Riyad as-Salihin, 1893
Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) said:
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, "The lowest place of any of you in Jannah will be that Allah will tell him to express his wish. He will wish and wish again. Allah will then ask him: 'Have you expressed your wish?' He will answer: 'Yes, I have.' Allah will say: 'You will have what you have wished for and the like thereof along with it."' <b>[Muslim]</b>.
وعن أبي هريرة رضي الله عنه أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم قال:
إن أدنى مقعد أحدكم من الجنة أن يقول له: تمن فيتمنى ويتمنى، فيقول له: هل تمنيت؟ فيقول: نعم، فيقول له: فإن لك ما تمنيت ومثله معه
((رواه مسلم)).
