Riyad as-Salihin: Book 0, Hadith 488

Usamah bin Zaid (May Allah be pleased with them) reported: The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “I stood at the gate of Jannah and saw that most of those who enter it were poor, whereas the rich were held back; but those who were destined to go to Hell were ordered to be sent there (immediately).”.

وعن أسامة بن زيد، رضي الله عنهما، عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم قال‏:‏ ‏
“‏قمت على باب الجنة، فكان عامة من دخلها المساكين‏.‏ وأصحاب الجد محبوسون، غير أن أصحاب النار قد أمر بهم إلى النار‏”‏ ‏(‏‏(‏متفق عليه‏)‏‏)‏‏.‏

‏و‏(‏‏(‏‏ ‏الجد‏:الحظ والغنى‏.‏ وقد سبق بيان هذا الحديث في باب فضل الضعفة‏)‏‏)‏‏.‏
