Sunan Ibn Majah: Book 0, Hadith 179

It was narrated that Abu Sa’eed said: “We said: ‘O Messenger of Allah! Will we see our Lord?’ He said: ‘Do you crowd one another to see the sun at mid-day when there are no clouds?’ We said: ‘No.’ He said: ‘Do you crowd one another to see the moon on the night when it is full and there are no clouds?’ We said: ‘No.’ He said: ‘You will not crowd one another to see Him, just as you do not crowd to see these two things.'”

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلاَءِ الْهَمْدَانِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ إِدْرِيسَ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ السَّمَّانِ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ، قَالَ قُلْنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَنَرَى رَبَّنَا قَالَ ‏”‏ تَضَامُّونَ فِي رُؤْيَةِ الشَّمْسِ فِي الظَّهِيرَةِ فِي غَيْرِ سَحَابٍ ‏”‏ ‏.‏ قُلْنَا لاَ ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏”‏ فَتَضَارُّونَ فِي رُؤْيَةِ الْقَمَرِ لَيْلَةَ الْبَدْرِ فِي غَيْرِ سَحَابٍ ‏”‏ ‏.‏ قَالُوا لاَ ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏”‏ إِنَّكُمْ لاَ تَضَارُّونَ فِي رُؤْيَتِهِ إِلاَّ كَمَا تَضَارُّونَ فِي رُؤْيَتِهِمَا ‏”‏ ‏.‏

Sunan Ibn Majah: Book 0, Hadith 179
Sahih (Darussalam)

 
The above hadith is from the Sunan Ibn Majah collection of hadiths. As a key component of the Kutub al-Sittah, Sunan Ibn Majah was authored by the Islamic scholar Ibn Majah (d. 886 CE) and includes roughly 4,000 prophetic traditions. The scope of the work is comprehensive, covering essential areas such as theological beliefs, laws governing worship, moral principles, and various societal matters. It is important to note that while the collection is highly valued, its status is distinct from the other five major books. Scholars frequently place it in a separate category because its contents include a proportion of weak or disputed narrations not found in the more stringent compilations. However, its comprehensive nature ensures its continued importance as a scholarly resource.
