Treasures of Paradise

Hadith: Arabic Text followed by English Translation.

عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى، أَنَّهُمْ كَانُوا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَهُمْ يَصْعَدُونَ فِي ثَنِيَّةٍ – قَالَ – فَجَعَلَ رَجُلٌ كُلَّمَا عَلاَ ثَنِيَّةً نَادَى لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَ اللَّهُ وَاللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ – قَالَ – فَقَالَ نَبِيُّ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم

إِنَّكُمْ لاَ تُنَادُونَ أَصَمَّ وَلاَ غَائِبًا ‏”‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ فَقَالَ ‏”‏ يَا أَبَا مُوسَى – أَوْ يَا عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ قَيْسٍ – أَلاَ أَدُلُّكَ عَلَى كَلِمَةٍ مِنْ كَنْزِ الْجَنَّةِ ‏”‏ ‏.‏ قُلْتُ مَا هِيَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ ‏”‏ لاَ حَوْلَ وَلاَ قُوَّةَ إِلاَّ بِاللَّهِ ‏”‏

رواه مسلم 2704

‏ ‏‏

Abu Musa reported that he (and his other companions) were climbing upon the hillock along with Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) and when any person climbed up, he pronounced (loudly):

” There is no god but Allah, Allah is the Greatest.” Thereupon Allah’s Apostle (ﷺ) said:

Verily, you are not supplicating One Who is deaf or absent.

He said: Abu Musa or Abdullah b Qais, should I not direct you to the words (which form) the treasure of Paradise?

I said: Allah’s Messenger, what are these?

He said:” There is no might and no power but that of Allah.”
