Vol 1, Book 12, No 463:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
The people said, "O Allah's messenger! Shall we see our lord on the day of resurrection?" he replied "Do you have any doubt in seeing the full moon on a clear night?" They Replied "No O Allah's Messenger!" He Said, "Do you have any doubt in seeing the sun when there are no clouds?" They replied in the negative. He said, "You will see Allah in the same way on the day of resurrection, people will be gathered and he will order the people to follow what they used to worship. So some will follow the sun, some will follow the moon, and some will follow other deities; and only this nation (Muslims) will be left with its hypocrites. Allah will come to them and say, 'I am your lord.' They will say, 'We shall stay in this place until our lord comes to us and when our lord will come, we will recognize him.' Then Allah will come to them again and say, 'I am your lord.' They will say, "You are our lord." Allah will call them and As-Sirat Bridge will be laid across hell and I (Muhammad) shall be the First amongst the apostles to cross it with my followers. Nobody except The Apostles will then be able to speak and they will be saying 'O Allah! Save us O Allah Save us.'
There will be hooks like the thorns of Sa'dan in Hell. Have you seen the thorns of Sa'dan? The people said "Yes" He said, "These hooks will be like the thorns of Sa'dan but nobody except Allah knows their greatness in size and these will entangle the people according to their deeds; some of them will fall and stay in hell forever; others will receive punishment ( torn into small pieces) and will get out of hell, till when Allah intends mercy on whomever he likes amongst the people of Hell, He will order the angels to take them out of hell those who worshipped none but him alone. The angels will take then out by recognizing them from the traces of prostrations, for Allah has forbidden the (Hell) fire to eat away those traces. So they will come out of the Fire, it will eat away from the whole of the human body except the marks of prostrations. At the time they will come out of the fire as mere skeletons. The Water of Life will be poured on them and as a result they will grow like the seeds growing on the bank of flowing water.
Then when Allah had finished from the judgments amongst his creations, one man will be left between Hell and Paradise and he will be the last man from the people of Hell to enter Paradise He will be facing the Hell, and will say, "O Allah! Turn my face from the fire as its wind had dried me and its steam has burnt me" Allah will Ask Him, "Will you ask for anything more in case this favor is granted to you?" He will say "No by your (Honor) Power!" And he will of the pledges and the covenants. Allah will then turn his face from the fire. When he will face Paradise and will see its charm, he will remain quiet as long as Allah will. He then will say, "O my Lord! Let me go to the gates of Paradise." Allah will ask him 'didn't you give pledges and make covenants (to the effect) that you would not ask for anything more than what you requested at first?' He will say, " O my Lord don’t make me the most wretched, amongst your creatures." Allah will say, '' If this request is granted, Will you ask for anything else?'' He will say "No by your (Honor) Power! I shall not ask for anything else" Then he will give his lord what he will of the pledges and covenants. Allah will then let him go to the gates off the Paradise. On reaching them and seeing its life, charm and pleasure, He will remain quiet as long as Allah wills and then will say, "O my Lord! Let me enter Paradise." Allah will say, ' May Allah be merciful unto you, O Son of Adam! How treacherous you are! Haven’t you made covenants and given pledges that you will not for anything more that what you have been given?'
He will say, 'O my lord! Do not make me the most wretched amongst your creatures" and will ask him to request as much as he likes. He will do so until all his desires have remind him and when all his desires and wishes have been fulfilled, Allah will say ' All this Granted to you and a similar amount besides.'
