It was 'Uthman bin 'Affan'.Asim, in another narration, said that the Prophet ﷺ was sitting in a place where there was water, and he was uncovering both his knees or his knee, and when 'Uthman entered, he covered them (or it).
حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، عَنْ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ، عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى ـ رضى الله عنه ـ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ دَخَلَ حَائِطًا وَأَمَرَنِي بِحِفْظِ باب الْحَائِطِ، فَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ يَسْتَأْذِنُ، فَقَالَ ‏"‏ ائْذَنْ لَهُ وَبَشِّرْهُ بِالْجَنَّةِ ‏"‏‏.‏ فَإِذَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ، ثُمَّ جَاءَ آخَرُ يَسْتَأْذِنُ فَقَالَ ‏"‏ ائْذَنْ لَهُ وَبَشِّرْهُ بِالْجَنَّةِ ‏"‏‏.‏ فَإِذَا عُمَرُ، ثُمَّ جَاءَ آخَرُ يَسْتَأْذِنُ، فَسَكَتَ هُنَيْهَةً ثُمَّ قَالَ ‏"‏ ائْذَنْ لَهُ وَبَشِّرْهُ بِالْجَنَّةِ عَلَى بَلْوَى سَتُصِيبُهُ ‏"‏‏.‏ فَإِذَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عَفَّانَ‏.‏ قَالَ حَمَّادٌ وَحَدَّثَنَا عَاصِمٌ الأَحْوَلُ، وَعَلِيُّ بْنُ الْحَكَمِ، سَمِعَا أَبَا عُثْمَانَ، يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى، بِنَحْوِهِ، وَزَادَ فِيهِ عَاصِمٌ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ قَاعِدًا فِي مَكَانٍ فِيهِ مَاءٌ، قَدِ انْكَشَفَتْ عَنْ رُكْبَتَيْهِ أَوْ رُكْبَتِهِ، فَلَمَّا دَخَلَ عُثْمَانُ غَطَّاهَا‏.‏

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ giving glad tidings of entering paradise to three people; Abu Bakr, Umar and Uthman bin Affan. It is narrated by Abu Musa that the Prophet ﷺ entered a garden and asked him to guard its gate. When someone asked for permission to enter the garden, the Prophet ﷺ would give them glad tidings of entering paradise. The first person was Abu Bakr who was given this good news without any hesitation or delay. Then came Umar who was also given this good news without any hesitation or delay as well. Lastly came Uthman bin Affan who was given this good news but with a calamity that will befall him in the future which eventually happened when he was martyred during his caliphate reign due to some political unrest at that time. This hadith teaches us about how important it is for us to be grateful for all our blessings from Allah SWT and not take them for granted as we never know when they may be taken away from us due to certain circumstances beyond our control. It also teaches us about how we should always strive towards doing righteous deeds in order to gain Allah's pleasure so that we can receive His blessings in both worlds; here on earth and hereafter in paradise inshaAllah!
