Question

Is this narration authentic?

إن في الجنة غرفا، يرى ظاهرها من باطنها، وباطنها من ظاهرها، أعدها الله لمن أطعم الطعام، وأفشى السلام، وصلى بالليل، والناس نيام.

 

Answer

Imams Ibn Khuzaymah and Ibn Hibban (rahimahumallah) have recorded this Hadith on the authority of Sayyiduna Abu Malik Al ‘Ash’ari (radiyallahu ‘anhu) and have declared it authentic.

(Sahih Ibn Khuzaymah, Hadith: 2137 and Sahih Ibn Hibban; Al Ihsan, Hadith: 509. Also see: Sunan Tirmidhi, Hadith: 1984)

 

Translation

There are rooms in Jannah, [which are transparent]. Allah Ta’ala has prepared them for those who feed others, spread salam and offer Salah at night when others are asleep.

 

And Allah Ta’ala Knows best.
