Riyad as-Salihin, 1305
Ibn 'Abbas (May Allah be pleased with them) reported:
I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) saying, "Two eyes will never be touched by the fire of Hell; an eye which weeps out of Fear of Allah and an eye which spends the night in guarding in the Cause of Allah ." <b>[At-Tirmidhi]</b>.
وعن ابن عباس، رضي الله عنهما قال: سمعت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم يقول: “عينان لا تمسهما النار عين بكت من خشية الله، وعين باتت تحرس في سبيل الله" ((رواه الترمذي وقال: حديث حسن. )).
