Question

Is this Hadith authentic?

Nabi (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said:

“When I test My slave regarding the two things he loves [i.e., his eyes] and he remains patient [anticipating the rewards Allah has promised for sabr and enduring difficulties], I repay him for them with Jannah”

 

Answer

Imam Bukhari (rahimahullah) has recorded this narration on the authority of Sayyiduna Anas ibn Malik (radiyallahu ‘anhu). The Hadith is therefore authentic.

(Sahih Bukhari, Hadith: 5653)

 

And Allah Ta’ala Knows best.
