2247 – ʿUbayd Allah ibn Muhammad ibn Ahmad informed us; Muhammad ibn Jaʿfar informed us; Bishr ibn Maṭar narrated to us; Sufyan ibn ʿUyaynah—through Abu al-Zinad, from al-Aʿraj, from Abu Hurayrah—reports that the Prophet ﷺ said:

“Allah, the Exalted, has declared: ‘I have made ready for My righteous servants what no eye has ever seen, no ear has ever heard, and what has never occurred to the heart of any human.’ The confirmation of this is found in the Book of Allah: ‘No soul knows what comfort of eyes is kept hidden for them as a reward for what they used to do’ (Surah al-Sajdah 32:17).”

This narration is recorded by al-Bukhari and Muslim.
