مُسْنَدُ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ خَادِمِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ
Three-Narrator Ahadith 201
Anas ibn Mālik (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said:
“I reached the Sidrat al-Muntahā, and I saw that its berries were like clay pitchers [in size] and its leaves were like the ears of elephants. When that which Allah willed enveloped it, it transformed into rubies, or emeralds, or something of the like.” Reference: Musnad Aḥmad 201
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي عَدِيٍّ، عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «انْتَهَيْتُ إِلَى السِّدْرَةِ، فَإِذَا نَبْقُهَا مِثْلُ الْجِرَارِ، وَإِذَا وَرَقُهَا مِثْلُ آذَانِ الْفِيَلَةِ، فَلَمَّا غَشِيَهَا مِنْ أَمْرِ اللَّهِ مَا غَشِيَهَا، تَحَوَّلَتْ يَاقُوتًا أَوْ زُمُرُّدًا أَوْ نَحْوَ ذَلِكَ».
